Causes and consequences of error in digital elevation models

TL;DR: The source and nature of errors in digital models of elevation, and in the derivatives of such models, are reviewed, the correction of errors and assessment of fitness for use are examined, and some priorities for future research are identified.

Theory and methods for accuracy assessment of thematic maps using fuzzy sets

TL;DR: In this article, the use of fuzzy sets in map accuracy assessment expands the amount of information that can be provided regarding the nature, frequency, magnitude, and source of errors in a thematic map.

Identifying gaps in conservation networks: of indicators and uncertainty in geographic-based analyses

TL;DR: A set of critical assumptions and issues that influence the interpretation and implementation of gap analysis are reviewed, including the assumption that a subset of taxa can be used to indicate overall diversity patterns, and the impact of uncertainty and error propagation in reserve design.

Geomorphic change detection using historic maps and DEM differencing: The temporal dimension of geospatial analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of methods of geomorphic change detection based on gridded models, which can be applied to a wide range of time periods by utilizing cartometric, remote sensing, or ground-based topographic survey data to measure volumetric change.

Predicting best with imperfect data

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the effect of errors and their propagation in models for estimating the value of improvements in data and propose a well-known formula for computing the error in the output.
