Change detection – Detección de cambios en polígonos
THE PROCEDURE: Centroids of buildings; Spatial join showing presence-absence, considering a 10m accuracy threshold, meaning if the centroid has not moved more than 10m, its the same building. If the centroid in 2012 is not in 2014, its considered as demolished. If a new centroid appears its considered new building.

Cool data. What is this?
What is this ‘cool data‘ all about?. When i got my degree in Geography (about 15 years ago) it didn’t make sense at all being interested in something like graphic design, photography, video and all this stuff… but not only interested in my leisure time but also for taking advantage of it, getting a lifeContinue reading “Cool data.
