Many studies have looked at human settlements around individual volcanoes for volcanic risk analyses, but few have done a comparative study to identify possible global patterns. With the use of Landsat ETM+ data, this study identifies and compares urban proximity to the Decade Volcanoes to identify volcanic settlement patterns. These...

Using Data Loss and Duplication Maps to study data use associated with nearest-neighbor resampling

Creator:

Perigny, Mathew

Abstract:

Nearest-neighbor resampling is a common procedure used by cartographers to reproject raster data sets. This type of resampling is useful because it retains the data from the original raster data set. However, during nearest-neighbor resampling some of the original data will be lost as it is reprojected, while other data...
