title: SUBSURFACE UTILITY NETWORK CADASTRE PROPOSAL, BASED ON LADM (ISO / FDIS 19152)

description: Abstract: The increasing usage of the space above and underneath the land surface brings up the need of controlling its occupation. The localization of the infrastructure underground network is a major challenge, and for most of the countries, this information is not yet available or not easy to access. At this juncture, the cadastre of the network location is of fundamental importance for the water management supply systems. ISO 19152 from 2012 - Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) - addresses the standardization and integration of common features of cadastre systems in a simple way, and may be applied to several aspects of land administration. Within this context, this research aims to develop a model of subsurface water utility networks, based on the standard proposed by LADM. The implementation of the model suggested by ISO 19152 was tested using the COMPESA cadastre of the water utility network as a study case. The modernization and the technological advances adopted by the company facilitated the understanding of the geographical database underlying structure and its adaptation to the international standard. The modeling was produced using UML language, and DBDesigner for the physical implementation, executed in connection with PostgreSQL/PostGIS and QGIS, was applied.

title: METHODOLOGY FOR THE EXTRACTION OF HOMOLOGOUS POINTS FROM A DEM/DSM TO EVALUATE THE RELATIVE POSITIONAL ACCURACY

description: Abstract: This work presents a new methodology for extracting 3D homologous points from a DEM/DSM for relative evaluation of positional accuracies, from terrain features such as ridgelines and hydrography. Firstly, it extracts 3D intersection points between the linear features and then it performs a selection of these homologous points. A discussion regarding the spatial resolution effect of the DEM/DSM on the proposed methodology is carried out. As case study, the planimetric and altimetric positional accuracies evaluation of SRTM (X-band) and Aster GDEM (version 2) DSMs was conducted using, as reference, a DSM obtained via photogrammetry. The SRTM and Aster GDEM (version 2) DSMs showed similar classifications, that is, Class A for the altimetry and Class B for the planimetry at the 1:100,000 scale, according to the Brazilian technical standard of positional accuracy.

title: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SPLIT-WINDOW AND SINGLE-CHANNEL ALGORITHMS FOR LAND SURFACE TEMPERATURE RETRIEVAL OF A PSEUDO-INVARIANT TARGET

description: Abstract: Land surface temperature (LST) acquired from remote sensing observations is essential to monitor surface energy and water exchange processes at the land-atmosphere interface. Most LST retrieval methodologies are developed focusing on Northern hemisphere. Consequently, Southern hemisphere has a great need for investigating the performance of LST retrieval algorithms already consolidated in the literature. In this paper, we compared a Split-window (SW) and a Single-channel (SC) method to retrieve LST from Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS images in a dune field, Southern Brazil. To validate the results, the Atmospheric Correction Parameter Calculator (ACPC) tool and Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE) were used. Results demonstrated that both methodologies are in accordance with the RTE, despite they overestimated the LST. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated that the means are not statistically significant (0.05 level). The correlations between LST retrieved and RTE were strong, producing R² of 0.984 and 0.973 for the SW and SC, respectively, and RMSE values of 1.18 and 1.6. SW also exhibited the best values of MSD (±0.983) and Bias (0.773), thus reinforcing its superior performance. SW can be applied with an accuracy of 1.18 K in Southern Brazil, without needing complex modeling or specific radiosonde.

title: 3D MODELING TO IDENTIFY AND QUANTIFY OBSTACLES IN AERODROME PROTECTION ZONE

description: Abstract: Aerodromes protection zones are defined by plans that are determined by three-dimensional (3D) limiting surfaces, which establish the airspace that must remain clear of obstacles, imposing some restrictions on land use. The objective of this paper is to generate 3D models of the surrounding area of Salgado Filho International Airport, considering the constructive altimetric limit established in the Aerodrome Protection Zone Basic Plan (PBZPA), to identify and quantify obstacles related to plots (urban land parcels) and buildings. The adopted methodology includes the analysis and selection of geospatial data, data modeling and performing spatial analysis on the generated 3D models. The results showed that out of a total of 106,838 plots, covering an area of 69.68 km², 4,826 plots (4.52%) exceeded the limiting surface and 1,054 plots (0.99%) represent critical areas where constructions may not be allowed. And, out of a total of 200,573 buildings, 26,418 of them (13.17%) exceeded the limit imposed by PBZPA’s. Also, the methodology is valid for detecting and quantifying critical areas concerning the constructive viability of the plots, affected areas regarding the height of the plots and buildings, and for identifying obstacles to aerodromes according to their respective airspace laws.

title: ASSESSMENT OF GPS/GLONASS POINT POSITIONING IN BRAZILIAN REGIONS WITH DISTINCT IONOSPHERIC BEHAVIOR

description: Abstract: Nowadays GPS (Global Positioning System) and GLONASS (GLObal NAvigation Satellite System) are the main systems of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems), also composed by Galileo and BeiDou. After a long period of degradation, GLONASS was modernized, and its constellation was reestablished in 2011. Considering this new scenario, with GPS and GLONASS full constellations, the interest in the combined use of both systems was renewed. Besides the constellations used, other factors are related to the positioning quality, for instance the ionospheric influence. Several studies have been performed aiming to assess GPS positioning quality as well as the ionospheric influence on it, but concerning GLONASS, there are still several possibilities of investigation. In this context, this research aimed to assess the GPS/GLONASS data point positioning performance considering Brazilian regions with different ionospheric behavior during periods of low and high ionospheric activity. Spatial and time ionospheric influence in the positioning performance were observed. Considering all configurations tested with 30-minute data, the use of GPS/GLONASS data provided better results in 97.35% of the cases when compared to autonomous GPS, the mean improvement was about 60 cm, which corresponds to 30%.

title: ASSESSMENT OF HYDROLOGICAL MASS LOSSES IN THE NORTHEAST ATLANTIC EASTERN HYDROGRAPHIC REGION, BRAZIL

description: Abstract: Freshwater monitoring globally is fundamental to support decision-making. However, long-term hydrological data for some regions are lacking due to limited of observational networks. Remote sensing products come to aggregate the in situ observations and overcome obstacles about data availability. This study assesses the hydrological mass losses in the Northeast Atlantic Eastern Hydrographic Region (NAEHR) in Brazil through temporal data sources. GRACE RL06 Mascon solutions, reservoirs volume, vegetation index and rainfall stations are used. The results confirm the cohesion between the TWS variations with water volume and NDVI, obtaining a strong correlation of 0.78 and 0.77 respectively. The Standardized Precipitation Index scales (12, 24 and 36 months) showed a moderate and strong correlation with the TWS of 0.57, 0.73 and 0.72 respectively and identified the last regional severe drought from 2012 to 2017. The NEAHR is located almost entirely in the Brazilian semiarid region, comprises about 24 million inhabitants, it is high vulnerable to drought, thus justifying the importance of monitoring its water resources availability.

title: The quality of OpenStreetMap in a large metropolis in northeast Brazil: Preliminary assessment of geospatial data for road axes

description: Abstract: This paper evaluates the data quality of road axes using the OpenStreetMap (OSM) collaborative mapping platform. OSM was chosen owing to the abundance of data and registered contributors (~ 6 million). We assumed the OSM collaborative data could complement the reference mappings by its quality parameters. We used the cartographic quality indicators of positional accuracy, thematic accuracy, and completeness to validate vector files from OSM. We analyzed the positional accuracy of linear features and we developed the automation of the positional accuracy process. The tool verified the completeness of road axes and thematic accuracy. The positional accuracy of linear features was also used, performed to obtain a range of scales, which reflected the characteristics of mapped areas and varied from 1:22,500 to 1:25,000. The completeness of road axes was 82% of the checked areas. By evaluating the thematic accuracy, we found that the absence of road axes toponymy in editions caused errors in the OSM features (i.e., 58% of road axes without information). As such, we concluded that collaborative data complements the reference cartography by measuring the heterogeneity of information in various regions and filtering the OSM data, despite its being useful for certain analyses.

title: Strombidium cf. basimorphum growth, ingestion, and photosynthetic responses to different irradiance and prey concentration

description: This data was generated as part of a study in which inorganic carbon uptake, growth, and ingestion rates were measured for S. cf. basimorphum under three different irradiances (10, 40, and 120 μmol photons m–2 s–1) when acclimated (Acc_Com.xlsx) to three different prey densities (5000, 10000, and 40000 cells mL-1), and when allowed to deplete the prey (Starv_comp.xlsx). After prey depletion, cultures survived without prey longest (~6 days) at the medium test irradiance (40 μmol photons m–2 s–1), while inorganic carbon uptake rates and cellular chl-a content declined fastest at the highest test irradiance. This indicates that the ciliates may be unable to maintain the chloroplasts functionally without replacement at high irradiances. Ingestion rates were significantly lower at the highest tested irradiance only when cultures were acclimated to the highest tested prey density. The maximum gross growth efficiency (GGE) in this study (1.1) was measured in cultures exposed to the medium test irradiance and lowest prey density treatment (5×103 cells mL-1). The relative contribution of inorganic carbon uptake to the ciliate carbon budget was also highest in this treatment (81%). A secondary GGE peak (0.99) occurred when cultures were exposed to the highest test irradiance and the medium prey density. These and other results suggest that S. cf. basimorphum and other generalist non-constitutive mixotrophs can flexibly exploit many different environmental conditions across the globe. Units can be found in the first mention of each parameter for every sheet. Version 2: Corrects a mistake in the notes: the variable Lchla was measured in [µg chl-a/ L] not [pg chl-a/L]. Adds missing biovolume information to the acclimation data.

title: Assessment of positional accuracy in spatial data using techniques of spatial statistics: proposal of a method and an example using the Brazilian standard

description: This paper presents the importance of simple spatial statistics techniques applied in positional quality control of spatial data. To this end, Analysis methods of point data spatial distribution pattern are presented, as well as bias analysis in the positional discrepancies samples. To evaluate the points spatial distribution Nearest Neighbor and Ripley's K function methods were used. As for bias analysis, the average directional vectors of discrepancies and the circular variance were used. A methodology for positional quality control of spatial data is proposed, in which includes sampling planning and its spatial distribution pattern evaluation, analyzing the data normality through the application of bias tests, and positional accuracy classification according to a standard. For the practical experiment, an orthoimage generated from a PRISM scene of the ALOS satellite was evaluated. Results showed that the orthoimage is accurate on a scale of 1:25,000, being classified as Class A according to the Brazilian standard positional accuracy, not showing bias at the coordinates. The main contribution of this work is the incorporation of spatial statistics techniques in cartographic quality control.

title: EXAMINATION METHOD OF THE EFFECT OF THE INCIDENCE ANGLE OF LASER BEAM ON DISTANCE MEASUREMENT ACCURACY TO SURFACES WITH DIFFERENT COLOUR AND ROUGHNESS

description: Interest in the influence of the incidence angle of a laser beam to distance measurements can be seen in many areas of science and technology: geodesy, glaciology, archaeology, machine automation, and others. This paper presents results of measurements of the effect of the incidence angle of a laser beam to distance measurements to the surfaces of different colour and roughness by Topcon's electro-optical total station with an accuracy of 3 mm. Measurement method and the method of elimination of test stand errors are presented. The results of measurements have been analysed and the influence of selected factors (surface colour and roughness, lack of instrument rectification) on the distance measurement have been discussed. It is also shown the critical incidence angle above which it can be impossible to measure distances to reflective foil with tested total station
