  1. 1. Perception accuracy and user acceptance of legend designs for opacity data mapping in GIS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Jonas Tillman; [2022]
    Keywords : GIS; Data Visualisation; Legends; Opacity; Transparency; Visual Data Encoding; Perception; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In a GIS system, the need to encode geospatial data without standardized cartographic representations, such as population data, weather information, etc., on top of a map is common. This can be done with a layer on top of a base map, with the effect that the base map is partially or fully hidden. READ MORE

    Keywords : Mergers Acquisitions; M A; Credit Risk; Investment Risk; Default Risk; The Institutional Imperative; Merton’s Distance-to-Default model; Merton’s DD; Value-at-Risk; VaR; Tail risk.;

    Abstract : We examine the impact of Mergers & Acquisitions on credit- and investment risk using a sample of 402 acquisitions by 215 Swedish firms from 2000 to 2020. We find significant evidence that, on average, M&A increases the credit risk and inversely decreases the investment risk of the acquiring firm. READ MORE

    Abstract : In this research, automatic point cloud modeling strategies have been tested to find the best strategies to model walls, floors and ceilings classes in terms of processing time and accuracy. The modeling was applied on a point cloud data related to the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction field which is a point cloud of a building collected by Sweco company in Sweden. READ MORE

  5. 5. Visibility in Smoke With Different Extinction Coefficients

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Lea Elhokayem; [2022]
    Keywords : Visibility; smoke; exit sign; extinction coefficient; visibility constant; evacuation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Visibility in smoke has since the 1970s gained some attention, mostly after Tadahisa Jin ran the experiments which helped him develop todays widely used visibility equation. By showing that visibility can be assumed to be inversely proportional to the extinction coefficient by a visibility constant (equal to 8 for light emitting sign and 3 for light reflecting), Jin opened up new doors for researchers who were testing out his theory by going around experimenting in different ways and also by showing that there is way for more research to be done.
