Yongwan Chun The University of Texas at Dallas “Uncertainty in Spatial Analysis: Visualization, Measurement, and Modeling” Join us this Thursday December 3 from 4:00-5:00 PM with Guest speaker Yongwan Chun of The University of Texas at Dallas Uncertainty in spatial analysis has been recognized in the literature. Research has addressed various aspects of uncertainty including different sources of error, visualization of uncertainty, and error propagations. While positional error is inevitably raised in data representations, e.g., in GIS, attribute error also has an impact on spatial analysis. The release of margins of error (MOEs) in American Community Survey (ACS) draws an attention to attribute errors in spatial analysis. Focusing on attribute error, this presentation discusses uncertainty-related research areas in spatial analysis and shows recent progresses specifically, visualization, measurement, and modeling of uncertainty.
