[Geospatial] UPDATE: Geospatial/GIS meetup in-person attendance today is OK!

[Janet Reyes]

Hello again,

Just wanted to confirm: you do have the option of attending today's meetup in Rivera Library, Room 140 -- or on Zoom https://ucr.zoom.us/j/99789962500?pwd=Rmk5elNDQ3cybmIrUURTSVZJU0lMUT09

(To find Rivera 140: turn right after entering Rivera Library. Keep walking until you pass the elevators. Room 140 is on the corner of the hallway you'll see to your left.)


I hope you'll be able to join us, in whatever format works best for you!

Thank you,


Janet Reyes

Subject: REMINDER: Geospatial/GIS meetup TOMORROW, May 9

Hello everyone,

A reminder that our next Geospatial/GIS meetup will be tomorrow, Thursday, May 9 from 12:00-12:50 pm.

NOTE: This meetup will be held on Zoom for sure, but there's a chance we'll have to skip the in-person option; I'll update you if it turns out that way. The in-person meeting room would be Rivera Library, Room 140.

The meetup will be recorded.

We are fortunate to have two (2) presentations this time! Edward Helderop1 and Tony H. Grubesic2 will each speak about a project from UCR's Center for Geospatial Sciences.

Dr. Helderop will address Higher elevation and higher prices: A model predicting climate gentrification in coastal Florida.

In higher elevation urban areas in coastal Florida, real estate prices and development are both rising at a faster rate than in their lower elevation counterparts, and commercial markers of gentrification in these neighborhoods are increasing. This process pushes lower-income, long-term residents of these gentrifying neighborhoods to areas with higher climate risk exposure. Using a variety of data sources, we develop a model that measures the rate of gentrification of neighborhoods throughout Florida's coastal cities. When combined with future flood regime modeling due to sea level rise and storm surge, we can predict areas likely to experience near-future climate gentrification. We truth the model using hindcasting and conclude with recommendations for policymakers and urban planners.

Dr. Grubesic's talk is titled Unmasking Invisible Infrastructure Networks with UAVs.

Visual clues for subsurface infrastructure systems include features such as manhole covers or broadband boxes, yet the subsurface networks remain hidden. Using high-resolution digital orthophotography from unmanned aerial vehicles, combined with tactical fieldwork to identify locator marks and their associated subsurface systems, we can track/monitor urban infrastructure projects without accessing the municipal permit system or interfacing with public/private infrastructure providers. The use of UAV technologies has implications for anticipating neighborhood disruptions and potential long-term disamenities for residents.
