1. Kriging radio environment map construction
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : With the massive increase in usage of some parts of the electromagnetic spectrum during the last decades, the ability to create real time maps of signal coverage is now more important than ever before. This Masters project is designed to test two different methods of generating such maps with a one second limit to processing time. READ MORE

2. Mapping Noise Pollution with Open-source GIS
University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/SamhällsbyggnadAbstract : In a time when urban areas continue to expand, environmental noise pollution especially from road traffic remains a big challenge. This study was aimed at using open-source GIS tools to predict road traffic noise pollution using the mid-sized city of Gävle as a case study. READ MORE

3. Interpolation and visualization of sparse GPR data
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysikAbstract : Ground Penetrating Radar is a tool for mapping the subsurface in a noninvasive way. The radar instrument transmits electromagnetic waves and records the resulting scattered field. Unfortunately, the data from a survey can be hard to interpret, and this holds extra true for non-experts in the field. The data are also usually in 2. READ MORE

4. Evaluation of water stress mapping methods in vineyards using airborne thermal imaging
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : With low cost and high efficiency, use of airborne infrared thermography imaging from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has become a widely used technique to measure plant water stress. With that, the use of UAV mounted thermal camera as a precision agriculture technique to map crop water stress is not trivial and its success is depended on variety of factors which are still needed to be studied and understood.

5. Evaluating spatial mapping using interpolation techniques
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskapAbstract : In this thesis, the inverse distance weighting, different kriging methods, ordinary least squares and two variants of the geographically weighted regression was used to evaluate the spatial mapping abilities on an observed dataset and a simulated dataset. The two datasets contain the same bioclimatic variable, near-surface air temperature, uniformly distributed over the whole world. READ MORE
