In recent years, the increase in the number of hurricanes and other costal hazards in the US pose a tremendous threat to the residents of coastal states. According to the National Hurricane Center, Florida is the most vulnerable coastal... more
The purpose of this paper is to expand empirical research on bus transit operation costs and test the hypothesis that physical and geographical characteristics are plausible explanatory cost factors. A translog cost function has been... more
This article pursues the idea that within interdisciplinary teams in which researchers might find themselves participating, there are very different notions of research outcomes, as well as languages in which they are expressed. We... more
This research provides an experimental project for the urban image of Napoli, in order to enhance its knowledge. Artists, who have painted it over time, have shaped a visual memory of its changes that is reinterpreted through a... more
The purpose of text geolocation is to associate geographic information contained in a document with a set (or sets) of coordinates , either implicitly by using linguistic features and/or explicitly by using geographic metadata combined... more
This study examined the sources of error involved in geocoding, by systematically evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of three widely used tools for geocoding. We tested them against a random sample of addresses from a state... more
The combination of GPS services and information technology is increasing with the use of geotagging now occurring as a default action in many commodity based devices functionality for example mobile phones and cameras. The camera in... more
The ability to obtain accurate predictions of bus arrival time on a real-time basis is a vital element to both bus operations control and passenger information systems. Several studies had been devoted to this arrival time prediction... more
In spatial epidemiologic and public health research it is common to use spatially aggregated units such as centroids of postal/zip codes, census tracts, dissemination areas, blocks or block groups as proxies for sample unit locations. Few... more
A first evaluation of ALOS PALSAR data for forest stem volume estimation has been performed at a coniferous dominated test site in Sweden. In total, 7 Fine Beam Single polarization (FBS, look angle 34.3deg, HH-polarization) and 7... more
A risk-based model is presented for identifying highway-rail grade crossing blackspots. This model consists of two prediction components: collision frequency and collision consequence. A graphic approach is adopted to identify crossings... more

Historical itineraries, often accessible as lists or tables describing places visited in sequence, are abundant resources and also important objects of study for humanities scholars. This article advances a novel method for automatically... more
One of the most important features in many applications, especially in geographic information systems (GIS), is the capability tolocate addresses, i.e. to geocode the address. During the last year there has been also a significant... more
Libraries and researchers face a big challenge: sometimes thousands, millions of maps are being conserved in archives to retard deterioration, but this makes it hard to obtain specific knowledge of their content, sometimes even of their... more
While established ethical norms and core legal principles concerning the protection of privacy may be easily identified, applying these standards to rapidly evolving digital information technologies, markets for digital information and... more
The constantly growing number of websites, web pages, documents and, textual (Big) Data populating the Internet currently represents a massive resource of information and knowledge for various interests and across many different domains.... more
Big, fine-grained enterprise registration data that includes time and location information enables us to quantitatively analyze, visualize, and understand the patterns of industries at multiple scales across time and space. However, data... more
The increasing use of geographic information systems (GIS) in epidemiological population studies requires careful attention to the methods employed in accomplishing geocoding and creating a GIS. Studies have provided limited details,... more
