Therefore, we studied the spatial patterns of living and dead small trees in two subalpine Norway spruce forest reserves in Switzerland (Scatlè and Bödmerenwald) using three types of analyses. First, we investigated the distances of small trees to the nearest large neighboring tree and, by using maximum distances as indicator, inferred the size of forest gaps, detecting mainly forest gaps of small size, although with two exceptions that were driven by large-scale disturbances. Second, we accounted for spatial inhomogeneity in the pattern of small and large trees (i.e., variations in local tree densities) by including environmental covariates in point pattern models. Latitude (within the forest reserve), elevation and aspect contributed significantly to explaining the density of living and dead small trees, and partly of living and dead large trees. Yet, the influence of these environmental covariates varied between the two reserves due to their different topography and peculiar site conditions. Third, we analyzed neighborhood interactions between small and large trees based on the vicinity and size of trees. In both forest reserves, small living trees were randomly dispersed around large dead trees over a broad range of distances and, at certain distances in one reserve, even dispersed away from them. Small living trees further showed clustering around large living trees at short distances and dispersion at large distances. Small dead trees featured mainly a random pattern, although with a tendency to cluster around large neighbors at short distances, irrespective whether these were living or dead. Yet, the weakening of clustering with increasing distances indicates that the influence of large trees on small trees varies with spatial scale and thus that these neighborhood interactions are scale-dependent. Overall, our study contributes to a better understanding of the spatial ecology of mortality in small trees and ultimately of tree regeneration processes and stand dynamics in mountain forests.

Gravitational field modelling near irregularly shaped bodies using spherical harmonics: a case study for the asteroid (101955) Bennu / Blažej Bucha in Journal of geodesy, vol 95 n° 5 (May 2021)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 95 n° 5 (May 2021) . - n° 56 Titre : Gravitational field modelling near irregularly shaped bodies using spherical harmonics: a case study for the asteroid (101955) Bennu Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Blažej Bucha, Auteur ; Fernando Sanso, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 56 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] astéroïde [Termes IGN] champ de gravitation [Termes IGN] champ de pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] convergence [Termes IGN] harmonique sphérique [Termes IGN] intégrale de Newton Résumé : (auteur) We apply three spherical-harmonic-based techniques to deliver external gravitational field models of the asteroid (101955) Bennu within its circumscribing sphere. This region is known to be peculiar for external spherical harmonic expansions, because it may lead to a divergent series. The studied approaches are (i) spectral gravity forward modelling via external spherical harmonics, (ii) the least-squares estimation from surface gravitational data using external spherical harmonics and (iii) the combination of internal and external series expansions. While the first method diverges beyond any reasonable doubts, we show that the other two methods may ensure relative accuracy from ∼10−6 to 10−8 in the vicinity of Bennu. This is possible even with the second method, despite the fact that it relies on a single series of external spherical harmonics. Our main motivation was to study conceptual differences between spherical harmonic coefficients from satellite data (analogy to the first method) and from surface gravitational data (the second method). Such coefficients are available through the popular spherical-harmonic-based models of the Earth’s gravitational field and often are combined together. We show that the coefficients from terrestrial data may lead to a divergence effect of partial sums, though excellent accuracy can be achieved when such model is used in full. Under (presently) extreme but realistic conditions, the divergence effect of partial sums may affect many near-surface geoscientific applications, such as the geoid/quasigeoid computation or residual terrain modelling.

A Voronoi-based method for land-use optimization using semidefinite programming and gradient descent algorithm / Vorapong Suppakitpaisarn in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 35 n° 5 (May 2021)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of geographical information science IJGIS > vol 35 n° 5 (May 2021) . - pp 999 - 1031 Titre : A Voronoi-based method for land-use optimization using semidefinite programming and gradient descent algorithm Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Vorapong Suppakitpaisarn, Auteur ; Atthaphon Ariyarit, Auteur ; Supanut Chaidee, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 999 - 1031 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Analyse spatiale [Termes IGN] algorithme du gradient [Termes IGN] algorithme génétique [Termes IGN] benchmark spatial [Termes IGN] diagramme de Voronoï [Termes IGN] mode d'occupation du sol [Termes IGN] Thaïlande [Termes IGN] utilisation du sol Résumé : (Auteur) The land-use optimization involves divisions of land into subregions to obtain spatial configuration of compact subregions and desired connections among them. Computational geometry-based algorithms, such as Voronoi diagram, are known to be efficient and suitable for iterative design processes to achieve land-use optimization. However, such algorithms assume that generating point positions are given as inputs, while we usually do not know the positions in advance. In this study, we propose a method to automatically calculate the suitable point positions. The method uses (1) semidefinite programming to approximate locations while maintaining relative positions among locations; and (2) gradient descent to iteratively update locations subject to area constraints. We apply the proposed framework to a practical case at Chiang Mai University and compare its performance with a benchmark, the differential genetic algorithm. The results show that the proposed method is 28 times faster than the differential genetic algorithm, while the resulting land allocation error is slightly larger than that of the benchmark but still acceptable. Additionally, the output does not contain disconnected areas, as found in all evolutionary computations, and the compactness is almost equal to the maximum possible value.

Public [article]  inGeodesy and cartography > vol 47 n° 1 (January 2021) . - pp 10 - 20 Titre : Spatial analysis of subway passenger traffic in Saint-Petersburg Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Tatiana Baltyzhakova, Auteur ; Aleksei Romanchicov, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 10 - 20 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Analyse spatiale [Termes IGN] Blender [Termes IGN] diagramme de Voronoï [Termes IGN] flux [Termes IGN] Mapbox [Termes IGN] modèle numérique de surface [Termes IGN] planification urbaine [Termes IGN] QGIS [Termes IGN] R (langage) [Termes IGN] Saint-Petersbourg [Termes IGN] trafic [Termes IGN] transport public Résumé : (auteur) The purpose of the paper is to create clear visualization of passenger traffic for Saint Petersburg subway system. This visualization can be used to better understand the passenger flow and to make more informed decisions in future planning. Research was based on officially published information about passenger traffic on subway station for years 2016 and 2018. Visualization was created with the variety of methods and software: Voronoi diagrams (QGIS software), social gravitation potential (R programming language), presentation of gravitation potential as a relief (Blender software), service zones of ground transport accessibility (2GIS, QGIS and Mapbox mapping platform). In this research, authors propose the use of intersection between the service zones and social gravitation potential isolines as an instrument for spatial analysis of traffic data. Analysis shown that current development of subway system does not correspond to passenger distribution. All stations were classified according to their accessibility and propositions about future directions of development were made.

Probabilistic positioning in mobile phone network and its consequences for the privacy of mobility data / Aleksey Ogulenko in Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, vol 85 (January 2021)  

Public [article]  inComputers, Environment and Urban Systems > vol 85 (January 2021) . - n° 101550 Titre : Probabilistic positioning in mobile phone network and its consequences for the privacy of mobility data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Aleksey Ogulenko, Auteur ; Itzhak Benenson, Auteur ; Itzhak Omer, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 101550 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Analyse spatiale [Termes IGN] antenne [Termes IGN] classification bayesienne [Termes IGN] confidentialité [Termes IGN] diagramme de Voronoï [Termes IGN] estimation bayesienne [Termes IGN] géolocalisation [Termes IGN] inférence [Termes IGN] protection de la vie privée [Termes IGN] réseau téléphonique [Termes IGN] téléphonie mobile [Termes IGN] tessellation Résumé : (auteur) The traditional approach to mobile phone positioning is based on the assumption that the geographical location of a cell tower recorded in a Call Details Record (CDR) is a proxy for a device's location. A Voronoi tessellation is then constructed based on the entire network of cell towers and this tessellation is considered as a coordinate system, with the device located in a Voronoi polygon of a cell tower that is recorded in the CDR. If Voronoi-based positioning is correct, the uniqueness of the device trajectory is very high, and the device can be identified based on 3–5 of its recorded locations. We investigate a probabilistic approach to device positioning that is based on knowledge of each antennas' parameters and number of connections, as dependent on the distance to the antenna. The critical difference between the Voronoi-based and the real world layout is in the essential overlap of the antennas' service areas: The device that is located in a cell tower's polygon can be served by a more distant antenna that is chosen by the network system to balance the network load. Combining data on the distance distribution of the number of connections available for each antenna in the network, we resolve the overlap problem by applying Bayesian inference and construct a realistic distribution of the device location. Probabilistic device positioning demands a full revision of mobile phone privacy and new full set of tools for data analysis.
