Design Example: Identifying the Locations of Monuments in the Field Using Global Positioning System Device

34
Surveyors use Global Positioning System (GPS) technology to measure the precise location and elevation of points on Earth. In a recent survey, GPS receivers were used to determine the coordinates and elevations of two park monuments. The process involved careful mission planning, data collection, and correction to ensure accuracy. The survey began with mission planning to identify optimal satellite visibility and minimize Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP). A geodetic control point...

Design Example: Alignment of a Road Line Using GIS

49
The alignment of a road line using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a critical process in civil engineering, combining advanced technology with practical decision-making. This methodology begins with the collection of geospatial data, including information on land cover, geomorphology, drainage patterns, slope, and contour details. Such data is typically acquired through satellite imagery and GIS tools, offering a comprehensive understanding of the terrain.Once the data is gathered, it...

Manipulation and Analysis

26
GIS manipulation and analysis functions are vital for decision-making and planning. These activities range from data retrieval tasks, such as selecting information based on specific criteria, to advanced analytical techniques that address complex spatial problems.One critical GIS analysis method is overlaying, which combines multiple data layers to examine impacts. For example, overlaying a river-dammed lake boundary with road networks can identify affected infrastructure. Another common...

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Mobile Computing
  • Data Science

Background:

  • Participatory crowdsensing (PCS) utilizes mobile device sensors for data collection.
  • Existing PCS research often overlooks task associations and user ability matching.
  • Inefficient task assignment leads to poor data quality and resource wastage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce a multi-task assignment and path-planning problem (MTAPP) to optimize PCS.
  • Maximize overall user utility, defined as profit-to-time ratio.
  • Improve task assignment and path generation in PCS.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a grade-matching degree and similarity-based mechanism (GSBM).
  • Established a mathematical model to analyze task similarity's impact on completion.
  • Employed an improved ant colony optimization (IACO) algorithm for utility maximization.

Main Results:

  • GSBM effectively matches user abilities to tasks, enhancing income determination.
  • Task similarity positively impacts user task completion rates.
  • IACO algorithm significantly outperforms other methods in key performance metrics.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed MTAPP framework and GSBM mechanism enhance PCS efficiency.
  • IACO algorithm provides a robust solution for optimizing participatory crowdsensing.
  • This approach leads to better task coverage, completion rates, profits, and assignment rationality.
