AN EVALUATION OF SAS/GRAPH SOFTWARE FOR COMPUTER CARTOGRAPHY1     

Alan M. Baker  Rowan Faludi  David R. Green 《The Professional geographer》1985,37(2):204-214

The SAS® computer software system, widely used and respected for its capabilities in statistical analysis and data base management, now includes a new set of graphic and cartographic procedures called SAS GRAPH?. We have used these cartographic procedures in research on mapping ethno-cultural census data from metropolitan areas in Ontario and in undergraduate and graduate courses in computer cartography. On the basis of that experience, we describe and evaluate SAS/GRAPH'S cartographic capabilities and illustrate with maps drawn by various devices.  相似文献   

Incorporating Māori values into land management decision tools     

Shannan K. Crow  Kyle D. Nelson  Amy L. Whitehead 《新西兰海洋与淡水研究杂志》2020,54(3):431-448

ABSTRACT

Environmental sustainability and the long-term wellbeing of Māori (the indigenous people of New Zealand) are interdependent and degradation of landscapes risks the progressive degradation of Māori wellbeing. The present study developed an analysis framework based on Ki Uta Ki Tai (holistic-mountains to the sea- management philosophy advocated by Ngāi Tahu) for exploring relationships between landcover and Māori values to enable predictions of cultural values through space and time. We used this framework to predict how two Māori values (Overall Health and Cultural Land Use) have been altered as a result of landcover change between 2001–2012 in three Canterbury catchments. The area of native vegetation declined while exotic pasture increased between 2001–2012, and there were corresponding declines in both cultural health scores. These results suggest that the change in landcover has reduced the ability of the landscape to support Māori values. This framework for assessing changes in Māori values with respect to changing environmental conditions may identify opportunities for Māori to better engage in land use management decisions.  相似文献   

等高线自动绘制中断层处理的新方法     

刘传志  张华  张亚男  汪云甲 《海洋测绘》2005,25(3):70-73

提出了一种断层处理新方法——分块法与断层恢复法合成算法，这种方法兼有分块法与断层恢复法的优点同时又克服了其不足，较好地解决了含逆断层时煤层底板等高线自动绘制及任意边界的构网问题，使绘出的等值线图误差较小，更加符合实际。  相似文献

Rethinking Precolonial Plant Cultivation on the Northwest Coast of North America     

Douglas Deur 《The Professional geographer》2002,54(2):140-157

The indigenous peoples of the Northwest Coast of North America are widely believed to have been true “hunter‐fisher‐gatherers,” lacking plant cultivation of any kind. This depiction of the region's indigenous inhabitants emerged within early colonial accounts and was perpetuated within the literatures of geography, anthropology, and archaeology. Still, there is ample evidence of plant cultivation available from archival, archaeological, and ethnographic sources. In particular, the peoples of coastal British Columbia created large gardens of edible estuarine plants, using sophisticated indigenous technologies. The oversight of these practices in written representations of the region reveals consistent patterns of bias, emanating from the agendas of colonial agents and early academics alike. In turn, this bias has undermined aboriginal traditions of cultivation and indigenous land claims.  相似文献

Amelioration of soil fertility by woody perennials in cropping fields: evaluation of three tree species in the semi-arid zone of Nigeria     

I. A. Jaiyeoba 《Journal of Arid Environments》1996,33(4):473-482

Soil was sampled from cropping fields in radial patterns from beneathAcacia albida, Parkia bigloboza(Jacq.) Benth. andEucalyptus camaldulensisDehnh. near Zaria, Nigeria. Results of analysis show a significant coarsening of soil texture and a decrease in organic matter and cation exchange capacity with increasing distance from all three tree species at a depth of 0–15 cm. Concentrations of nitrogen and some exchangeable cations decreased significantly with increasing distance from beneath acacia and parkia, and soil pH decreased with increasing distance from eucalyptus. The implication of the results for land management are discussed in relation to increasing productivity and soil use sustainability.  相似文献   

现代专题地图制图研究进展与趋势分析     

赵飞  杜清运 《测绘科学》2016,41(1):80-84

针对专题地图制作相关研究不足的问题,该文通过归纳总结专题地图理论与应用、网络共享等方面的研究进展,从功能转变、模式转变和内涵冲击三方面分析专题地图研究趋势,并探讨现有制图理论技术存在的不足之处。文章认为:研究专题地图符号的内在结构及统一构建方式,在符号学和微观语言学的理论框架下建立专题符号句法模式,注重对专题地图符号模型的整体描述,并通过相应制图模型的研究来优化制图过程,发掘和创新制图理论成果,将会促进专题地图理论的完善,深化专题符号的自适应表达。  相似文献
