基于GeoEye-1与HJ-1B的仿真底图最佳分辨率的选择

随着遥感图像的广泛应用,图像仿真的意义日益凸显,仿真底图的选择越来越重要。以广西省北海市沙田半岛作为研究区,将Geo Eye-1 0.5,2 m和HJ-1B CCD1 30 m遥感影像作为仿真底图,升尺度到30 m分辨率后得到仿真影像,选取7种具有代表性的地物样区,通过选取评价指标,对仿真影像与原影像HJ-1B CCD1 30 m的图像质量的差异进行分析。其中由于Geo Eye-1与HJ-1B CCD1影像的成像参数不同,对最终的图像质量评价造成影响,对其进行归一化处理,并与遥感影像实际应用中的问题相结合,得出最佳分辨率的结果。     

Integrating Sketch Maps with GIS to Explore Fear of Crime in the Urban Environment: A Review of the Past and Prospects for the Future

Understanding the spatial dimension of fear of crime in the urban environment is important to understanding behaviors in response to this concern. Making this connection between perception and action has long been a goal of scholars in the social and health sciences, though this complex relationship has yet to be fully elucidated. Specifically, in studies on fear of crime and its influence on behavior, a variety of definitions and methods have been employed. This situation has yielded insights, as well as inconsistencies. In the past decade, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) has been added to this methodological mix, though it too has contributed limited understanding of the environmental perception-behavior nexus. During this time, some scholars have integrated a traditional technique for accessing environmental perception, the sketch map, with this newer technology. This article provides a review and critical assessment of the way GIS has been used to understand fear of crime, specifically through the integration of sketch maps. This focus is framed by an overview of substantive and methodological concerns and concludes with a discussion of continued research needs. As behavioral responses to fear of crime are acknowledged to impact physical and mental health and overall well-being, in addition to the viability of neighborhoods, research in this area will continue apace. However, for integration of sketch maps in GIS to be a valuable methodological contributor to this line of inquiry, users of the approach must understand its complexities. This article outlines these issues so that they may be considered in future research and may improve the ability for this approach to yield new understanding of fear of crime.
