Crowdsourcing graphical perception: using mechanical turk to assess visualization design

TL;DR: The viability of Amazon's Mechanical Turk as a platform for graphical perception experiments is assessed and cost and performance data are reported and recommendations for the design of crowdsourced studies are distill.

Measures of Spatial Segregation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a general approach to measuring spatial segregation among multiple population groups, and develop a general spatial exposure/isolation index, and a set of general multigroup spatial evenness/clustering indices: a spatial information theory index, a spatial relative diversity index and a spatial dissimilarity index.

The Utility of Hotspot Mapping for Predicting Spatial Patterns of Crime

TL;DR: This research uses crime data for a period before a fixed date (that has already passed) to generate hotspot maps, and test their accuracy for predicting where crimes will occur next, indicating that crime hotspot mapping prediction abilities differ between the different techniques and differ by crime type.

Maps as social constructions: power, communication and visualization

TL;DR: The map's power to explore, analyze and visualize spatial datasets to understand patterns better has been explored in cartography as discussed by the authors, with the focus on the genealogy of power in mapping practices, and enabling multiple, contingent and exploratory perspectives of data.
