Accuracy of community-based spatial data collection in a GIS

Creator:

Wood, Matthew N.

Abstract:

Training high school students to conduct field mapping and data collection of wildlife habitat on public lands produces important data for local government geographic information systems and introduces students to the field of geography. However, the positional accuracy of the spatial data is important for use in a GIS, as...

Color specification and cartography: a comparison of the Munsell Color System and the HLS system

Creator:

Yeaple, Anne

Abstract:

Progress in the development of color CRT's and color graphic hard-copy devices offers a new tool for the thematic mapper. From a cartographic perspective, the technology for displaying and producing color maps has advanced without concern for cartographic principles and conventions in the employment of color. Since it is necessary...

Expert systems in computer cartography

Creator:

Ulshoefer, Veit Stefan

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to describe the application of expert system concepts to cartographic problems. Expert systems, a subfield of artificial intelligence, are computer programs based on knowledge and symbolic reasoning. The basic principles of expert systems will be explained. Areas of cartography that are most suitable for...

Digital slope-aspect display using nearly continuous hue classes

Creator:

Weston, Frederick N.

Abstract:

Slope-aspect is the compass direction of a slope at a particular location on a given surface, and can provide a graphic tool for people who require an understanding of the pattern of slope-aspect variation across a landscape. Slope-aspect maps can be helpful for terrain analysis, watershed management, building site analysis,...

Geographic Information System model rating old-growth stand significance on the Olympic National Forest

Creator:

Wettengel, William M.

Abstract:

With increased attention being focused on the remaining old-growth forest resource in the Pacific Northwest a way to ecologically rate forest stands is needed to assist the U.S. Forest Service in its management decisions. A Geographic Information System (GIS) model was developed to rate old-growth stands in a 49,500 acre...

Production of an animated cartography sample for teaching and instruction, with musings on the nature and usefulness of animated maps

Creator:

Whaley, Kristine A.

Abstract:

Animated cartography is still a new field. It has been experimented with for years, but it has not gained general usage except partially in use by the news media. Nevertheless, certain subjects cry out for displaying the patterns of movement over time, such as historical patterns of migration and settlement,...

Multivariate thematic map visualization of the Oregon 2001 drought

Creator:

Theirl, David M.

Abstract:

The visualization of climate patterns is a major theme in cartography. Short-term dramatic weather events such as hurricanes and tornado outbreaks are mapped and displayed immediately in order to capitalize on the sensational nature of the events, and to quickly and accurately convey the information to emergency workers and the...

The affect of pattern on gray tone area symbols: a psychophysical experiment

Creator:

Selle, Anthony R.

Abstract:

Equal value gray scales are frequently employed by cartographers to choose gray tone area symbols. Several researchers have tried to quantify perceived gray tone as a function of percent area inked or reflectance but results have varied. The influence of pattern and texture on gray tone perception is considered a...

Capstone Project
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...
