Fire propagation visualization in real time

Our motivation comes from the need of a tailored computational tool for simulation and prediction of forest fire propagation, to be used by firefighters in Patagonia, Argentina.Based on previous works on Graphic Processing Units (GPU) for fitting and simulating fires in our region, we developed a visualization interface for real time computing, sim

Short Note: Comparison of three surveying techniques applied to hydrogeological studies: level, barometer, and GPS

The error from three different surveying techniques- level, hand-held barometer, and hand-held GPS-were compared in terms of accuracy and cost effectiveness for hydrogeological studies by surveying a four-kilometer Tattoo circuit within the campus of the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.The polygon was surveyed once with the level and the ba
