Super-resolution mapping (SRM) is an ill-posed problem, and different SRM algorithms may generate non-identical fine spatial resolution land-cover maps (sub-pixel maps) from the same input coarse spatial resolution image. The output sub-pixels maps m... Read More about Improving super-resolution mapping through combining multiple super-resolution land-cover maps.

The current state of crowdsourced geographic information. ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 5(5), 55. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijgi5050055

Citizens are increasingly becoming an important source of geographic information, sometimes entering domains that had until recently been the exclusive realm of authoritative agencies. This activity has a very diverse character as it can, amongst oth... Read More about Crowdsourcing, citizen science or volunteered geographic information?

The development of remote sensing has enabled the acquisition of information on land-cover change at different spatial scales. However, a trade-off between spatial and temporal resolutions normally exists. Fine-spatial-resolution images have low temp...

Geographically weighted evidence combination approaches for combining discordant and inconsistent volunteered geographical information (2016)
Journal Article
Comber, A., Fonte, C., Foody, G. M., Fritz, S., Harris, P., Olteanu-Raimond, A.-M., & See, L. (in press). Geographically weighted evidence combination approaches for combining discordant and inconsistent volunteered geographical information. Geoinformatica Polonica, 20(3), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10707-016-0248-z

There is much interest in being able to combine crowdsourced data. One of the critical issues in information sciences is how to combine data or information that are discordant or inconsistent in some way. Many previous approaches have taken a majorit...

Impacts of species misidentification on species distribution modeling with presence-only data (2015)
Journal Article
Costa, H., Foody, G. M., Jiménez, S., & Silva, L. (2015). Impacts of species misidentification on species distribution modeling with presence-only data. ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 4(4),

Spatial records of species are commonly misidentified, which can change the predicted distribution of a species obtained from a species distribution model (SDM). Experiments were undertaken to predict the distribution of real and simulated species us...
