At the Wangaloa Coal Mine, South-East Otago, ArcGIS is being used to manage, integrate, analyse and visualise the diverse range of datasets being generated from an interdisciplinary research team. GIS will assist with ...

This talk will address the problem of determining the semi-rigid motion of an ice floe from a series of grayscale images of the floe. The analysis will start with the global properties of the images. The next step is to ...

The complexity of land transportation systems nowadays requires an appropriate way of modelling and representing its related transportation features for ease of storage, retrieval, analysis and decision making. Transportation ...

To understand the mechanisms underlying a successful team, one must first understand the circumstances leading to successful performance outcomes (i.e., point/goal scoring events). However, tracking player performance in ...

The journey to successful data analysis is vulnerable to loss of accuracy at several key steps in its progression. Thus the ease of understanding the results and strength of insight into a work’s implications depends on ...

Traditional vegetation mapping methodologies consist primarily of field surveying and mapping from aerial photographs or high resolution satellite images. Previous applications of satellite imagery for this task (e.g. ...

The aim of this paper is to examine the modelling of the wind flow over a complex dune topography using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The area of research interest is a massive foredune behind which is a transgressive ...

Landsnails of the subfamily Paryphantinae are active carnivores on earthworms and other snails. Most species are endemic to Northland, New Zealand, are several are of conservation concern, being threatened by habitat ...

Science has provided marvellous descriptions of the Foveaux Strait and of the creatures and ecosystems that it contains, but this has not been enough to prevent a tragedy in Bluff. The tragedy is the loss of the Bluff ...

This presentation discusses and demonstrates ways in which modern technology, specifically Web-based GIS (augmented by low-tech data gathering strategies), and a web page based on local meetings of fishermen and other ...
