Uncertainty in Geovisual Analytics of Land Cover Change Processes (PhD project)
This project is concerned with the role of uncertainty during
analyses using Geovisual Analytics. Is uncertainty information
beneficial when it is visually communicated to the user during the
analysis? Can users get better insights with the use of uncertainty
information?
