In this article, we evaluate the impact of positional and temporal inaccuracies on mapping detection potential outbreaks dengue fever in Cali, an urban environment Colombia. Positional uncertainties input data are determined by comparison between coordinates following automated geocoding process those extracted from on-field GPS measurements. Temporal modeled around incubation period for fever. To test robustness disease intensities space time when accounting space-time error, each case is...
Children with birth defects may face significant geographic barriers accessing medical care and specialized services. Using a Geographic Information Systems-based approach, one-way travel time distance to access for children born spina bifida was estimated.
Online mapping providers offer unprecedented access to spatial data and analytical tools; however, the number of queries that can be requested is usually limited. As such, Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) services a viable alternative, provided quality underlying spatialtheir adequate. In this paper, we evaluate agreement in travel impedance between estimates from MapQuest Open, which embraces OpenStreetMap (OSM) data–a based on VGI datasetfrom (OSM), two other popular commercial...
To build educational capacity for the rapidly evolving science and profession of geocomputation, American Association Geographers piloted an Encoding Geography research-practice partnership (RPP) composed geography computer educators researchers. This commentary describes process, known as Collective Impact, that was implemented to investigate persistent problems practice have limited participation women minorities in geocomputational education careers. We also discuss RPP's data-driven...
The 1st International Workshop on Geo-computational Thinking in Education (GeoEd 2019) was held conjunction with the 27th ACM SIGSPATIAL Conference Advances Geographic Information Systems (ACM 2019). workshop is intended to bring together experts from both geography (or related) and computer science disciplines who have primary interest geospatial data technologies, either academia or industry, discuss grand challenges towards improving existing learning pathways through integration of...
The growth of the geospatial services industry is increasing demand for a workforce with training at intersection geography and computing (i.e., geocomputation) in terms skills, knowledge, disciplinary background. To be more effective supply geocomputational professionals, we need to better understand existing educational pathways that are available acquire knowledge skills geography, computing, or both. In this article, aimed enhance our understanding current standing career by (1)...
To prepare our next generation to face geospatial problems that have extreme time constraints (e.g., disasters, climate change) we need create educational pathways help students develop their geocomputational thinking skills. First, educators are central in helping us those pathways, therefore, clearly convey them why and which contexts this is necessary. For purpose, a new definition for suggested makes it clear needed constraints. Secondly, can not further burden with more demands, rather...
The growth of the geospatial services industry is increasing demand for graduates with training in both geography and computational thinking (geocomputational thinking). limited availability learning pathways towards geocomputationally intensive jobs requires employers across public private sectors to choose between hiring a geographer or computer science graduate. This collaboration authors will initiate formation researcher-practitioner partnership (RPP) Southern California, as new...
