It is a simple non-parametric neighbor-based smoothing function that relies on few assumptions about the structure of the observed data. It has been used in ecology to identify hotspots, that is, areas of relatively high biomass/abundance, and in 2010 was used by Fisheries and Oceans Canada to delineate significant concentrations of corals and sponges. The same approach has been used successfully in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO) Regulatory Area. Here, we update the previous analyses with the catch records from up to 5 additional years of trawl survey data from Eastern Canada, including the Gulf of St. Lawrence. We applied kernel density estimation to create a modelled biomass surface for each of sponges, small and large gorgonian corals, and sea pens, and applied an aerial expansion method to identify significant concentrations of theses taxa. We compared our results to those obtained previously and provided maps of significant concentrations as well as point data co-ordinates for catches above the threshold values used to construct the significant area polygons. The borders of the polygons can be refined using knowledge of null catches and species distribution models of species presence/absence and/or biomass." (DOI: 10.17632/dtk86rjm86.2)

Research activity and published literature on the reliability and vulnerability analysis of urban areas for disaster management has grown tremendously in the recent past. Population information has played the most important role during the entire disaster management process. In this article, population information was used as the evaluation criterion, and a fuzzy multiple-attribute decision-making (MADM) approach was used to support a vulnerability analysis of the Helsinki area for disaster management. A kernel density map was produced as a result that showed the vulnerable spatial locations in the event of a disaster. Model results were first validated against the original population information kernel density maps. In the second step, the model was validated by using fuzzy set accuracy assessment and the actual domain knowledge of the rescue experts. This is a novel approach to validation, which makes it possible to see how and if computer decision-making models compare to a real decision-making process in disaster management. The validation results showed that the fuzzy model has produced a reasonably accurate result. By using fuzzy modelling, the number of vulnerable areas was reduced to a reasonable scale and compares to the actual human assessment of these areas, which allows resources to be optimised during the rescue planning and operation.

The Kernel Density tool calculates the density of features in a neighborhood around those features.Kernel Density calculates the density of point features around each output raster cell. Conceptually, a smoothly curved surface is fitted over each point. The surface value is highest at the location of the point and diminishes with increasing distance from the point, reaching zero at the Search radius distance from the point. Only a circular neighborhood is possible. The volume under the surface equals the Population field value for the point, or 1 if NONE is specified. The density at each output raster cell is calculated by adding the values of all the kernel surfaces where they overlay the raster cell center. This layer is included in a storymap about the Panama City crayfish, a species listed as Threatened under the Endangered Species Act in 2022.

Because space-use patterns are a key aspect of the ecology and distribution of species, identifying factors associated with variation in size of territories and home ranges has been central to studies on population ecology. Space use might vary in response to extrinsic factors like habitat quality and to intrinsic factors like physical condition and individual behavior (aggressiveness). However, the role of these factors has been poorly documented in the tropics, particularly in high-elevation bird species. We report the home-range size of a Neotropical Andean bird, the Grey-browed Brush finch (Arremon assimilis), and evaluate the role of physical condition in explaining variation in home-range size among individuals. We performed spot mapping to estimate the home ranges of 14 territorial males in Bogotá, Colombia, using minimum convex polygons (MCP) and 95% kernel density estimators (KDE). The mean home-range size estimated for the 100% MCP was 0.522 ± 0.305 ha (range = 0.15-1.18 ha), ...

IntroductionPopulation longevity is a global phenomenon influenced by various factors including social, economic transitions, and medical advancements. The study focused on the population over 95 years old, adopting an approach that integrates data from the 2018 Census and geospatial analysis techniques.MethodsAn ecological study was conducted using anonymized microdata from the 2018 National Population and Housing Census (CNPV). Geographic analysis, choropleth maps, and Kernel density estimation were employed to identify clusters of individuals aged over 95 years.ResultsThe study identified 43,427 individuals aged 95 years or older in Colombia, with concentrations observed in departments such as Antioquia and Bogotá. Analysis by department and municipality revealed variations in rates and sex distribution. Kernel density analysis highlighted clusters in the Valle de Tenza area and other regions.ConclusionThis study sheds light on the geographical distribution of centenarians in Colombia, emphasizing clusters in certain regions. More research is needed to understand the individual and contextual factors underlying successful aging in Colombia and to inform policies to improve the quality of life of older populations.

The allocation of medical resources is usually inappropriate in China because it is mainly based on the population of each administrative area. In real life, individual patients make choices based on numerous other factors, such as the quality of medical service, the service capacity of certain hospitals and their own income level. This study aims to reveal the differences between theoretical medical resource allocation and the actual medical treatment choices of liver cancer patients in Shenzhen, China, based on case data from 2010 to 2012. Two categories with six group maps are used to illustrate this situation, including independent charts and analytical method-based thematic maps. Meaningful conclusions are then proposed to improve medical resource allocation.

An Economic and Spatial Baseline of Coastal Recreation in the South Coast of California. OceanSpaces.org. Retrieved May 2018).These data are a Kernel Density layers produced using ArcGIS. The Kernel analysis is a nonparametric statistical method for estimating probability densities from a set of points. Conceptually, a smooth raster surface is fitted over each point. The surface value is highest at the location of the point and diminishes with increasing distance (i.e.search radius), eventually reaching zero. A default value is calculated by the analysis tool for the search radius based on the input data; increasing the radius has little affect on the density value. Although more points will fall inside a larger search radius the number will be divided by a larger area when calculating density resulting in a more generalized output raster. The volume under the surface equals the weighted value for the point. The weights were created by Knowledge Networks and applied to the points based on demographics. The density of the output raster is calculated by adding the values of all the individual surfaces where they overlap. The point's weighted value determines the number of times to count the point. For example, a weighted value of 1.5 would cause the point to be counted one and half times. The resulting dataset is a smooth raster surface depicting the intensity use or density of an activity. Based on previous experience and after conducting some tests, all of the activity datasets were given a search radius of one mile. In discussing a similar project with the Oregon Department of Parks and Recreation we discovered that most visitors to the coast stay within a mile of their activity location. This distance also proved to be a good match to the mapped activities.

Expert-derived range maps are used extensively in macroecological and biogeographic analyses, yet they are subjective, taxonomically biased, and inconsistent in their treatment of species’ absences. We developed a reproducible, data-driven approach to estimate species’ extent of occurrence (EOO) using presence-only data and subregions of the Interim Biogeographic regionalization for Australia (IBRA). This approach employs a Gaussian kernel density estimator calibrated for spatial coherence and ecological realism, producing maps independent of arbitrary grid structures. We applied it to 610 Australian bird species and evaluated the concordance of our data-driven EOO maps against BirdLife International expert-derived range maps. The spatial association between these two map sources, measured on a 0-1 scale, ranged from near-zero to 0.93 across species, with higher concordance among terrestrial birds. Estimates of richness using both map sources varied most at the finest spatial scale (IBRA subregions), whit mean, and root mean square errors at the coarsest biogeographic scale (ecoregion) being 1/3 lower than those at the subregional scale. Likewise, we demonstrated the approach’s applicability across taxa by generating data-driven EOO maps for selected amphibians, mammals, reptiles, and vascular plants. Like for birds, discontinuities in the distribution of these non-avian species represented different subpopulations over Australia. Our approach minimizes the influence of sampling bias and internal discontinuities in the estimation of species’ EOO, while allowing for range edge refinement and subpopulation delineation. It provides an objective and scalable alternative to expert-derived range maps, well suited for large-scale ecological research requiring consistency in spatial precision. Given the plethora of biogeographic templates already in use, our approach is adaptable to many contexts; and thus, can readily support a better understanding and conservation of biodiversity at large spatial scales.
