Market Dynamics of Digital Maps:

Key drivers of the Digital Maps Market

Mobile Computing Devices Are Increasingly Used for Navigation leading to market expansion-

Since technology is changing rapidly, two categories of mobile computing devices—tablets and smartphones—are developing and becoming more diverse. One of the newest features accessible in this category is map software, which is now frequently preinstalled on smartphones. Meitrack Group launched the MD500S, a four-channel AI mobile DVR, for the first time in 2022. The MD500S is a 4-channel MDVR with excellent stability that supports DMS, GNSS tracking, video recording, and ADAS. Source- https://www.meitrack.com/ai-mobile-dvr/#:~:text=Mini%204CH%20AI%20Mobile%20DVR,surveillance%20solutions%20that%20uses%20H.

It's no secret that people who own smartphones routinely use built-in mapping apps to find directions and other driving assistance. Furthermore, these individuals use georeferenced data from GPS and GIS apps to find nearby establishments such as cafes, movie theatres, and other sites of interest. Mobile computing devices are now commonly used to acquire accurate 3D spatial information. A personal digital assistant (PDA) is a software agent that uses information from the user's computer, location, and various web sources to accomplish tasks or offer services. Thus, mobile computing devices are increasingly used for navigation leading to market expansion.

The usage of geographic data has increased leading to market expansion-

Since it is used in so many different industries and businesses—including risk and emergency management, infrastructure management, marketing, urban planning, resource management (oil, gas, mining, and other resources), business planning, logistics, and more—geospatial information has seen a boom in recent years. Since location is one of the essential components of context, geo-information also serves as a basis for applications in the future. For example, Atos SE provides services to companies in supply chain management, data centers, infrastructure development, urban planning, risk and emergency management, navigation, and healthcare by utilizing geographic information system (GIS) platforms with location-based services (LBS).

Furthermore, augmented reality-based technologies make use of 3D platforms and GIS data to offer virtual information about people and their environment. Businesses can offer users customized ads by using this information to better understand their needs.Thus, the usage of geographic data has increased leading to market expansion.

Thank you for your interest in DWR land use datasets.

The California Department of Water Resources (DWR) has been collecting land use data throughout the state and using it to develop agricultural water use estimates for statewide and regional planning purposes, including water use projections, water use efficiency evaluations, groundwater model developments, climate change mitigation and adaptations, and water transfers. These data are essential for regional analysis and decision making, which has become increasingly important as DWR and other state agencies seek to address resource management issues, regulatory compliances, environmental impacts, ecosystem services, urban and economic development, and other issues. Increased availability of digital satellite imagery, aerial photography, and new analytical tools make remote sensing-based land use surveys possible at a field scale that is comparable to that of DWR’s historical on the ground field surveys. Current technologies allow accurate large-scale crop and land use identifications to be performed at desired time increments and make possible more frequent and comprehensive statewide land use information. Responding to this need, DWR sought expertise and support for identifying crop types and other land uses and quantifying crop acreages statewide using remotely sensed imagery and associated analytical techniques. Currently, Statewide Crop Maps are available for the Water Years 2014, 2016, 2018- 2022 and PROVISIONALLY for 2023.

Abstract

MEJ aims to create easy-to-use, publicly-available maps that paint a holistic picture of intersecting environmental, social, and health impacts experienced by communities across the US.

With guidance from the residents of impacted communities, MEJ combines environmental, public health, and demographic data into an indicator of vulnerability for communities in every state. MEJ’s goal is to fill an existing data gap for individual states without environmental justice mapping tools, and to provide a valuable tool for advocates, scholars, students, lawyers, and policy makers.

Methodology

The negative effects of pollution depend on a combination of vulnerability and exposure. People living in poverty, for example, are more likely to develop asthma or die due to air pollution. The method MEJ uses, following the method developed for CalEnviroScreen, reflects this in the two overall components of a census tract’s final “Cumulative EJ Impact”: population characteristics and pollution burden. The CalEnviroScreen methodology was developed through an intensive, multi-year effort to develop a science-backed, peer-reviewed tool to assess environmental justice in a holistic way, and has since been replicated by several other states.

CalEnviroScreen Methodology:

• Population characteristics are a combination of socioeconomic data (often referred to as the social determinants of health) and health data that together reflect a populations' vulnerability to pollutants. Pollution burden is a combination of direct exposure to a pollutant and environmental effects, which are adverse environmental conditions caused by pollutants, such as toxic waste sites or wastewater releases. Together, population characteristics and pollution burden help describe the disproportionate impact that environmental pollution has on different communities.

• Every indicator is ranked as a percentile from 0 to 100 and averaged with the others of the same component to form an overall score for that component. Each component score is then percentile ranked to create a component percentile. The Sensitive Populations component score, for example, is the average of a census tract’s Asthma, Low Birthweight Infants, and Heart Disease indicator percentiles, and the Sensitive Populations component percentile is the percentile rank of the Sensitive Populations score.

• The Population Characteristics score is the average of the Sensitive Populations component score and the Socioeconomic Factors component score. The Population Characteristics percentile is the percentile rank of the Population Characteristics score.

• The Pollution Burden score is the average of the Pollution Exposure component score and one half of the Environmental Effects component score (Environmental Effects may have a smaller effect on health outcomes than the indicators included the Exposures component so are weighted half as much as Exposures). The Pollution Burden percentile is the percentile rank of the Pollution Burden score.

• The Populaton Characteristics and Pollution Burden scores are then multiplied to find the final Cumulative EJ Impact score for a census tract, and then this final score is percentile-ranked to find a census tract's final Cumulative EJ Impact percentile.

• Census tracts with no population aren't given a Population Characteristics score.

• Census tracts with an indicator score of zero are assigned a percentile rank of zero. Percentile rank is then only calculated for those census tracts with a score above zero.

• Census tracts that are missing data for more than two indicators don't receive a final Cumulative EJ Impact ranking.

This service displays a complete state-wide digital land use map of Queensland. It is based on the Queensland Land Use Mapping Program (QLUMP) data product produced by the Queensland Government. The service presents the most recent mapping of land use features for Queensland. The service is cached to the standard Google / Bing Maps scale levels from 1:591,657,551 to 1:9,028.

This dataset represents a compilation of data from various government agencies throughout the City of New York. The underlying geography is derived from the Tax Lot Polygon feature class that is part of the Department of Finance's Digital Tax Map (DTM). The tax lots have been clipped to the shoreline, as defined by NYCMap planimetric features. The attribute information is from the Department of City Planning's PLUTO data. The attribute data pertains to tax lot and building characteristics and geographic, political and administrative information for each tax lot in New York City.The Tax Lot Polygon feature class and PLUTO are derived from different sources. As a result, some PLUTO records do not have a corresponding tax lot in the Tax Lot polygon feature class at the time of release. These records are included in a separate non-geographic PLUTO Only table. There are a number of reasons why there can be a tax lot in PLUTO that does not match the DTM; the most common reason is that the various source files are maintained by different departments and divisions with varying update cycles and criteria for adding and removing records. The attribute definitions for the PLUTO Only table are the same as those for MapPLUTO. DCP Mapping Lots includes some features that are not on the tax maps. They have been added by DCP for cartographic purposes. They include street center 'malls', traffic islands and some built streets through parks. These features have very few associated attributes.To report problems, please open a GitHub issue or email DCPOpendata@planning.nyc.gov.DATES OF INPUT DATASETS:Department of City Planning - E-Designations: 2/5/2021Department of City Planning - Zoning Map Index: 7/31/2019Department of City Planning - NYC City Owned and Leased Properties: 11/15/2020Department of City Planning - NYC GIS Zoning Features: 2/5/2021Department of City Planning - Polictical and Administrative Districts: 11/17/2020Department of City Planning - Geosupport version 20D: 11/17/2020Department of Finance - Digital Tax Map: 1/30/2021Department of Finance - Mass Appraisal System (CAMA): 2/10/2021Department of Finance - Property Tax System (PTS): 2/6/2021Landmarks Preservation Commission - Historic Districts: 2/4/2021Landmarks Preservation Commission - Individual Landmarks: 2/4/2021Department of Information Telecommunications & Technology - Building Footprints: 2/10/2021Department of Parks and Recreation - GreenThumb Garden Info: 1/4/2021

Abstract

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.

This dataset is a complete state-wide digital land use map of Queensland. The dataset is a product of the Queensland Land Use Mapping Program (QLUMP) and was produced by the Queensland Government. It presents the most current mapping of land use features for Queensland, including the land use mapping products from 1999, 2006 and 2009, in a single feature layer. This dataset was last updated July 2012. See additional information also.

Purpose

Indicates the current primary use or management objective of the land.

Dataset History

Source DataQueensland Government - Land use mapping (1999); Landsat TM and ETM imagery; Spot5 imagery; High resolution ortho photography through the Spatial Imagery Subscription Plan (SISP); Queensland Digital Cadastral Database (DCDB) (2009), Queensland Valuation and Sales Database (QVAS) (2009); Queensland Nature Refuges (2009); Queensland Estates (2009); Queensland Herbarium's Regional Ecosystem, Water Body and Wetlands datasets (2009); Statewide Landcover & Trees Study (SLATS) Queensland Dams and Waterbodies (2009) and land cover change data; scanned aerial photography (1999-2009).Additional verbal & written information on land uses & their locations was obtained from regional Queensland Government officers, Local Government Authorities, land owners & managers, private industry as well as from field observations & checking.Data captureA range of existing digital datasets containing land use information was collated from the Queensland Government spatial data inventory and prepared for use in a GIS using ArcGIS and ERDAS Imagine software.Processing steps To compile the 1999 baseline mapping, datasets containing baseline land cover (supplied by SLATS), Protected Areas, State Forest and Timber Reserves, plantations, coastal wetlands, reserves (from DCDB) and logged forests were interpreted in a spatial model to produce a preliminary land use raster image.The model incorporated a decision matrix which assigned each pixel a specific land use class according to a set of pre-determined rules.Individual catchments were clipped from the model output and enhanced with additional land use information interpreted primarily from Landsat TM and ETM imagery as well as scanned and hardcopy aerial photography (where available). The DCDB and other datasets containing land use information were used to help identify property and land use type boundaries. This process produced a draft land use raster.Verification of the draft land use dataset, particularly those with significant areas of intensive land uses, was undertaken by comparing mapped land use classes with observed land use classes in the field where possible. The final raster image was converted to a vector coverage in ARC/Info and GIS editing performed.The existing 1999 baseline (or later where available) land use dataset (vector) formed the basis for the 2006 and 2009 land use mapping. The 2006 & 2009 datasets were then updated primarily by interpretation of SPOT5 imagery, high-res orthophotography, scanned aerial photography and inclusion of expert local knowledge. This was performed in an ESRI ArcSDE geodatabase replication infrastructure, across some nine regional offices. The DCDB, QVAS, Estates, Queensland Herbarium wetlands and SLATS land cover change and waterbody datasets were used to assist in identification and delineation of property and land use type boundaries. Digitised areas of uniform land use type were assigned to land use classes according to ALUMC Version 7 (May 2010).This "current" land use mapping product presents a complete state-wide land use map of Queensland, after collating the most current land use datasets within a single mapping layer.An independent validation was undertaken to assess thematic (attribute) accuracy under the ALUM classification. Please refer to the orignal source data for the validation results.

Historic land uses on lots that were vacant, privately owned, and zoned for manufacturing in 2009. Information came from a review of several years of historical Sanborn maps over the past 100 years.

When the SPEED 1.0 mapping application was created in 2009, OER had its vendor examine historic land use maps on vacant, privately-owned, industrially-zoned tax lots. Up to seven years of maps for each lot were examined, and information was recorded that indicated industrial uses or potential environmental contamination such as historic fill. Data for an additional 139 lots requested by community-based organizations was added in 2014. Each record represents the information from a map from a particular year on a particular tax lot at that time. Limitations of funding determined the number of lots included and entailed that not all years were examined for each lot.

Human use of the land has a large effect on the structure of terrestrial ecosystems and the dynamics of biogeochemical cycles. For this reason, terrestrial ecosystem and biogeochemistry models require moderate resolution information on land use in order to make realistic predictions. Few such datasets currently exist.

This collection consists of output from models that estimate the spatial pattern of land use in four land-use categories by relating a high-resolution land-cover dataset to state-level census data on land use. The models have been parameterized using a goodness-of-fit measure.

The land cover product used was from the IGBP DISCover global product, derived from 1 km AVHRR imagery, with 16 land cover classes (Belward et al., 1999). Land-use data at state-level resolution came from the USDA's Major Land Uses database (USDA, 1996), aggregated into the four general land-use categories described below.

The model was used to generate maps of land use in 1992 for the conterminous U.S. at 0.5 degree spatial resolution. Two different parameterization schemes were used to spatially interpolate land use from land cover, based on the state-level land use census data: 1) a National Parameterization, and 2) a Regional Parameterization.

For the National Parameterization, a single parameterization relating aggregate land cover and state-level land use. For the Regional Parameterization, a separate parameterization was used for each of seven different regions. The seven regions include: Northeast, Southeast, East North-central, West North-central, Southern Plains, Mountain, and Pacific. These regions are substantially different in terms of land use and land cover. In both cases, the results are a nationally gridded map at 0.5 degrees of land use categories for cropland, pasture/range, forest, and other land use; the other land use category is also further spilt into three additional subcategories (forested, non-forested, non-vegetated).

This project is currently being extended to other regions of the globe, and for other time periods, where both land use census data and image-derived land cover data are available.

Available Datasets:

1) US Land Use - 1992 National Parameterization 2) US Land Use - 1992 Regional Parameterization

Each dataset has 4 major land use categories and 3 subcategories of the Other major land use category.

Extensive land use and geographic data at the tax lot level in GIS format (ESRI Shapefile). Contains more than seventy fields derived from data maintained by city agencies, merged with tax lot features from the Department of Finance’s Digital Tax Map, clipped to the shoreline.
