Modeling spatial autocorrelation in spatial interaction data: empirical evidence from 2002 Germany journey-to-work flows 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
Daniel A. Griffith 《Journal of Geographical Systems》2009,11(2):117-140
Since before the inception of work by Okabe, the intermingling of spatial autocorrelation (i.e., local distance and configuration)
and distance decay (i.e., global distance) effects has been suspected in spatial interaction data. This convolution was first
treated conceptually because technology and methodology did not exist at the time to easily or fully address spatial autocorrelation
effects within spatial interaction model specifications. Today, however, sufficient computer power coupled with eigenfunction-based
spatial filtering offers a means for accommodating spatial autocorrelation effects within a spatial interaction model for
modest-sized problems. In keeping with Okabe’s more recent efforts to dissemination spatial analysis tools, this paper summarizes
how to implement the methodology utilized to analyze a particular empirical flows dataset.

Show me the code: spatial analysis and open source 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
Sergio J. Rey 《Journal of Geographical Systems》2009,11(2):191-207
This paper considers the intersection of academic spatial analysis with the open source revolution. Its basic premise is that
the potential for cross-fertilization between the two is rich, yet some misperceptions about these two communities pose challenges
to realizing these opportunities. The paper provides a primer on the open source movement for academicians with an eye towards
correcting these misperceptions. It identifies a number of ways in which increased adoption of open source practices in spatial
analysis can enhance the development of the next generation of tools and the wider practice of scientific research and education.

Identifying barriers of species and characterize their effects on spatial distribution provide essential information to research
in landscape genetics. We propose a weighted difference barrier (WDB) method as an alternative to maximum difference barriers
(MDB), and to initiate and integrate more spatial modeling and methods into the problem solving process. Overall, WDB provides
quick and straightforward improvements to the drawbacks of MDB. WDB integrates more sample location relationships into the
barrier construction and reveals potential barriers that would otherwise go undetected. WDB incorporates both within group
and between group genetic information, and delineates the barriers as a more complex pattern.

Separate space- or time-lags have been considered regularly in data analyses; as space–time models are more recently being
studied extensively in data analytic fashion, joint estimation of both lags has to be considered explicitly. This paper addresses
this issue, taking into special consideration parametric parsimony together with specification richness; use of the bivariate
Poisson frequency distribution is advocated and applied to an empirical case. The relation of this approach to random effects
specifications is investigated. Data for Belgian regional products constitute the empirical case study.

A sampling approach to estimate the log determinant used in spatial likelihood problems 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Likelihood-based methods for modeling multivariate Gaussian spatial data have desirable statistical characteristics, but the
practicality of these methods for massive georeferenced data sets is often questioned. A sampling algorithm is proposed that
exploits a relationship involving log-pivots arising from matrix decompositions used to compute the log determinant term that
appears in the model likelihood. We demonstrate that the method can be used to successfully estimate log-determinants for
large numbers of observations. Specifically, we produce an log-determinant estimate for a 3,954,400 by 3,954,400 matrix in
less than two minutes on a desktop computer. The proposed method involves computations that are independent, making it amenable
to out-of-core computation as well as to coarse-grained parallel or distributed processing. The proposed technique yields
an estimated log-determinant and associated confidence interval.

The architecture of the ultra-tight GPS/INS/PL integration is the key to its successful performance; the main feature of this
architecture is the Doppler feedback to the GPS receiver tracking loops. This Doppler derived from INS, when integrated with
the carrier tracking loops, removes the Doppler due to vehicle dynamics from the GPS/PL signal thereby achieving a significant
reduction in the carrier tracking loop bandwidth. The bandwidth reduction provides several advantages such as: improvement
in anti-jamming performance, and increase in post correlated signal strength which in turn increases the dynamic range and
accuracy of measurements. Therefore, any degradation in the derived Doppler estimates will directly affect the tracking loop
bandwidth and hence its performance. The quadrature signals from the receiver correlator, I (in-phase) and Q (quadrature),
form the measurements, whereas the inertial sensor errors, position, velocity and attitude errors form the states of the complementary
Kalman filter. To specify a reliable measurement model of the filter for this type of integrated system, a good understanding
of GPS/PL signal characteristics is essential. It is shown in this paper that phase and frequency errors are the variables
that relate the measurements and the states in the Kalman filter. The main focus of this paper is to establish the fundamental
mathematical relationships that form the measurement model, and to show explicitly how the system error states are related
to the GPS/PL signals. The derived mathematical relationships encapsulated in a Kalman filter, are tested by simulation and
shown to be valid.

Forecasting the impact of transport improvements on commuting and residential choice 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
This paper develops a probabilistic, competing-destinations, assignment model that predicts changes in the spatial pattern
of the working population as a result of transport improvements. The choice of residence is explained by a new non-parametric
model, which represents an alternative to the popular multinominal logit model. Travel times between zones are approximated
by a normal distribution function with different mean and variance for each pair of zones, whereas previous models only use
average travel times. The model’s forecast error of the spatial distribution of the Dutch working population is 7% when tested
on 1998 base-year data. To incorporate endogenous changes in its causal variables, an almost ideal demand system is estimated
to explain the choice of transport mode, and a new economic geography inter-industry model (RAEM) is estimated to explain
the spatial distribution of employment. In the application, the model is used to forecast the impact of six mutually exclusive
Dutch core-periphery railway proposals in the projection year 2020.

Pseudorange-based integrity monitoring, for example receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM), has been investigated
for many years and is used in various applications such as non-precision approach phase of flight. However, for high-accuracy
applications, carrier phase-based RAIM (CRAIM), an extension of pseudorange-based RAIM (PRAIM) must be used. Existing CRAIM
algorithms are a direct extension of PRAIM in which the carrier phase ambiguities are estimated together with the estimation
of the position solution. The main issues with the existing algorithms are reliability and robustness, which are dominated
by the correctness of the ambiguity resolution, ambiguity validation and error sources such as multipath, cycle slips and
noise correlation. This paper proposes a new carrier phase-based integrity monitoring algorithm for high-accuracy positioning,
using a Kalman filter. The ambiguities are estimated together with other states in the Kalman filter. The double differenced
pseudorange, widelane and carrier phase observations are used as measurements in the Kalman filter. This configuration makes
the positioning solution both robust and reliable. The integrity monitoring is based on a number of test statistics and error
propagation for the determination of the protection levels. The measurement noise and covariance matrices in the Kalman filter
are used to account for the correlation due to differencing of measurements and in the construction of the test statistics.
The coefficient used to project the test statistic to the position domain is derived and the synthesis of correlated noise
errors is used to determine the protection level. Results from four cases based on limited real data injected with simulated
cycle slips show that residual cycle slips have a negative impact on positioning accuracy and that the integrity monitoring
algorithm proposed can be effective in detecting and isolating such occurrences if their effects violate the integrity requirements.
The CRAIM algorithm proposed is suitable for use within Kalman filter-based integrated navigation systems.

A constrained LAMBDA method for GPS attitude determination 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
An improved method to obtain fixed integer ambiguity in GPS attitude determination is presented. Known conditions are utilized
as constraints to acquire attitude information when the float solution and its variance–covariance matrix are not accurate
enough. The searching ellipsoidal region is first expanded to compensate for errors caused by the inaccurate float solution.
Then the constraints are used to shrink the region to a proper size, which maintains the true integer ambiguity. Experimental
results demonstrate that this scheme gives a fast search time and a higher success rate in determining the fixed integer ambiguity
than the unconstrained method. The accuracy of attitude angles is also improved.

Area coverage maximization in service facility siting 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
Traditionally, models for siting facilities in order to optimize coverage of area demand have made use of discrete space representations
to efficiently handle both candidate facility locations and demand. These discretizations of space are often necessary given
the linear functional forms of many siting models and the complexities associated with evaluating continuous space. Recently,
several spatial optimization approaches have been proposed to address the more general problem of identifying facility sites
that maximize regional coverage for the case where candidate sites and demand are continuously distributed across space. One
assumption of existing approaches is that only demand falling within a prescribed radius of the facility can be effectively
served. In many practical applications, however, service areas are not necessarily circular, as terrain, transportation, and
service characteristics of the facility often result in irregular shapes. This paper develops a generalized service coverage
approach, allowing a sited facility to have any continuous service area shape, not simply a circle. Given that demand and
facility sites are assumed to be continuous throughout a region, geometrical properties of the demand region and the service
facility coverage area are exploited to identify a facility site to optimize the correspondence between the two areas. In
particular, we consider the case where demand is uniformly distributed and the service area is translated to maximize coverage.
A heuristic approach is proposed for efficient model solution. Application results are presented for siting a facility given
differently shaped service areas.

Total electron content processing from GPS observations to facilitate ionospheric modeling 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
With the increasing global distribution of high rate dual-frequency global positioning system (GPS) receivers, the production
of a real-time atmospheric constituent definition, total electron content (TEC), has become a beneficial contributor to the
modeling applications used in the assessment of GPS position accuracy and the composition of the ionosphere, plasmasphere,
and troposphere. Historically, TEC measurements have been obtained through post processing techniques to produce the quality
of data necessary for modeling applications with rigorous error estimate requirements. These procedures necessitated the collection
of large volumes of data to address the various abnormalities in the computation of TEC associated with the use of greater
data quality controls and source selection while real-time modeling environments must rely on autonomous controls and filtration
techniques to prevent the production of erroneous model results. In this paper we present methods for processing TEC in real
time, which utilize several procedures including the application of an ionospheric model to automatically perform quality
control on the TEC output and the computational techniques used to address receiver multipath, faulty receiver observations,
cycle-slips, segmented processing, and receiver calibrations. The resulting TEC measurements are provided with rigorous error
estimates validated using the vertical TEC from the Jason satellite mission.

Ionospheric delay corrections for single-frequency GPS receivers over Europe using tomographic mapping 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
The majority of navigation satellites receivers operate on a single frequency and experience a positioning error due to the
ionospheric delay. This can be compensated for using a variety of approaches that are compared in this paper. The study focuses
on the last solar maximum. A 4D tomographic imaging technique is used to map the ionospheric electron density over the European
region during 2002 and 2003. The electron density maps are then used to calculate the excess propagation delay on the L1 frequency
experienced by GPS receivers at selected locations across Europe. The excess delay is applied to correct the pseudo-range
single frequency observations at each location and the improvements to the resulting positioning are calculated. The real-time
tomographic technique is shown to give navigation solutions that are better than empirical modelling methods and approach
the accuracy of the full dual-frequency solution. The improvements in positioning accuracy vary from day to day depending
on ionospheric conditions but can be up to 25 m during mid-day during these solar maximum conditions at European mid-latitudes.

Analysis of inversion errors of ionospheric radio occultation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The retrieved electron density profile of ionospheric radio occultation (RO) simulation data can be compared with the background
model value during the simulation and the inversion error can be obtained exactly. This paper studies the inversion error
of ionospheric RO through simulation. The sources of the inversion errors are analyzed. The impacts of measurement errors,
such as the errors in phase measurements and satellite orbits, are very small and can be neglected. The approximation of straight-line
propagation introduces errors at the height of the F1 layer under solar maximum condition. The spherical symmetry approximation
of the electron density distribution is found to be the main source of the inversion error. The statistical results reveal
some characteristics of the inversion errors. (1) The relative error increases with enhanced solar activity. (2) It is larger
in winter than in equinox season, and it is smallest in summer. (3) For all seasons, it is smaller at middle latitude than
at other latitudes. (4) For all seasons and geomagnetic latitudes, it is smaller at daytime than at other times. The NmF2
of the ROs from COSMIC are compared with the measurements of ionosondes, and the relative differences show the same dependencies
on season, geomagnetic latitude and local time, as the relative errors of the simulated ionospheric ROs.

In this article, an algorithm for clock offset estimation of the GPS satellites is presented. The algorithm is based on a
Kalman-filter and processes undifferenced code and carrier-phase measurements of a global tracking network. The clock offset
and drift of the satellite clocks are estimated along with tracking station clock offsets, tropospheric zenith path delay
and carrier-phase ambiguities. The article provides a brief overview of already existing near-real-time and real-time clock
products. The filter algorithm and data processing scheme is presented. Finally, the accuracy of the orbit and clock product
is assessed with a precise orbit determination of the MetOp satellite and compared to results gained with other real-time
products.

In this paper a MATLAB toolbox for determining the attitude of a rigid platform by means of multiple non-dedicated antennas
using global positioning system is presented. The programs embedded in this toolbox cover the RINEX data analysis, single
point positioning, differential positioning, coordinate conversion, attitude determination, and other auxiliary functions.
After forming the baselines through double-differenced (carrier phase smoothed) code observables, the attitude parameters
are obtained by applying the direct attitude computation and the least squares attitude estimation. The theoretical background
is summarized, and some hints regarding the software implementation are given in the paper. Moreover, improvements yielding
an expanded functionality are proposed.

Digital mobile mapping, the method that integrates digital imaging with direct geo-referencing, has developed rapidly over
the past 15 years. The Kalman filter (KF) is considered an optimal estimation tool for real-time INS/GPS integrated kinematic
positioning and orientation determination. However, the accuracy requirements of general mobile mapping applications cannot
be easily achieved even when using the KF scheme. Therefore, this study proposes an intelligent scheme combining ANN and RTS
backward smoother to overcome the limitations of KF and to enhance the overall accuracy of attitude determination for tactical
grade and MEMS INS/GPS integrated systems.

In Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning, the receiver measures the pseudorange with respect to each observable
navigation satellite and determines the position and clock bias. In addition to the GPS, several other navigation satellite
constellations including Glonass, Galileo and Compass can/will also be used to provide positioning, navigation, and timing
information. The paper is concerned with the solvability of the navigation problem when the receiver attempts to process measurements
from different constellations. As two different constellations may not be time-synchronized, the navigation problem involves
the determination of position of the receiver and clock bias with respect to each constellation. The paper describes an analytic
approach to account for the two-constellation navigation problem with three measurements from one constellation and two measurements
from another constellation. It is shown that the two-constellation GNSS navigation problem becomes the solving of a set of
two simultaneous quadratic equations or, equivalently, a quartic equation. Furthermore, the zero-crossover of the leading
coefficient and the sign of the discriminant of the quartic equation are shown to play a significant role in governing the
solvability, i.e., the existence and uniqueness of the navigation solutions.

Antenna changes at GNSS reference stations frequently produce discontinuities in the coordinate time series. These apparent
position shifts are mainly caused by changes of carrier-phase multipath effects and different errors in the antenna phase
center corrections. A monitoring method was developed and successfully tested, which requires additional GNSS observations
from a local, temporary reference station. Changes of carrier-phase measurement errors due to the antenna change are determined
and stored in L1 and L2 phase maps. These phase maps provide corrections to be applied either to the observation data obtained
before the antenna change or to the observation data obtained after the antenna change. The observation corrections are able
to remove coordinate discontinuities independent of the selected coordinate estimation algorithm.

Since the assumption of all stations tracking the same satellites with identical weights was previously employed by Shen and
Xu (GPS Solut 12:99–108, 2008) to derive the simplified GNSS single- and double-differenced equivalent equations, this supplementary paper expands these
simplified equations in the case of each station tracking different satellites with elevation-dependent weights. Numerical
experiments are performed to demonstrate the computational efficiency of the simplified equivalent algorithm relative to the
traditional method in various scenarios of multi-baseline solutions with tracking different satellites. The fast computational
speed of the simplified equivalent algorithm will potentially benefit the local, regional and even global GNSS multi-baseline
solutions as well as the combined GNSS application.

Effective management of critical network infrastructure requires the assessment of potential interdiction scenarios. Optimization
approaches have been essential for identifying and evaluating such scenarios in networked systems. Although a primary function
of any network is the distribution of flow between origins and destinations, the complexity and difficulty of mathematically
abstracting interdiction impacts on connectivity or flow has been a challenge for researchers. This paper presents an optimization
approach for identifying interdiction bounds with respect to connectivity and/or flow associated with a system of origins
and destinations. Application results for telecommunications flow are presented, illustrating the capabilities of this approach.
