Spectral and Socioeconomic Assessment of Land Use/Land Cover Changes in Chippewa and Eau Claire Counties, WI

This is a research project which was presented at the annual ASPRS (American Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing) conference in Louisville, KY this past March (2014). This project was guided by Dr. Cyril Wilson from the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire. Socioeconomic data is from the Census and satellite imagery is from Landsat 5 TM. The poster below is the final version which was presented at CERCA at the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire.

Below is the powerpoint from the ASPRS conference and also the poster from Pecora 19 which was in Denver last November (2014).

Below is the presentation created for the ASPRS 2014 annual conference in Louisville, KY. The presentation was a 5 minute "lightning talk" which is why there are only a few slides.

Programs used for analysis: IMAGINE 2010 and 2013, IDRISI, ArcMAP 10.2.2, SPSS, Excel, GWR4
Programs used for poster construction: Photoshop, Illustrator, PowerPoint, and Excel
Full resolution 42" x 46" (cerca) 60" x 42" (pecora)

Fluvial Analysis of the Chippewa River: Current and Speed

This was a project which was undertaken last September (2013). A partner and myself went floating (tubing) down the Chippewa River and carried with us a few GPS units to collect data. The purpose of doing this is explained within the image below. I would like to expand upon this study testing to see if different water heights change the speed or direction of the float.

You can see that on the Speed map there is a lack of data. This is because the speed data was collected using Anti Map and Anti Map only collects data when the screen of the phone is on and when no other applications are running. If the phone receives a text message, phone call, or other alert Anti Map will save the data it has collected and close out.
