Yongwan Chun The University of Texas at Dallas “Uncertainty in Spatial Analysis: Visualization, Measurement, and Modeling” Join us this Thursday December 3 from 4:00-5:00 PM with Guest speaker Yongwan Chun of The University of Texas at Dallas Uncertainty in spatial analysis has been recognized in the literature. Research has addressed various aspects of uncertainty including different sources of error, visualization of uncertainty, and error propagations. While positional error is inevitably raised in data representations, e.g., in GIS, attribute error also has an impact on spatial analysis. The release of margins of error (MOEs) in American Community Survey (ACS) draws an attention to attribute errors in spatial analysis. Focusing on attribute error, this presentation discusses uncertainty-related research areas in spatial analysis and shows recent progresses specifically, visualization, measurement, and modeling of uncertainty. Free and Open to the Public https://pdx.zoom.us/j/88315119662 Or live via YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGb2PSW9_yYcRVJxxBMCA7Q/live Are you interested in learning about the cultural significance of trees in French Polynesian archeological sites? What about the shifting patterns of global terrorism? Or perhaps simply discovering possible next steps in your conservation GIS career?
For all of this and more, we invite you to attend the Geospatial Research Symposium on Zoom this Friday, April 3rd, from 12:30 - 3:30 PM (Eastern Standard Time).

Tuesday, May 28 12:30pm to 1:30pm PSU Cramer Hall - Room 409 Their goal for this project is to inspire others to bike more often. Their data begins focused on Portland, OR as that is where they work and cycle. They've seen the city grow over the past few years and would like to offer safer routing options that learn with the cyclist and are always ready to improve. They may also need cycling volunteers willing to ground truth some cycling routes! Come find out more about their project and the great work they are doing. Here is a link to their Blog with more information on the project: https://dymaptic.com/navigation,/cycling/2019/03/12/ai-cycling-navigation.html |
