    Description

    This dataset part of the Geology and Planetary Mapping Winter School 2022 featuring Ingenii Basin as a study area. Ingenii Basin is located on the lunar farside centred at 33.7°S 163.5°E within the South Pole-Aitken basin. The floor of Ingenii Basin is filled with mare materials with the basin having a diameter of 282 km. We compiled a beginners – intermediate level training package for the area. The package includes the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) Wide Angle Camera (WAC) global mosaic (Speyerer et al., 2011) as a basemap, the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) and SELenological and Engineering Explorer (SELENE) Kaguya merged lunar digital elevation model (DEM) (Barker et al., 2016) and spectral data in the form of a clementine Ultraviolet/Visible (UVVIS) warped color ratio mosaic (Lucey et al., 2000). The data is cut to the area of interest and a training project is set up for QGIS. The training package is designed as a group exercise with four adjacent tiles covering the entirety of Ingenii basin. For beginners the aim is to create a low scale map of the area where the basin rim is distinguished from the basin floor and mare unit as well as detecting smaller craters that exist in the area. These units should then be put in a stratigraphic relationship based on superposition, degradation state and embayment. For intermediate mappers this task can be extended to include the swirl features and finding potential areas for crater size frequency distribution measurement to determine absolute ages for a more detailed stratigraphy.

    Description

    Kuwait's arid desert landscape, geological formations, and extreme climate conditions make it a potential site for establishing a terrestrial Mars analog, as this research presents a new GIS-based methodology. The Analog Conjunctive Method (ACM) was specifically developed to identify a suitable location in Kuwait to hold a terrestrial Mars analog using a geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing techniques. Analogs play a crucial role in simulating different Martian conditions, supporting astronaut training, testing various exploration technologies, and doing different types of scientific research on these environments. The ACM method integrates GIS and remote sensing techniques to evaluate the study area, resulting in potential sites for analog. The analysis employs two stages to finalize the best location. In stage one, the newly developed ACM is applied; it systematically eliminates unstable areas while allowing minimal flexibility for real-world environmental adjustment, particularly in regions with natural wind barriers. ACM is used to process the buffers created for the seven criteria (urban areas and farms, coastal areas, streets, airports, oil fields, natural reserves, and country borders) in QGIS to exclude unsuitable areas. Stage two screens the stage one map locations using different data (STRM, Copernicus sentinel-2, and field visits) to polish the selection based on other criteria (water bodies, dust rate, vegetation cover, and topography). The result shows nine locations in Jal Al-Zor as potential analog sites where a random location is selected for a 3D model creation to visualize the analog. Java Mission-planning and Analysis for Remote Sensing (JMARS) software was used to identify similarities between specific areas, such as the Jal Al-Zor escarpment and Huwaimllyah sand dunes in the Kuwait desert, and comparable terrains on Mars. The research concluded that Jal Al-Zor holds substantial potential as a terrestrial Mars analog site due to its geological and topographical similarities to Martian landscapes. This makes it an ideal location for crew training, Mars equipment testing, and further research in Mars analog studies, providing valuable insights for future planetary exploration.

    Description

    Today, deep neural networks are widely used in many computer vision problems, also for geographic information systems (GIS) data. This type of data is commonly used for urban analyzes and spatial planning. We used orthophotographic images of two residential districts from Kielce, Poland for research including urban sprawl automatic analysis with Transformer-based neural network application.Orthophotomaps were obtained from Kielce GIS portal. Then, the map was manually masked into building and building surroundings classes. Finally, the ortophotomap and corresponding classification mask were simultaneously divided into small tiles. This approach is common in image data preprocessing for machine learning algorithms learning phase. Data contains two original orthophotomaps from Wietrznia and Pod Telegrafem residential districts with corresponding masks and also their tiled version, ready to provide as a training data for machine learning models.Transformed-based neural network has undergone a training process on the Wietrznia dataset, targeted for semantic segmentation of the tiles into buildings and surroundings classes. After that, inference of the models was used to test model's generalization ability on the Pod Telegrafem dataset. The efficiency of the model was satisfying, so it can be used in automatic semantic building segmentation. Then, the process of dividing the images can be reversed and complete classification mask retrieved. This mask can be used for area of the buildings calculations and urban sprawl monitoring, if the research would be repeated for GIS data from wider time horizon.Since the dataset was collected from Kielce GIS portal, as the part of the Polish Main Office of Geodesy and Cartography data resource, it may be used only for non-profit and non-commertial purposes, in private or scientific applications, under the law "Ustawa z dnia 4 lutego 1994 r. o prawie autorskim i prawach pokrewnych (Dz.U. z 2006 r. nr 90 poz 631 z późn. zm.)".

Kielce Geoportal offers a .pst recent map from April 2019. It is an orthophotomap with a resolution of 5 x 5 pixels, constructed from a plane flight at 700 meters over ground height, taken with a camera for vertical photos. Downloading was done by WMS in open-source QGIS software (https://www.qgis.org), as a 1:500 scale map, then converted to a 1200 dpi PNG image.Secondly, the map from Wietrznia residential district was manually labelled, also in QGIS, in the same scope, as the orthophotomap. Annotation based on land cover map information was also obtained from Kielce Geoportal. There are two classes - residential building and surrounding. Second map, from Pod Telegrafem district was not annotated, since it was used in the testing phase and imitates situation, where there is no annotation for the new data presented to the model.Next, the images was converted to an RGB JPG images, and the annotation map was converted to 8-bit GRAY PNG image.Finally, Wietrznia data files were tiled to 512 x 512 pixels tiles, in Python PIL library. Tiles with no information or a relatively small amount of information (only white background or mostly white background) were manually removed. So, from the 29113 x 15938 pixels orthophotomap, only 810 tiles with corresponding annotations were left, ready to train the machine learning model for the semantic segmentation task. Pod Telegrafem orthophotomap was tiled with no manual removing, so from the 7168 x 7168 pixels ortophotomap were created 197 tiles with 256 x 256 pixels resolution. There was also image of one residential building, used for model's validation during training phase, it was not the part of the training data, but was a part of Wietrznia residential area. It was 2048 x 2048 pixel ortophotomap, tiled to 16 tiles 256 x 265 pixels each.

    Description

    This resource contains data inputs and a Jupyter Notebook that is used to introduce Hydrologic Analysis using Terrain Analysis Using Digital Elevation Models (TauDEM) and Python. TauDEM is a free and open-source set of Digital Elevation Model (DEM) tools developed at Utah State University for the extraction and analysis of hydrologic information from topography. This resource is part of a HydroLearn Physical Hydrology learning module available at https://edx.hydrolearn.org/courses/course-v1:Utah_State_University+CEE6400+2019_Fall/about

    In this activity, the student learns how to (1) derive hydrologically useful information from Digital Elevation Models (DEMs); (2) describe the sequence of steps involved in mapping stream networks, catchments, and watersheds; and (3) compute an approximate water balance for a watershed-based on publicly available data.

    Please note that this exercise is designed for the Logan River watershed, which drains to USGS streamflow gauge 10109000 located just east of Logan, Utah. However, this Jupyter Notebook and the analysis can readily be applied to other locations of interest. If running the terrain analysis for other study sites, you need to prepare a DEM TIF file, an outlet shapefile for the area of interest, and the average annual streamflow and precipitation data. - There are several sources to obtain DEM data. In the U.S., the DEM data (with different spatial resolutions) can be obtained from the National Elevation Dataset available from the national map (http://viewer.nationalmap.gov/viewer/). Another DEM data source is the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (https://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/), an international research effort that obtained digital elevation models on a near-global scale (search for Digital Elevation at https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eros/science/usgs-eros-archive-products-overview?qt-science_center_objects=0#qt-science_center_objects). - If not already available, you can generate the outlet shapefile by applying basic terrain analysis steps in geospatial information system models such as ArcGIS or QGIS. - You also need to obtain average annual streamflow and precipitation data for the watershed of interest to assess the annual water balance and calculate the runoff ratio in this exercise. In the U.S., the streamflow data can be obtained from the USGS NWIS website (https://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis) and the precipitation from PRISM (https://prism.oregonstate.edu/normals/). Note that using other datasets may require preprocessing steps to make data ready to use for this exercise.

    Description

    Intellectual property of A Song of Ice and Fire, this map and all locations copyright George RR Martin (www.georgerrmartin.com).

    Map of Westeros (original version) created originally by Tear of the Cartographer's Guild (http://www.cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?t=6683), updated and extended by theMountainGoat (http://www.sermountaingoat.co.uk/map/index.php) in 2012: Updates to Westeros, addition of Essos, Sothoryos, Ibben and the Summer Isles based in part upon the speculative world map drawn by Werthead (www.thewertzone.blogspot.com). Some locations positioned according to the maps drawn by Other-in-Law.

    These GIS-map-files are based on this work and are created by cadaei in QGIS 2.8.

    The scale is of course not exact, as it is not clear what projection the original map used and on what kind of planet the map is located. I placed the continents roughly on the place of the coordinates of Africa to minimize the distortion near the poles. The scale is slightly too small (the Wall is only 240 miles long), so don't use the map for distance measuring. It's thought to provide the vector-geometry and labels of the world of a Song of Ice and Fire.

    Locations have a field 'confirmed' which is '1' for confirmed locations and '0' for locations with speculative location.

    The Areas outside the polygons of the file officialMapAreas.shp are the parts of the map which are not official and based on assumptions (see http://www.sermountaingoat.co.uk/map/index.php for more info about how theMountainGoat created these areas) and can be outdated.

Oct 28, 2019
Description

Have you ever wanted to create your own maps, or integrate and visualize spatial datasets to examine changes in trends between locations and over time? Follow along with these training tutorials on QGIS, an open source geographic information system (GIS) and learn key concepts, procedures and skills for performing common GIS tasks – such as creating maps, as well as joining, overlaying and visualizing spatial datasets. These tutorials are geared towards new GIS users. We’ll start with foundational concepts, and build towards more advanced topics throughout – demonstrating how with a few relatively easy steps you can get quite a lot out of GIS. You can then extend these skills to datasets of thematic relevance to you in addressing tasks faced in your day-to-day work. Each tutorial video is also accompanied by a written script, providing a step-by-step reference that users can follow alongside the video or consult afterwards.
