Spatio-temporal analysis of malaria incidence in the Peruvian Amazon Region between 2002 and 2013
(Springer Nature, 2017)
Malaria remains a major public health problem in the Peruvian Amazon where the persistence of high-risk transmission areas (hotspots) challenges the current malaria control strategies. This study aimed at identifying ...
Spatial analysis and GIS in the study of COVID-19. A review
This study entailed a review of 63 scientific articles on geospatial and spatial-statistical analysis of the geographical dimension of the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The diversity of themes identified ...
Modelling fungus dispersal scenarios using cellular automata
(2013-03-01)
This study focused on representing spatio-temporal patterns of fungal dispersal using cellular automata. Square lattices were used, with each site representing a host for a hypothetical fungus population. Four possible ...
Historical amphibian declines and extinctions in Brazil linked to chytridiomycosis
(2017-02-08)
The recent increase in emerging fungal diseases is causing unprecedented threats to biodiversity. The origin of spread of the frog-killing fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is a matter of continued debate. To date, ...
Rock art and technology. A spatio-temporal proposal from the upper basin of the Limari river, north central Chile
(Routledge, 2018)
In this chapter we develop a methodological proposal to overcome the distinction between temporal and spatial dimensions in the technological study of rock art. We built a set of analytical units and variables that render ...
Does the spatiotemporal distribution of tweets match the spatiotemporal distribution of flood phenomena? A study about the River Elbe Flood in June 2013
(The Pennsylvania State UniversityUniversity ParkPennsylvania, 2014-05-18)
In this paper we present a new approach to enhance information extraction from social media that relies upon
the geographical relations between twitter data and flood phenomena. We use specific geographical features like ...
On the social and spatiotemporal aspects for urban computing
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisBrasilICX - DEPARTAMENTO DE CIÊNCIA DA COMPUTAÇÃOPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ciência da ComputaçãoUFMG, 2019-11-22)
In this thesis, we address urban sensing approaches, especially the challenge of providing scalable sensing systems of social, spatial and temporal variables for urban scenarios. We deal with the problem of obtaining ...
