These analyzes are based on thematic cartography, usually generated with visual classifications of satellite images. Traditional mapping techniques involve limiting the timely availability of information by taking extended periods for interpretation and integration of multiple data sets. This article presents a methodology to overcome these difficulties, implements machine learning and cloud computing to generate timely thematic cartography and spatial analysis to support land use planning. The study area was delimited according to altitudinal levels that define braided and anastomosed river systems. Acquisition, processing, and classification of input data for modeling were performed on the Google Earth Engine platform. The spatial correlation between hemeroby and geomorphology was calculated with the odds ratio and its respective confidence interval. Maps of 27 geomorphological units, 11 types of land use, and six hemeroby levels are presented at a scale of 1:50,000. Confusion matrices of implemented classification models were also reported, allowed evaluating global, user’s, and producer’s accuracy. Correlations between relict of natural areas with the structural environment and urban infrastructure with alluvial fans stand out. The information generated by these procedures is essential for planning land use and prioritizing the maintenance of ecosystem services.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"1 1","pages":"295 - 314"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82027211","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}

These land surface indexes have a different response to LST variation in the city. The results show that the LST–NDVI correlation (r = –0.40 in summer, −0.36 in winter) and LST–MNDWI correlation (r = –0.31 in summer, −0.51 in winter) are moderately negative. In contrast, the LST–NDBaI correlation (r = 0.38 in summer, 0.49 in winter) and LST–NDBI correlation (r = 0.56 in summer, 0.69 in winter) are moderately positive. The correlation is less variable in winter. A gradually increasing trend is observed in the winter correlation, whereas the summer image does not have the same type of relationship trend.

Those data sets, however, are stored in numeric-text formats. Therefore, it is very difficult for the public and even health professionals to understand the spatial and temporal patterns of mortality across the state. In this article, the authors present the development of an interactive and animated cartographic approach to visualizing the spatiotemporal patterns of the death rates of heart disease in Illinois from 2008 to 2020. The interactive map was developed using the combination of ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS API for JavaScript. The map animation was created in Microsoft PowerPoint, was saved in MP4 video, and was uploaded to YouTube for public viewing. Both the interactive online map and map animation provide excellent tools for the visualization of spatiotemporal patterns of heart disease death rates in Illinois from 2008 to 2020. In addition, three sparkline graphs were generated in Microsoft Excel to reveal the temporal trend of the death rates: one for the state total, one for sex, and one for race ethnicity. It is expected that this approach can be used to visualize the spatiotemporal patterns of other public health information.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"35 1","pages":"125 - 135"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82066706","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 locational and descriptive data available to researchers from online IMB review sites allows for analysis of locational strategies of IMBs that are simply not possible with any other form of illegal commercial activity. And yet, spatial analyses of the industry to date all treat IMB firms as homogeneous features, rather than distinct firms that make locational choices to differentiate themselves from their competitors and/or make themselves more attractive to potential customers. The assumption of homogeneity produced conflicting and inconclusive results in previous IMB locational studies. This research begins the process of addressing this problem by drawing on extensive field surveying of IMB storefronts in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metro area to present the first geospatial typology of illicit massage businesses in North America. The typology represents a step toward a more nuanced understanding of the illicit massage industry, which can be used to improve locational analyses moving forward.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"7 1","pages":"149 - 170"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85192857","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}

Although there is evidence of the importance of KIBS clustering as a factor that precedes innovation, no empirical work has applied point pattern analysis methods to identify intrametropolitan patterns. Little is known about KIBS firms clustering in Mexico and emerging economies in general. This study responds to both challenges, using the M and m functions, point pattern analysis methods that allow capturing concentration intensity and overdensity of same-type KIBS firms, respectively. Firm-level data are taken from Mexico’s National Statistics and Geography Institute’s (INEGI) open-source databases for 2010 and 2020. Results suggest different clustering patterns given our proposed KIBS classification. Overall, the clustering intensity of KIBS firms by class has increased during the analyzed period (2010–2020). Also, although central Greater Mexico City is the main clustering pole of attraction, urban subcenters display KIBS firms clustering depending on proposed KIBS classes. Clustering patterns are explained given existing intrametropolitan infrastructure and value-added differences, but also within- and between-class concentration variations. Despite the lack of firm-level economic data, results allow inferring possible agglomeration mechanisms behind clustering patterns.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"26 1","pages":"193 - 213"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75467857","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}

Farmers’ cognition was considered for identifying crops that were suitable for cultivation in the changing environment. Results indicated that the average annual temperature and precipitation in this region had increased notably since 1980. Similarly, surface soil salinity had also recorded an overall increase throughout the island during the last three decades. In such a scenario, local farmers were only able to profitably cultivate few salinity-tolerant varieties of paddy (e.g., Masoori, Kalma, Santoshi, and Pratiksha) and vegetables (e.g., sunflower, potato, onion, okra, and betel leaf). Brackish water aquaculture had also become popular here in spite of its socio-ecological detriments. Many farmers were found to use their traditional knowledge proficiently alongside modern methods. However, the pressure of local peers, lack of readily investable wealth, and appropriate technological expertise often weakened their adaptive capacity. The findings suggested that effective cropping strategies such as coupled mangrove-shrimp farming and cultivation of salinity as well as waterlogging tolerant crop varieties could be considered as viable strategies toward enhancing resilience.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"21 1","pages":"171 - 192"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86943577","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 tectonic activity analysis was conducted on the thirty-eight basins through two methods: (1) shape-based, which estimates topography (stream gradient, hypsometry integral, and valley floor), form (asymmetry factor and basin shape), and sinuosity indices (fractal dimension of drainage patterns and mountain front), and (2) terrain-based, which extracts terrain (stream power index, valley depth, flow width, and relief ratio), and surface fractal dimension complexity indices. The results obtained were combined to produce two Relative Active Tectonic Maps (RATMshape and RATMterrain). This study demonstrated that active tectonics matched well with the extracted geomorphic indices and allowed to define the relative tectonic activity in Lebanon: about 65% of the basins correspond to class 1 low; 28% to class 2 moderate; 5% to class 3 high; and 2% to class 4 very high. The east part of the Yammouneh fault and the entire Serghaya fault are moderate to highly active based on the relative tectonic activity analysis. The more active tectonic areas are concentrated in the north ends of Lebanon, while moderate tectonics are focused on the south ends. The entire Rachaya and Roum faults are low to moderately active. The northern part of the Lebanon mountain range, which sits west of the Yammouneh fault, has exceptionally high relative tectonic activity.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"196 1","pages":"214 - 229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86724353","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}

These studies overlook the fastest growing retail segment in the United States, dollar stores. Although dollar stores might not be known for their food items, their ubiquitous nature in our retail environment forces many to use dollar stores as their primary and often closest food source. This study evaluated dollar store access in the St. Louis Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) based on count analysis and travel time along with demographic variables such as income and education. Results reveal that a majority of tracts in the St. Louis MSA do not have a dollar store, yet over half the residents of the MSA live within a five-minute drive of a dollar store. Rural residents live the farthest from a dollar store, with one population-weighted tract centroid traveling over twenty minutes to a dollar store. Demographic results reveal that dollar stores tend to locate in places with lower incomes, lower levels of education, and more diverse residents. The growth of dollar stores across the United States allows for residents to have easier access to goods, but concern exists regarding the healthiness of the food products served in these stores. Future research will include health data to determine if these stores could be contributing to the obesity and diabetes epidemics in the United States.","PeriodicalId":36897,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Applied Geography","volume":"49 1","pages":"483 - 492"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86641103","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}
