Through a comparative analysis of the spectral characteristics on typical surface features (clean water, muddy water, vegetation and cyanobacteria) and different concentration of cyanobacteria bloom covering over the water surface of Dianchi Lake, we can get the response sensitive bands information of cyanobacteria bloom. We can also extract the spatial distribution and divide the concentration classification threshold of cyanobacteria bloom in Dianchi Lake by using false color synthesis (MODIS:6-2-1) method, single-band method, ratio vegetation index (RVI) method, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) method, enhanced vegetation index (EVI) method. At the same time, we can analyse the dynamic process about cyanobacteria bloom through multitemporal remote sensing images and difference operation.","PeriodicalId":259976,"journal":{"name":"2012 20th International Conference on Geoinformatics","volume":"465 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115629409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A fire presents some of the characteristics of a disaster because of the highly destructive action of fire and of the considerable number of victims. Fire rescue is very essential in fire disaster emergency response. Disaster planning and response require ever more scientific elaboration and technological support. The paper establishes applications of fire disaster simulation and virtual fire training by using our Collaborative Virtual Geographic Environment (CVGE) platform-CySim, which is developed based on open source OpenSimulator server and Second Life client. The approach links fire simulation and human behaviour rehearsal to virtual environment, thus provides a flexibility interaction platform and distributed and collaborative learning network for disaster knowledge learning and virtual training. Users (trainers) can play it again and again, until they get it right. It therefore can be a replacement of live simulation training of fire disaster.","PeriodicalId":259976,"journal":{"name":"2012 20th International Conference on Geoinformatics","volume":"383 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131980928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data sharing is affected by diverse and complex factors, which have been studied largely by the approach of observing organizational development. Quantitative messages and qualitative descriptions have been obtained through gathering of organizational messages from short-term surveys with massive questionnaires or through relatively in-depth case studies. But the stability of research results has been affected by the questionnaire contents, the appropriateness of responding subjects chosen, how thorough the understanding of organizational operation was and the timing of investigation, as well as the judgment of the correctness of the information gathered. Given little research having investigated the messages about the subjects by long-term observation, this article takes the approach of direct, in-depth involvement and long-term observation on the organizational process of spatial data sharing to gather the first-hand and consistent data of Taichung City Government's n development on spatial data over the span of 17 years. Preliminary analysis of the factors affecting spatial data sharing is made by empirical research. Also, the complexity of spatial data sharing is explained from the multiple, interactive dimensions of Balanced Scorecard. The present research presents to verify, based on empirical data, that the dimension of influence of regulation enforcement is a direct and crucial factor, with part of the findings echoing to other previous research. The present research is hoped to understand, based on the materials of unprecedented, long-term empirical research, the real causes of the influences on spatial data sharing and to explain it.","PeriodicalId":259976,"journal":{"name":"2012 20th International Conference on Geoinformatics","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130891956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When property right volumes as true 3D objects are constructed, not only ideal situations that closed patches are discrete planes, but also general conditions that property right boundaries are surfaces should be taken into account. So, firstly, conceptual descriptions of boundary surfaces and mathematical expressions of both the shared curve and the cutting plane are proposed based on theory of point-set topology. Secondly, obeying the principle of topological consistency, an automatic sorting approach and corresponding restrictions are put forward by detailed processes about local interpolation of the surface, calculation of the feature polyline, sorting of the cutting plane bundle. Particularly, this paper emphasizes on the method to obtain the feature polyline of the cutting plane taking triangulation interpolation of the surface in Google SketchUp for example. It is hoped that what is discussed in this paper could provide some references for constructing the smallest solid closed by discrete surface patches applied in urban space utilization cases such as 3D cadastre.","PeriodicalId":259976,"journal":{"name":"2012 20th International Conference on Geoinformatics","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121026868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed mixing prior takes advantage of different properties of HSI in the spatial and spectral domain. Furthermore, we proposed a spatially adaptive weighted prior combining smoothing prior and discontinuity-preserving prior in the spectral domain. The weights can be defined as a function of the spectral discontinuity measure (DM). For minimizing the objective function, a half-quadratic optimization algorithm is used. The experimental results illustrate that our proposed model can get a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) than using only smoothing prior or discontinuity-preserving prior.","PeriodicalId":259976,"journal":{"name":"2012 20th International Conference on Geoinformatics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131207753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper improves the method of extracting vegetation information by selecting the best bands group in West Liao River Basin. The medium-resolution of Landsat TM image with the solution of 30 meter obtained in 2010 were selected as the data source. During the extraction process, Principal Component Analysis is used to separate key information from background noise, which reduces the data redundancy. With the consideration of vegetation chlorophyll information, containing more information, the second principal component was selected to analyzing the bands correlation coefficient. Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) was chosen as one component. By calculating the correlation coefficient of band1 to band5, band7, the second principal components and NDVI, we found band1, PC2 and NDVI have the least correlation. Maximum Likelihood method of supervised classification is used to classify the surface features on basis of band1, PC2, NDVI and band5, band4, band3 combination image, respectively. The result shows that the overall accuracy of classification based on the new bands combination increased by 6.45% than based on original band. The main reasons are that the new band combination can eliminate texture interference and has the little correlation coefficient.","PeriodicalId":259976,"journal":{"name":"2012 20th International Conference on Geoinformatics","volume":"111 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127746355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
