Population data are typically aggregated at census enumeration units, which can have arbitrary, temporally-evolving boundaries. Previous approaches to imperviousness-based dasymetric mapping ignore cell-level patterning of imperviousness within a spatial unit of prediction, which potentially serve as a strong indicator of population. Landscape metrics derived from imperviousness data offer a promising approach to capture these patterns. In this study, we incorporate landscape metrics derived from impervious cover percentage maps into intelligent dasymetric mapping to downscale population from census tracts to block groups in four states with varying population densities: Connecticut, South Carolina, West Virginia, and New Mexico. We compare the performance of the landscape metrics-based models against two baseline models in all four states across three different time periods. The results show that intelligent dasymetric mapping using landscape metrics generally outperforms the two baseline models. We further compare the performance of landscape metrics as an ancillary source of information for dasymetric mapping against other traditionally-used datasets (e.g., land use, roads, nighttime lights data) in three states (Connecticut, South Carolina, and New Mexico) in 2000. We find that class area, landscape shape index, and number of patches consistently achieve lower error rates than other ancillary datasets in all the three states.

Prescribed fire after thinning increased resistance of sub-Mediterranean pine forests to drought events and wildfires / Lena Vilà-Vilardell in Forest ecology and management, vol 527 (January-1 2023)  

Public [article]  inForest ecology and management > vol 527 (January-1 2023) . - n° 120602 Titre : Prescribed fire after thinning increased resistance of sub-Mediterranean pine forests to drought events and wildfires Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Lena Vilà-Vilardell, Auteur ; Miquel De Cáceres, Auteur ; Míriam Piqué, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : n° 120602 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] brûlis [Termes IGN] éclaircie (sylviculture) [Termes IGN] incendie de forêt [Termes IGN] Pinus nigra [Termes IGN] sécheresse [Termes IGN] sous-étage [Termes IGN] stress hydrique [Termes IGN] structure d'un peuplement forestier [Termes IGN] vulnérabilité [Vedettes matières IGN] Végétation et changement climatique Résumé : (auteur) Vegetation structure affects the vulnerability of a forest to drought events and wildfires. Management decisions, such as thinning intensity and type of understory treatment, influence competition for water resources and amount of fuel available. While heavy thinning effectively reduces tree water stress and intensity of a crown fire, the duration of these benefits may be limited by a fast growth response of the understory. Our aim was to study the effect of forest structure on pine forests vulnerability to extreme drought events and on the potential wildfire behaviour after management, with a special focus on the role of the understory. In three sub-Mediterranean sites of NE Spain dominated by Pinus nigra, two intensities of thinning (light: aiming at 70–75% canopy cover; and heavy: aiming at 50–60% canopy cover) followed by two understory treatments (mechanical only and mechanical plus prescribed burning) were applied, resulting in four differently managed stands plus an untreated control per site. Four to five years after management, we measured forest structure (overstory in one 314 m2 circular plot and understory in 20 quadrats of 1 m2 per treatment unit) and fuel load (in two 10 m transects per treatment unit) and simulated water balance and fire behaviour under extreme weather conditions. Understory contribution was assessed comparing the real structure with a virtual forest stand where understory vegetation equalled the one of the untreated control. Our results suggest that the resulting mid-term structure following treatments effectively reduced water stress and fire behaviour compared with untreated control, and that the most effective treatments were the ones where prescribed burning was applied after light or heavy thinning. While understory clearing contributes to increase the resistance to both disturbances, an additive effect of burning the debris reduced the vulnerability to drought and wildfires after treatments. Our study highlights the importance of managing the understory to further increase forest resistance to both disturbances.

Public [article]  inSustainable Cities and Society > vol 88 (January 2023) . - n° 104251 Titre : Simplified automatic prediction of the level of damage to similar buildings affected by river flood in a specific area Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : David Marín-García, Auteur ; Juan Rubio-Gómez-Torga, Auteur ; Manuel Duarte-Pinheiro, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : n° 104251 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de télédétection [Termes IGN] acquisition de données [Termes IGN] Andalousie [Termes IGN] apprentissage automatique [Termes IGN] bassin hydrographique [Termes IGN] bâtiment [Termes IGN] cartographie des risques [Termes IGN] coefficient de corrélation [Termes IGN] dommage matériel [Termes IGN] évaluation des paramètres [Termes IGN] image à haute résolution [Termes IGN] modèle de simulation [Termes IGN] zone inondable Résumé : (auteur) Flooding due to overflowing rivers affects the construction elements of many buildings. Although significant progress has been made in predicting this damage, there is still a need to continue studying this issue. For this reason, the main goal of this research focuses on finding out if, based on a small dataset of cases of a given area, it is possible to predict at least three degrees of affectation in buildings, considering only three environmental factors (minimum distance from the river, unevenness and possible water communication). To meet this goal, the methodological approach followed considers scientific literature review and collection and analysis of a small dataset from 101 buildings that have been affected by floods in the Guadalquivir River basin (Andalusia. Spain). After analyzing this data, algorithms based on machine learning (ML) are applied to predict the degree of affection. The results, analysis and conclusions indicate that, if the study focuses on a specific area and similar buildings, using a correlation matrix and ML algorithms such as the "Decision Tree" with cross-validation, around 90% can be achieved in the "Recall" and "Precision" of "High-Level-Affection" class, and an “Accuracy” around 80% in general.

Establishing a GIS-based evaluation method considering spatial heterogeneity for debris flow susceptibility mapping at the regional scale / Shengwu Qin in Natural Hazards, vol 114 n° 3 (December 2022)  

Public [article]  inNatural Hazards > vol 114 n° 3 (December 2022) . - pp 2709 - 2738 Titre : Establishing a GIS-based evaluation method considering spatial heterogeneity for debris flow susceptibility mapping at the regional scale Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Shengwu Qin, Auteur ; Shuangshuang Qiao, Auteur ; Jingyu Yao, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : pp 2709 - 2738 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications SIG [Termes IGN] cartographie des risques [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] éboulement [Termes IGN] hétérogénéité spatiale [Termes IGN] prévention des risques [Termes IGN] séparateur à vaste marge [Termes IGN] système d'information géographique Résumé : (auteur) Susceptibility mapping is an effective means of preventing debris flow disasters. However, previous studies have failed to solve spatial heterogeneity well, especially at the regional scale. The main objective of this study is to solve the spatial heterogeneity of regional-scale debris flow susceptibility (DFS) mapping by establishing a geographic information system (GIS)-based processing framework. The framework was realized by integrating the determination factor (DFactor) model with machine learning models. The DFactor model established different combinations of evaluation factors in each local region and clarified the differing contributions of influencing factors to DFS. To test the feasibility of the framework, the support vector machine (SVM) and two-dimensional convolutional neural network (CNN) were integrated with the DFactor model (DFactor-SVM and DFactor-CNN) to evaluate DFS in Jilin Province, China. The individual models (SVM and CNN) were also used to map the DFS for comparison with the integrated models. For debris flow modeling, 868 debris flow samples were collected and randomly divided into two datasets: 70% of the samples were used for training and the result was used for verification. The results of the receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the integrated models performed better. The DFactor-CNN model had the highest predictive accuracy, followed by the DFactor-SVM, CNN and SVM models. In general, the GIS-based processing framework maximizes the contribution of the influencing factors to debris flows and enhances the prediction ability of models. Furthermore, it provides a reliable means to predict debris flows at the regional scale.

In this paper, we present our recent development of a web mapping facility that can be used to extract interesting stories and unique insights from a diverse range of socio-economic and demographic variables and indicators, derived from a variety of datasets. We then use three curated narratives to show that online maps are effective ways of interactive storytelling and visualisation, which allow users to tailor their own story maps. We discuss the reasons for the revival of the recent attention to narrative mapping and conclude that our interactive web mapping facility powered by data assets can be employed as an accessible and powerful toolkit, to identify geographic patterns of various social and economic phenomena by social scientists, journalists, policymakers, and the public.
