Deriving Beach Grain Size from Satellite Imagery: A multimethod approach for deriving intertidal beach slopes and sediment grain sizes for different coastal environments

The world's coasts are at risk: an estimated 24% of the world's beaches are eroding. Extreme events such as storms continuously threaten the coastal region and pose a serious risk of coastal flooding. Under the influence of climate change, the seaward pressures are only expected to increase. Sea level rise is accelerating, storm intensities and...

San Vicente Port: Development plan for a multipurpose terminal

LOCKFILL - Schematisatie langskrachten bij vullen en ledigen sluiskolken

Een schutsluis maakt het mogelijk om schepen van het ene naar het andere waterpeil te brengen. Van belang is hierbij dat de krachten op de schepen in de sluis niet te hoog worden. Het vullen en ledigen van een schutsluis gaat gepaard met golf- en stromingsverschijnselen die krachten op schepen uitoefenen. De langskrachten mogen niet te groot...

Procedural generation and interactive web visualization of natural environments

Interactive 3D visualization of natural environments can help ecologists, policy makers and the broad public in general to better understand, promote and protect both existing and developing environments. The creation and exploration of virtual worlds can be very helpful for this purpose. However, current techniques are not able to generate...

Automatic generation of plant distributions for existing and future natural environments using spatial data

This research proposes an algorithm for the generation of realistic plant distribution for both existing and future areas using spatial data. The main motivation for this research is to be able to generate realistic plant positions for the 3D visualization of existing and future natural environments. Current techniques for determining plant...

DaRen: A multi-purpose 3D indoor navigation application

This is the final report of the 2013 Synthesis Project of MSc Geomatics. The research is about the possibilities of creating the DaRen application: "A multi-purpose 3D indoor navigation application".

CHAINels: Journal

A group of three students worked a couple of months at CHAINels for their computer science bachelor project. In these months a recommendation algorithm was designed and implemented in CHAINels. The recommendation algorithm recommends posts to a company and those posts are shown in the Journal which was also made during this project. In this...
