线要素多尺度表达的一种新方法

本文依据多比例尺条件下矢量数据的绘制原理,提出了多尺度线化简与线选取方法。多尺度线化简算法依比例尺将空间坐标转换为像素坐标,根据像素坐标删除曲线中重合点与共线点,综合后的曲线与原始曲线在各比例尺下绘制结果相同;多尺度线选取算法利用仿射变换结果快速计算线要素之间的连通关系,然后渐进删除长度小于阈值的悬线与孤立弧段,保持了线要素的连通性。对不同类型数据的实验验证了本文算法的有效性和可行性。     

智能化专题地图快速设计制作研究

本文根据专题地图智能化快速设计制作的需求,提出以构建专题地图智能化设计知识库为驱动实现专题地图快速设计制作的模式。在分析其他领域知识和知识库概念的基础上,兼顾该领域的特点,对此模式中知识和知识库的概念重新进行界定。文中以河南省交通图设计为例,基于混合式表示法和此模式下知识库的新特性,构建了专题地图设计知识库的框架体系并进行了阐述。     

On Methods of Teaching Geography

This study investigates the location and varying spatiality of questions in geography textbooks. The results show that study questions posed in page margins address the three components of spatial thinking—concepts of space, using tools of representation, and processes of reasoning—more than questions in other locations within the text. Three practices are particularly recommended to help students develop spatial thinking skills through answering textbook questions: (1) utilize page-margin questions; (2) select questions around spatial representations; and (3) focus on higher-level cognitive processes.     

Finding the Southern Part of Cyberspace: Using the Internet to Teach the South

Abstract

This article suggests how teachers can approach the Internet conceptually and use it practically as they teach about the American South. Because of its information, communication, and cultural dimensions, the Internet represents a “place” where students and teachers can appraise the South from multiple, alternative perspectives. The article offers lesson strategies and resources for both on-computer and off-computer classroom settings. By finding the southern part of cyberspace, the authors illustrate that regions can and do have a place in a medium often represented as spaceless and devoid of geographic boundaries.     

An Evaluation of University World Geography Textbook Questions for Components of Spatial Thinking

ABSTRACT

Geography textbooks contain chapter or review questions that may engage students in spatial thinking. This research used Jo and Bednarz’s (2009) Taxonomy of Spatial Thinking to evaluate the percentage of spatial thinking questions in four university-level world geography course textbooks. The results from this study were then compared to the findings in Jo and Bednarz’s (2009) analysis of high school geography textbooks. Thirty-five percent of university level textbook questions are related to spatial thinking compared to twenty-four percent in high school geography textbooks. The results provide information useful to stakeholders, such as teachers, administrators, and textbook writers and may help these stakeholders to consciously incorporate the three components of spatial thinking as defined by the National Research Council (2006). A simplified taxonomy for identifying spatial-thinking concepts in textbook review questions is also suggested.     

Use of Business-Naming Practices to Delineate Vernacular Regions: A Michigan Example

This article provides a history of efforts to map vernacular regions as context for offering readers a way of using business directories in order to construct a GIS-based map of vernacular regions. With Michigan as a case study, the article discusses regional-naming conventions, boundaries, and inclusions and omissions of areas from regional labels in order to offer educators ideas that can enhance classroom content on regions. This article concludes by providing suggestions for classroom activities collecting, analyzing, and discussing vernacular region patterns and processes in accordance with National Geography Standard Five at the eighth-grade level.     

过完备字典稀疏表示的云图超分辨率算法

提出一种基于过完备字典稀疏表示的云图超分辨率算法。首先,联合训练针对低分辨率与高分辨率云图块的两个字典Dl和Dh,保证对应的低分辨率与高分辨率云图块关于各自的字典具有相似的稀疏表示;其次,通过求解优化问题,获得待处理云图每个低分辨率云图块关于Dl的稀疏表示,并将表示系数用于Dh以生成对应的高分辨率云图块;最后,运用最速下降算法,得到满足重构约束的高分辨率云图。红外与可见光云图的数值实验验证了本文算法的有效性,表明本文算法在视觉效果及PSNR指标上均优于插值方法。

居民城市公共安全感知与社区环境——基于北京大规模调查问卷的分析

新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情的爆发使得民众对公共安全问题的关注到了前所未有的程度,社区作为社会治理基本单元,在防疫减灾中所发挥的作用尤为突出。本文基于北京2019年城市体检问卷调查数据,采用多层线性模型检验个体属性及社区环境指标对公共安全感知的影响。研究发现,公共安全感知的差异主要来自个体属性的不同,老年人及健康状况一般或较差的群体,以及低收入、低学历、待业人群的安全感相对较低;安全感的社区差异显著,人口稠密、公交线路密集的社区居民安全感较低,道路交叉口较多的社区安全感较高;社区离Ⅰ型应急避难设施和医院的距离越近,居民安全感越高,但中小型设施影响不显著;良好的社区社会环境对居民安全感具有非常明显的正向影响,但租户很难从物业管理水平的提高中获益。据此本文提出了建设安全韧性社区的若干建议。     

中国城镇化对老年人健康的影响

基于2010年第六次全国人口普查微观数据和夜间灯光数据等,运用多层级logistic回归模型估计中国城镇化水平和速度与老年人自评健康的关联,分析城镇化健康效应在不同老年人群体间的差异,并运用倾向得分匹配方法,控制“自选择”机制对分析结果的干扰。结果表明：1）中国县区城镇化水平和速度与老年人自评健康呈显著正相关关系,居住于城镇化水平中等和城镇化速度较快县区的老年人更可能自评为健康;2）城镇化水平和速度与老年人自评健康的关系在不同受教育程度和户口状态的老年人群体间存在显著差异,城镇化水平和速度对受教育程度较低、持有本地户口老年人健康水平的提升效益更大;3）控制了老年人居住“自选择”的干扰后,县区城镇化水平和速度与老年人自评健康的正向关联依然稳健,表明“自选择偏误”对中国县区城镇化水平和速度与老年人自评健康的关系没有显著的影响。
