Flood Detention Basin: Techniques for Identifying Suitable Locations and Measuring Analysis Accuracy

A flood detention basin is a man-made structure designed to temporarily store stormwater runoff in order to reduce the risk of downstream flooding. The basin typically includes a depression or pond that can hold water during a storm, along with an outlet or spillway that slowly releases the water once the storm has passed. These basins are typically found in urban areas, where they can help to manage the increased volume of runoff caused by

Location Privacy

Beresford and Stajano define location privacy as “the ability to prevent other parties from learning one’s current or past location.” This definition specifies that the data subject—or the person whose location data is affected—should have control over the use and subsequent use of their data, which can be viewed as an extension of the previously presented definition of privacy. The device’s physical location can be determined using one of three methods: (1) satellite navigation systems

Finding the best locations and paths

“A very common type of spatial analysis, and probably the one you are most familiar with, is optimization and finding the best of something. You might be looking for the best route to travel, the best path to ride a bicycle, the best corridor to build a pipeline, or the best location to site a new store. Using multiple input variables or a set of decision criteria for finding the best locations and paths can
