Mapping the potential acidic deposition in southwestern California using ambient air concentrations of acid precursors

Creator:: Doherty, David D.
Abstract:: Attempts to map the distribution of acidic deposition have been inadequate, particularly in areas of seasonal or limited rainfall. Ambient air concentrations of acid precursors may be used to monitor and map the distribution of potential acidic deposition. A network of stations in California currently monitor these ambient air concentrations....

Geographic information systems : some considerations for use in geographic research and analysis

Creator:: Herstrom, Andrew A.
Abstract:: The major considerations for acquiring and using a geographic information system (G..I.S.) for regional or national geographical research and analysis are examined in this paper. After defining what a G.I.S. is, some of the more practical and useful functions of a G.I.S. in day-to--day geographical work are outlined. Finally, the...

An inventory of Oregon county land use maps with recommendations for future standardization

Creator:: Batch, Donna Jeanne
Abstract:: An inventory of existing land use maps developed by Oregon county planning departments has been made through use of questionnaires and interviews. The degree of consistency has been examined with regard to the types of base maps, scales, projections, base information, and classification schemes employed. Recommendations have been made for...

Deconstructing density : Assessing the per capita influence on vegetation and impervious surface area in Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Rempel, Marco Gascho
Abstract:: The density at which urban areas are developed has become a contentious issue, with advocates for compact cities in conflict with advocates for larger lots and suburban development. This research paper examines the associated impact of population density (grouped by residential zones) as measured by vegetation (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)...

Interactive choropleth mapping using high resolution color graphics

Creator:: Spielman, Julie B.
Abstract:: A program, Color Choropleth Mapping System (CCMS), has been developed to provide high quality color choropleth maps at the Geography Department at Oregon State University. The program operates interactively and is menu-driven. When developing the software for mapping programs, programmers need to be aware of cartographic theory, as well as...

The use of GIS in the analysis and prediction of available salmon habitat in an Oregon coastal stream

Creator:: Newton, Ann M.
Abstract:: Because of declines in salmon populations in recent years, the health of salmon habitat, in particular, is the focus of many resource agencies. The objective of this study is to use GIS to predict the location of suitable habitat. With data from an extensive set of stream surveys, GIS was...

An application of photogrammetric techniques to the measurement of historic photographs

Creator:: Strausz, David A. Jr
Abstract:: The application of the collinearity solution by resection of the interior and exterior orientation parameters of historical photographs is investigated. The spatial coordinates of seven or more identifiable control points in the field of view of an historical photograph, combined with image coordinates of the control point images, allow solution...

Determination of geographic information system database characteristics : an application of the information integration theory

Creator:: Brooks, Kris
Abstract:: The development of a geographic information system (GIS) requires the development of large databases of spatially related information. Scale, resolution and the classification of thematic data can vary considerably in terms of the level of detail at which the data are compiled and converted to machine readable form. The level...

Geometric laws for moire patterns produced by cartographic tint screens

Creator:: Greenfield, Leslie Susan
Abstract:: Moire patterns have been identified by printers as undesirable screen patterns caused by incorrect angling of overprinted halftones. These patterns are being examined by cartographers as a possible alternative to traditional methods of producing patterned areas on maps. Map design guidelines are needed before the use of moires can become...

The influence of map complexity on interpolation accuracy.pdf

Creator:: Young, Brian K.
Abstract:: In this paper "map complexity" refers to the inherent intricacy of a mapped geographic pattern. Map complexity and sample size are two variables shown to influence the accuracy of interpolated dasymetric maps. An automated experiment was designed to investigate the precise relationship among map complexity, sample size, and the accuracy...
