Quantification of the suitable rooftop area for solar panel installation from overhead imagery using Convolutional Neural Networks

Roberto Castello, Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Alina Ursula Rosa Walch, Shasha Jiang, Riccardo Cadei

The integration of solar technology in the built environment is realized mainly through rooftop-installed panels. In this paper, we leverage state-of-the-art Machine Learning and computer vision techniques applied on overhead images to provide a geo-locali ...

Identification of snowfall microphysical processes from Eulerian vertical gradients of polarimetric radar variables

Alexis Berne, Josué Etienne Gehring, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon, Noémie Planat

Polarimetric radar systems are commonly used to study the microphysics of precipitation. While they offer continuous measurements with a large spatial coverage, retrieving information about the microphysical processes that govern the evolution of snowfall ...

National assessment of cultural ecosystem services: Participatory mapping in Switzerland

Jérôme Chenal, Stéphanie Aline Hasler, Rémi Jaligot

Previous studies assessed cultural ecosystem services (CES) at the local scale but often ignored them in national assessments. This paper explores CES relationships in Switzerland using web-based participatory mapping. We identified the spatial relationshi ...

Efficient Query Processing for Spatial and Temporal Data Exploration

Eleni Tzirita Zacharatou

Core to many scientific and analytics applications are spatial data capturing the position or shape of objects in space, and time series recording the values of a process over time. Effective analysis of such data requires a shift from confirmatory pipelin ...

Time- and Space-Efficient Spatial Data Analytics

Mirjana Pavlovic

Advances in data acquisition technologies and supercomputing for large-scale simulations have led to an exponential growth in the volume of spatial data. This growth is accompanied by an increase in data complexity, such as spatial density, but also by mor ...

Urbaniser la campagne : la Chine, entre croissance massive et réalité du territoire

Marlène Audrey Bertille Leroux

The primary goal of this research is to undertake an analytical study addressing the urbanisation of rural areas as a major territorial, environmental and cultural challenge. The new relations that have developed between urban and rural areas clearly signa ...

Sensitivity of Alpine3D modeled snow cover to modifications in DEM resolution, station coverage and meteorological input quantities

Michael Lehning, Mathias Thierry Pierre Bavay, Sebastian Schlögl

This study presents a comprehensive sensitivity and uncertainty assessment of important input parameters on the Alpine3D modeled snow water equivalent (SWE) for two different alpine catchments. Horizontal resolution of the DEM grid, station coverage and se ...

Total-activation regularized deconvolution of resting-state fMRI leads to reproducible networks with spatial overlap

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Fikret Isik Karahanoglu

Spontaneous activations in resting-state fMRI have been shown to corroborate recurrent intrinsic functional networks. Recent studies have explored integration of brain function in terms of spatially overlapping networks. We have proposed a method to recove ...

TRANSFORMERS: Robust Spatial Joins on Non-Uniform Data Distributions

Anastasia Ailamaki, Thomas Heinis, Farhan Tauheed, Mirjana Pavlovic

Spatial joins are becoming increasingly ubiquitous in many applications, particularly in the scientific domain. While several approaches have been proposed for joining spatial datasets, each of them has a strength for a particular type of density ratio amo ...

Configuring Spatial Grids for Efficient Main Memory Joins

Anastasia Ailamaki, Thomas Heinis, Farhan Tauheed

The performance of spatial joins is becoming increasingly important in many applications, particularly in the scientific domain. Several approaches have been proposed for joining spatial datasets on disk and few in main memory. Recent results show that in ...
