JAG publishes a massive review on GeoAI in quantitative human geography. In this paper, 8 of our lab members have been involved in. Starting from a corpus of 14,537 papers, 1516 of them were reviewed to outline the applications of GeoAI in this domain. 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.…

Excited to share our recent paper on high-resolution PM2.5 prediction modeling from low-cost sensor data. By comparing the model results of multiple cities, we identify space-time kriging models perform better for PM2.5 predictions than machine learning approaches.

Thrilled to share our latest publication in IJGIS! 🎉 Our review dives into how street view imagery and cutting-edge visual intelligence techniques are reshaping built environment auditing. Check out our full article for more: doi.org/10.1080/136588…

New paper with @Dapper_Mapper, Yilei Yu, and Hannah K. Friedrich! Our review highlights disparities in health outcomes following flood events in the US, but also provides methodological critiques to emphasize the need for precise flood exposure metrics and community engagement.
