2. 1. Modelling, mapping and visualisation of flood inundation uncertainties

   Author : Nancy Joy Lim; Stefan Seipel; S. Anders Brandt; Eva A. U. Sahlin; Matthew Wilson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cartography; flood; hydraulic modelling; GIS; map; uncertainty; visualisation; GIS; hydraulisk modellering; karta; kartografi; osäkerhet; visualisering; översvämning; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

   Abstract : Flood maps showing extents of predicted flooding for a given extreme event have wide usage in all types of spatial planning tasks, as well as serving as information material for the public. However, the production processes that these maps undergo (including the different data, methods, models and decisions from the persons generating them), which include both Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and hydraulic modelling, affect the map’s content, and will be reflected in the final map.

4. 2. Development of a Detailed Geomorphological Mapping System and GIS Geodatabase in Sweden

   Author : Marcus Gustavsson; Else Kolstrup; Harry Seijmonsbergen; Ian S. Evans; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Physical geography and sedimentology; Geomorphology; Geomorphological map; GIS; Sweden; Naturgeografi och sedimentologi;

   Abstract : This thesis presents a method for detailed landscape presentation. The method incorporates both fieldwork-based comprehensive geomorphological description and digital data handling and thus contributes in filling the gap between traditional geomorphological mapping and modern geomorphological studies performed in Geographic Information Systems (GIS).

5. 3. Ontology as Conceptual Schema when Modelling Historical Maps for Database Storage

   Author : Gustaf Svedjemo; Erland Jungert; Wollter Arnberg; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; ontology; historical maps; database modelling; GIS; Geographical Information Systems; archaeology; history; ontologi; historiska kartor; databasmodellering; GIS; geografiska informationssystem; arkeologi; historia; Computer science; Datavetenskap; History subjects; Historieämnen;

   Abstract : Sweden has an enormous treasure in its vast number of large-scale historical maps from a period of 400 years made for different purposes, that we call map series. The maps are also very time and regional dependent with respect to their concepts. A large scanning project by Lantmäteriverket will make most of these maps available as raster images. READ MORE

6. 4. A GIS-based landscape analysis of dissolved organic carbon in boreal headwater streams

   Author : Jan-Olov Andersson; Lars Nyberg; Hjalmar Laudon; Karlstads universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; boreal forests; wetlands; vegetation types; headwater streams; catchment hydrology; streamwater chemistry; DOC; GIS; terrain analysis; DEM; slope; wetness index; TWI; Freshwater ecology; Limnisk ekologi; Biology; Biologi;

   Abstract : In boreal catchments, stream water chemistry is influenced and controlled by several landscape factors. The influence of spatially distributed variables is in turn dependent on the hydrological scale. READ MORE

7. 5. Broad-Scale Patterns in CDOM and Total Organic Matter Concentrations of Inland Waters – Insights from Remote Sensing and GIS

   Author : Enass Said Al-Kharusi; BECC: Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inlandwater; Remote sensing; Sentinel-2 MSI; CDOM; GIS; climate change;

   Abstract : The rise in CDOM (coloured dissloved organic matter) is likely to be relatively more pronounced in remote northern regions. However, there is a lack of monitoring to confirm this. READ MORE
