The river inflow in a natural lake with important suspended sediment load during floods, can impact water quality by mobilizing dissolved matters like phosphorous from deep to surface waters. Generally due to thermal stratification in prealpine lakes, the ...
In \cite{martinelli_2004_open_challenges_in}, a version of Relative Map Filter (\RMF) is proposed to solve the simultaneous localization and map building (SLAM) problem. In the \RMF, the map states contain only quantities invariant under shift and rotat ...
This thesis inquires how map annotations can be used to sustain remote collaboration. Maps condense the interplay of space and communication, solving linguistic references by linking conversational content to the actual places to which it refers. This is a ...
In the world of video especially in video processing important steps are being taken at this time. Research projects around the world are tackling all kind of tracking problems and segmentation of video images. Others are doing feature extraction, image en ...
We quantified the vertical and horizontal variation of chlorophyll a (Chl-a) to test how benthic filter feeders (dreissenid mussels), rooted macrophytes, and hydrodynamics influence phytoplankton distributions in a large lake (Lake Simcoe, Canada). Water c ...
An improved understanding of surface transport processes is necessary to predict sediment, pollutant and phytoplankton patterns in large lakes. Lake surface water temperature (LSWT) which may spatially and temporarily vary over the lake surface reflects me ...
Lakes with a surface area of less than 10 km^2 account for over 50% of the global cumulative lake surface water area, and make up more than 99% of the total number of global lakes, ponds, and wetlands. Within the boreal regions as well as some temperate an ...
Robotic systems that can create and use visual maps in realtime have obvious advantages in many applications, from automatic driving to mobile manipulation in the home. In this paper we describe a mapping system based on retaining views of the environment ...
A vital task in sports video annotation is to detect and segment areas of the playfield. This is an important first step in player or ball tracking and detecting the location of the play on the playfield. In this paper we present a technique using statisti ...
The recurring challenge facing anyone who tries to localize realities in order to show their spatial relations on a map is the systematic impermanence of any objectivized space. Thus any space used as a base layer in thematic maps must be thought of as the ...
