Item Geovisualizing Attribute Uncertainty of Interval and Ratio Variables: A Framework and an Implementation for Vector Data(2017-12-14) Koo, Hyeongmo; Chun, Yongwan; Griffith, Daniel A.; 0000-0002-4957-1379 (Chun, Y); 14855602 (Griffith, DA); Griffith, Daniel A.This is a prototype implementation for attribute uncertainty visualization based on bivariate. Specifically, the uncertainty visualizations implemented based on three different ways. First, an overlaid symbols on a choropleth map (OSCM) strategy is implemented to visualize attribute uncertainty. A choropleth map is used to represent attributes at the ratio scale, and additional overlaid symbols, such as textures (spacing), circles (size), and bars (size), visualize attribute uncertainty Second, a coloring properties to proportional symbols (CPPS) strategy is applied. A proportional symbol map is more appropriate to represent raw counts or frequencies, and attribute uncertainty can be represented by color saturation and color value in the hue-saturation-value (HSV) color model of proportional symbols. Finally, a composite symbols (CS) strategy is utilized to represent the possible range of an attribute value with its confidence interval. Symbols in CS are constructed with three different sizes of symbol overlaid for each individual location. Two of these symbols represent uncertainty by visualizing the upper and lower limits of attribute values for a given confidence level. Thus, the CS strategy allows users to directly compare uncertainties with corresponding attribute values and their confidence intervals. The ESRI ArcGIS add-in installation file is compatible with ArcGIS 10.x, and developed in .NET framework 4.5 and ArcObject 10.5. It requires Microsoft Windows Vista or higher.Item Measuring Global Spatial Autocorrelation with Data Reliability Information(Routledge) Koo, Hyeongmo; Wong, D. W. S.; Chun, Yongwan; Koo, Hyeongmo; Chun, YongwanAssessing spatial autocorrelation (SA) of statistical estimates such as means is a common practice in spatial analysis and statistics. Popular SA statistics implicitly assume that the reliability of the estimates is irrelevant. Users of these SA statistics also ignore the reliability of the estimates. Using empirical and simulated data, we demonstrate that current SA statistics tend to overestimate SA when errors of the estimates are not considered. We argue that when assessing SA of estimates with error, one is essentially comparing distributions in terms of their means and standard errors. Using the concept of the Bhattacharyya coefficient, we proposed the spatial Bhattacharyya coefficient (SBC) and suggested that it should be used to evaluate the SA of estimates together with their errors. A permutation test is proposed to evaluate its significance. We concluded that the SBC more accurately and robustly reflects the magnitude of SA than traditional SA measures by incorporating errors of estimates in the evaluation.
