Remote sensing is a useful tool for monitoring changes in land cover over time. The accuracy
of such time-series analyses has hitherto only been assessed using confusion matrices. …

Rapid urbanization in Asian developing countries has led to large urban agglomerations
called “megacities.” The Jakarta megacity keeps growing and has extended along a corridor …

Urban expansion and urbanization have been continuing to grow rapidly, especially in
Asian megacities. Greater Jakarta (Jabodetabek) has emerged as the world's second largest …

The objective of this study is to investigate spatial structures of error in the assessment of
continuous raster data. The use of conventional diagnostics of error often overlooks the …

Recent advances in satellite-borne optical sensors led to important developments in the
monitoring of tropical ecosystems in Asia, which have been strongly affected by recent …

Although a number of studies have developed fast geographically weighted regression (GWR)
algorithms for large samples, none of them has achieved linear-time estimation, which is …

Floral phenology is a key indicator of climate change. However, constructing a local level
spatiotemporal record of cherry blossom blooming events is challenging because of the limited …

This study demonstrates the use of a geographically weighted principal components analysis
(GWPCA) of remote sensing imagery to improve land cover classification accuracy. A …

Because of the lack of time-series spatial data on urban components, urban expansion in
developing countries has usually been studied using a pixel-based approach, despite the …

Forests in the tropics, compared to other ecosystems, serve as major carbon sinks, and those
that are intact store 40% of the aboveground carbon found in all tropical forests (Maxwell et …
