The choice of spatial scales and spatial smoothness priors for various spatial patterns

open access: yesSpatial and Spatio-temporal Epidemiology, 2014
Given the drawbacks for using geo-political areas in mapping outcomes unrelated to geo-politics, a compromise is to aggregate and analyse data at the grid level. This has the advantage of allowing spatial smoothing and modelling at a biologically or physically relevant scale.

On the spatial scale of industrial agglomerations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Urban Economics, 2015
Abstract Standard approaches to studying industrial agglomeration have been in terms of scalar measures of agglomeration within each industry. But such measures often fail to distinguish spatial scales of agglomeration. In a previous paper, Mori and Smith (2014) proposed a pair of quantitative measures for distinguishing both the scale and degree of ...

A balanced view of scale in spatial statistical analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Concepts of spatial scale, such as extent, grain, resolution, range, footprint, support and cartographic ratio are not interchangeable. Because of the potential confusion among the definitions of these terms, we suggest that authors avoid the term "scale"

Spatial models for context-aware indoor navigation systems: A survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper surveys indoor spatial models developed for research fields ranging from mobile robot mapping, to indoor location-based services (LBS), and most recently to context-aware navigation services applied to indoor environments.

Spatial and temporal scale framing of a decision on the future of the Mactaquac Dam in New Brunswick, Canada

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2017
Many large dams are coming to the end of their lifespans and decisions must be made about whether to rebuild/refurbish or remove them, which will have different implications across temporal and spatial scales.

Scale matters: a survey of the concepts of scale used in spatial disciplines

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Remote Sensing, 2019
Scale is a critical factor when studying patterns and the processes that cause them. A variety of approaches have been used to define the concept of scale but confusion and ambiguities remain regarding scale types and their definitions. The objectives of

Scaling Laws in Spatial Network Formation [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2016
Geometric constraints impact the formation of a broad range of spatial networks, from amino acid chains folding to proteins structures to rearranging particle aggregates. How the network of interactions dynamically self-organizes in such systems is far from fully understood. Here, we analyze a class of spatial network formation processes by introducing

Measuring Physical Neighborhood Quality Related to Health

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences, 2015
Although sociodemographic factors are one aspect of understanding the effects of neighborhood environments on health, equating neighborhood quality with socioeconomic status ignores the important role of physical neighborhood attributes.
