  1. 1. Environmental Trail Suitability in the Proposed Bästeträsk National Park, Gotland : A Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Using GIS

    Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

    Författare :Jan Palyza; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Bästeträsk; Gotland; Nature-Based Tourism; National Park; Spatial Tourism Planning; Sustainable Destination Development; Environmental Trail Suitability; Volunteered Geographic Data; Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : This master’s thesis determines trail suitability in the context of environmental area sensitivity, closely focusing on a proposed Bästeträsk National Park, Gotland, Sweden. The current relative low usage of the area is expected to significantly increase its tourism flow once the proposed national park is established, as the demand for nature-based tourism and recreation is growing.

  2. 2. Developing Data Extraction and Dynamic Data Visualization (Styling) Modules for Web GIS Risk Assessment System (WGRAS)

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

    Författare :Daniel Assefa; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Disaster Risk Management; web GIS; Volunteered Geographic Information VGI ; Map Visualization and styling; Geo-spatial data extraction; OpenStreetMap OSM ; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Interactive web-GIS tools play an important role in determining disaster risk assessment which ultimately result in reduction of unexpected damages, cost and saves millions of lives. Disaster management practitioners largely benefited information at their disposal about location where possible incidents are eminent, anticipate the impact and project possible outcomes to help mitigate and organize proper response.

  3. 3. Communicating With Points, Lines, and Areas.

    Master-uppsats, IT-universitetet i Göteborg/Tillämpad informationsteknologi

    Författare :Daiva Marija Brazauskaite; [2015-10-07]
    Nyckelord :disaster response; Volunteered Geographic Information; OSM Tasking Manager; Media Synchronicity Theory; Nepal Earthquake 2015; Map Communication Model;

    Sammanfattning : Disaster response requires great amount of communication when it comes to coordination and cooperation, yet communication is not smooth and encounters some problems, one of which is lack of situation awareness. One of the most required information during disaster response which helps to solve the situation awareness problem is geospatial data. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Development of an automated matching algorithm to assess the quality of the OpenStreetMap road network : a case study in Göteborg, Sweden

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

    Författare :Julian Will; [2014]
    Nyckelord :OpenStreetMap; automated matching; quality assessment; volunteered geographic data; linear features; Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : In the last decade a new and alternative source of geospatial data has become available, so called Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI). Private individuals voluntarily collect large amount of geographic data for a joint project. This data are usually free under certain licence restrictions. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Exploring Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Volunteered Geographic Information : A Case Study on Flickr Data of Sweden

    Kandidat-uppsats, Avdelningen för Industriell utveckling, IT och Samhällsbyggnad

    Författare :Yufan Miao; [2013]
    Nyckelord :Big Data; VGI; Flickr; Delaunay Triangulation; Power Law; Scaling Analysis; Spatio-Temporal Pattern;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to seek interesting patterns from massive amounts of Flickr data in Sweden with pro- posed new clustering strategies. The aim can be further divided into three objectives. The first one is to acquire large amount of timestamped geolocation data from Flickr servers. LÄS MER
