Proceedings Of The Workshop On Spatio-Temporal Data Models Of Biogeophysical Fields For Ecological Forecasting, Geoffrey Henebry, Jan Chomicki, Tony Fountain

Geoffrey Henebry

This workshop was held on April 8th - 10th at the San Diego Supercomputer Center in La Jolla, California. It was sponsored by the National Science Foundation.

Workshop Overview
We are now in an era of intensive earth observation: orbital platforms generate myriad
remote sensing datastreams across a range of spatial, temporal, spectral, and radiometric
resolutions. The number and variety of "eyes in the skies" are scheduled to increase
significantly over the next few years. Tiris veritable data deluge necessitates new ways of
thinking about transforming remote sensing data into information about ecological patterns and
processes. These datastreams hold the …

Viewshed Analysis Of The Ilave River Valley (M.A. Data Paper, Uc Santa Barbara Anthropology), Nicholas Tripcevich Dec 2001

Viewshed Analysis Of The Ilave River Valley (M.A. Data Paper, Uc Santa Barbara Anthropology), Nicholas Tripcevich

Nicholas Tripcevich, Ph.D.

This paper explores the potential for using viewshed analysis methods with settlement survey data in a grassland environment. Innovations in geographical positioning and spatial analysis technology permits archaeological surveyors to rapidly gather greater quantities and better quality spatial data than was formerly possible. A variety of statistical analyses and agent-based models are made possible with the more exhaustive and statistically robust data. Site location criteria are considered with respect to both the visibility from high viewshed locations, and the sheltering potential from wind, weather, and other humans and animals, afforded by low viewshed locations.

The point locations of several hundred …
