Increasing popularity of social networks made them a viable data source for many data mining applications and event detection is no exception. Researchers aim not only to find events that happen in networks but more importantly to identify and locate events occurring in the real world.In this paper, we propose an enhanced version of quadtree - convolutional quadtree (ConvTree) - and demonstrate its advantage compared to the standard quadtree. We also introduce the algorithm for searching events of different scales using geospatial data obtained from social networks. The algorithm is based on statistical analysis of historical data, generation of ConvTrees representing the normal state of the city and anomalies evaluation for events detection.Experimental study conducted on the dataset of 60 million geotagged Instagram posts in the New York City area demonstrates that the proposed approach is able to find a wide range of events from very local (indie band concert or wedding party) to city (baseball game or holiday march) and even country scale (political protest or Christmas) events. This opens up a perspective of building simple and fast yet powerful system for real-time multiscale events monitoring.

Travel regions are not necessarily defined by political or administrative boundaries. For example, in the Schengen region of Europe, tourists can travel freely across borders irrespective of national borders. Identifying transboundary travel regions is an interesting problem which we aim to solve using mobility analysis of Twitter users. Our proposed solution comprises collecting geotagged tweets, combining them into trajectories and, thus, mining thousands of trips undertaken by twitter users. After aggregating these trips into a mobility graph, we apply a community detection algorithm to find coherent regions throughout the world. The discovered regions provide insights into international travel and can reveal both domestic and transnational travel regions.

These geospatial files are the essential components for the Geologic Map of the Stibnite Mining Area in Valley County, Idaho, which was published by the Idaho Geological Survey in 2022. Three main file types are in this dataset: geographic, geologic, and mining. Geographic files are map extent, lidar base, topographic contours, labels for contours, waterways, and roads. Geologic files are geologic map units, faults, structural lines meaning axial traces, structural points like bedding strike and dip locations, cross section lines, and drill core sample locations. Lastly, mining files are disturbed ground features including open pit polygons or outlines, and general mining features such as the location of an adit. File formats are shape, layer, or raster. Of the 14 shapefiles, 7 have layer files that provide pre-set symbolization for use in ESRI ArcMap that match up with the Geologic Map of the Stibnite Mining Area in Valley County, Idaho. The lidar data have two similar, but distinct, raster format types (ESRI GRID and TIFF) intended to increase end user accessibility. This dataset is a compilation of both legacy data (from Smitherman’s 1985 masters thesis published in 1988, Midas Gold Corporation employees, the Geologic Map of the Stibnite Quadrangle (Stewart and others, 2016) and Reed S. Lewis of the Idaho Geological Survey) and new data from 2013, 2015, and 2016 field work by Niki E. Wintzer.

This repository contains two datasets:

1. An update of metadata analysis with data published before 2021 resulting from the search equation "TS = (Technosol* AND (Organic carbon OR Organic matter)" in the Web of Science (WOS) database. Update from Allory 2022: https://doi.org/10.24396/ORDAR-60.

2. A database containing geospatial datasets (inputs and outputs), R scripts, and other FOSS software files used for the geospatial analysis of land reclamation potential through Technosols in Brazil.

Land cover is the visible, biophysical cover on the Earth’s surface including trees, shrubs, grasses, soils, exposed rocks and water bodies, as well as anthropogenic elements such as plantations, crops and built environments. Land cover changes for many reasons, including seasonal weather, severe weather events such as cyclones, floods and fires, and human activities such as mining, agriculture and urbanisation. Remote sensing data recorded over a period of time allows the observation of land cover dynamics. Classifying these responses provides a robust and repeatable way of characterising land cover types. These complement on ground survey where available.

Spatially continuous data of environmental variables is often required for marine conservation and management. However, information for environmental variables is usually collected by point sampling, particularly for the deep ocean. Thus, methods generating such spatially continuous data by using point samples to estimate values for unknown locations become essential tools. Such methods are, however, often data- or even variable- specific and it is difficult to select an appropriate method for any given dataset. In this study, 14 methods (37 sub-methods) are compared using samples of mud content with five levels of sample density across the southwest Australian margin. Bathymetry, distance to coast, and slope were used as secondary variables. Ten-fold cross validation with relative mean absolute error (RMAE) and visual examination were used to assess the performance of these methods. A total of 1,850 prediction datasets were produced and used to assess the performance of the methods. Considering both the accuracy and the visual examination, we found that a combined method, random forest and ordinary kriging (RKrf), is the most robust method. No threshold in sample density was detected in relation to prediction accuracy. No consistent patterns were observed between the performance of the methods and data variation. The RMAE of three most accurate methods is about 30% lower than that of the best methods in previous publications, highlighting the robustness of the methods selected in this study. The limitations of this study were discussed and a number of suggestions were provided for further studies.

Mineral Land Classification studies are produced by the State Geologist as specified by the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act (SMARA, PRC 2710 et seq.) of 1975. To address mineral resource conservation, SMARA mandated a two-phase process called classification-designation. Classification is carried out by the State Geologist and designation is a function of the State Mining and Geology Board. The classification studies contained here evaluate the mineral resources and present this information in the form of Mineral Resource Zones. The objective of the classification-designation process is to ensure, through appropriate local lead agency policies and procedures, that mineral materials will be available when needed and do not become inaccessible as a result of inadequate information during the land-use decision-making process.
