  1. 1. Hunting the hunters - Evaluating a new method of Geographic Profiling

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Författare :Max Pröckl; [2024]
    Nyckelord :rgeoprofile; crimestat; journey-to-crime; geographic profiling; qgis; geographical profiling; Örebromannen; Kim Rossmo; David Canter; Ned Levine.; Law and Political Science;

    Sammanfattning : Geographic Profiling (GP) may be used when searching for an unknown offender by applying mathematical algorithms to geographical information. This thesis aimed to contribute to improvement of the efficiacy of GP’s produced by law enforcement by evaluating a the new Spaulding/Morris Centrographic (SMC)-method of GP that claims to counteract two of the main difficulties when constructing a GP in a real world investigation: 1.

  2. 2. Multicriteria Evaluation in Real Estate Land-use Suitability Analysis: The case of Volos, Greece

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Panagiotis Dimitrios Tsachageas; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Real Estate; Multicriteria Evaluation; Fuzzy; AHP; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) into real estate analysis has long been considered an interesting interdisciplinary pursuit, but has yet to become mainstream. Despite the increasing academic focus over the last twenty years, this endeavour has mostly been approached from the scientific side of Geography. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Exploring patterns in risk factors for bark beetle attack during outbreaks triggered by drought stress with harvester data on attacked trees: A case study in Southeastern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Nikolaos Kouskoulis; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Forest ecosystems; Bark beetle outbreak; Southeastern Sweden; Predisposing factors; Triggering factors; Drought stress; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Raising temperatures and climate variability have intensified extreme weather events worldwide. These extremes can enhance and trigger possible pest outbreaks. Bark beetle attacks have become a major concern in regions with extensive spruce forest areas. Southeastern Sweden has faced repeated outbreaks resulting in widespread tree loss. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Henrik Hagelin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Physical geography; Prometheus; WiSE-FASS; The 2014 Västmanland wildfire; Wildfire growth modelling; Wildfire suppression support; Wildfire behaviour; MESAN; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Automatic text placement on maps using deep learning keypoint detection models

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Azin Khosravi Khorashad; [2022]
    Nyckelord :machine learning; Stacked hourglass networks; attention mechanism; CNN; geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Labeling the map is one of the most essential parts of the cartographic process that requires a huge time and energy. It is proven that the automation of map labeling is an NP-hard problem. There have been many research studies that tried to solve it such as rule-based methods, metaheuristics, and integer programming. LÄS MER
