The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and precision of a consumer-grade GPS (Colorado 300) receiver in road mapping. For this purpose, a length of 12.2 km of main forest road was selected in the Hyrcanian forest, northern Iran, and a ground truth map was extracted from the National Cartographic Center maps. The forest road was mapped in four seasons for three days to evaluate the seasons’ effects on the location accuracy and five- and ten-meter buffers were used for the same purpose. The results of two-way ANOVA showed that there were significant differences in the precision and accuracy of the GPS receiver due to the season. The best and worst mean accuracy and precision were in spring (24.45 m and 24.97 m) and autumn (56.10 m and 53.65 m), respectively. The findings showed a positive effect of averaging (5-61% improvement in relation to season) on the position accuracy. Also, ANOVA did not show any significant differences between the overlay lengths due to season in both the five-and ten-meter buffers. It can be concluded that consumer-grade GPS receivers could meet forestry needs. The averaged accuracies in spring are acceptable for many forestry applications and satisfy the mapping requirements.","PeriodicalId":38505,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the Transilvania University of Brasov, Series II: Forestry, Wood Industry, Agricultural Food Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83034613","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 retrieved data were then analyzed based on the total research outputs, countries and affiliation of authors, sources of funding, keywords used by the authors, citations and collaborations using both add-on analytical tool, Microsoft Excel and VOS viewer for data visualization. A total of 447 research outputs by 710 authors affiliated with 1173 institutions from 74 countries using 1051 keywords were obtained.

A. from the Division of Microbiology; National Centre for Toxicological Research, United States, was the most productive author with 10 (2.2%) publications while the National Natural Science Foundation of China was the highest funding institution with 22 (4.9%) and the United States of America was the most productive with 91 (20.4%) research outputs followed by China with 70 (15.7%) research outputs. Over the last two decades (1999 – 2019), there has been an exponential (r2=0.91) increase in seafood and antibiotics related research activities. The majority of these research activities were from America, Asia and Europe.
