Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAutomatic Text Removal and Replacement in Scanned Meteorological Thematic MapsAhsan Abdullah, Sohyb Sami Abo Alshamat, Ahmad Bakhashwain, Ahtisham AslamGeo-referenced data is required in many Geographic Information System (GIS) applications and one source of such data being maps. Meteorological maps are color-coded with different regions corresponding to different values of a parameter, parsing the image to convert into data is not very difficult. However, text and different planimetric elements overlaid on the regions in the map makes accurate image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 18 Aug 2015 · 7,045 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBibliometric Analysis of Missing Value Imputation (MVI) Research Using Python and VOSviewer: Trends and Future DirectionsSamsul Arifin, Muhammad Faisal, Edwin Kristianto Sijabat et al.Incomplete data is a pervasive issue in data science, posing significant challenges for statistical analysis and machine learning applications. Missing Value Imputation (MVI) has thus emerged as a critical area of research aimed at mitigating data quality issues and improving decision-making accuracy. This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of MVI research using Scopus-indexed publications from 2000 to 2024. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 20 Jan 2026 · 1,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Zones of Peruvanthanam and Valiyathodu Sub-Watersheds of Manimala River BasinVadakkepurakkal Rekha, Aikara Varkey George, Rita MendezGroundwater is a dynamic and replenishable natural resource. But in hard rock terrains, its availability is of limited extent. In sub-watershed studies, remote sensing and GIS techniques have the advantages of spatial, spectral and temporal data, covering large and inaccessible areas within a short span of time. Thus this technique has become a very handy tool in assessing and monitoring … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2013 · 7,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandslide Susceptibility Assessment using Frequency Ratio Model Applied to an Area along the E-W Highway (Gerik-Jeli)Tareq H. Mezughi, Juhari Mat Akhir, Abdul Ghani Rafek, Ibrahim AbdullahProblem statement: The study area is frequently subjected to landslides especially alongside the E-W high way. This study demonstrates the implementation of the Frequency Ratio (FR) model with the aid of GIS tool to assess the contribution of every predisposing factor on landslides and produce a landslide susceptibility map to the area. Approach: A landslide location map of the study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 9,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of an Educational Scenario Exercise on Participants' Competencies of Systemic ThinkingSimon BurandtProblem statement: Education for sustainable development (ESD) aims to shape key competencies of individuals and therefore needs methods to enable learners to acquire these competencies. Systemic thinking can be regarded as a meta-competency in ESD, because it contains many important aspects found in most key competencies of ESD. Scenario analysis is described as a learning environment that fosters the acquisition … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2010 · 8,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Method for Accuracy Assessment of Sub-Pixel Classification ResultsH. Emami, B. MojaradiProblem statement: Classification accuracy assessment is the main stage of information extraction to evaluate the performance of a classifier. According to the output's classifiers (thematic map/fraction map), a properly strategy for accuracy assessment should be taken into consideration. Since pure pixels are used in traditional accuracy assessment of full pixel classifiers they are not suitable for assessment of sub-pixel classifiers. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Satellite Data to Study the Impact of Land-Cover/Land-Use Change in Madison County AlabamaTomas Ayala-Silva, Garry Gordon, Robert HeathThe monitoring of land/use land cover changes along the northern part of Madison County Alabama are essential for the developers, planners, policy makers and management of government, public and private organizations. Remote sensing was used to analyze and study land-use/land-cover use changes impact on the environment of Madison County Alabama. This study area was selected because it is one of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Geo-Information Technology in the Study of Soil and Nutrients Loss by Water Erosion for three Different Land CoverMushtak T. Jabbar, C. A.I. Chong-Fa, Wang Tian-Wei, Shi Zhi-HuaThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the soil statistical analysis with RS and GIS techniques to quantify soil and nutrient loss risk. The Letianxi watershed, located in the southwest part of Hubei Province of China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,790 accessesView PDFCite
