Polish Academy of Sciences}, language={eng}, abstract={The map overlay problem occurs when mismatched gridded data needs to be combined; the problem consists of determining which portion of grid cells in one grid relate to partly overlapping cells of the target grid. This problem contains inherent uncertainty, but is an important and necessary first step in analysing and combining data; any improvement in achieving a more accurate relation between the grids will positively impact the subsequent anal­ysis and conclusions. Here, a novel approach using techniques from fuzzy con­trol and artificial intelligence is presented to provide a new methodology. The method uses a fuzzy inference system to decide how data represented in one grid can be distributed over another grid using additionally available knowl­edge; thus mimicking the higher reasoning a human would use to consider the problem.}, title={Solving the Map Overlay Problem with a Fuzzy Approach}, type={Text}, keywords={Artificial intelligence, Sztuczna inteligencja, Fuzzy inference, Map overlay problem, Iterative method, Artificial intelligent systems, Rozmyte systemy wnioskowania, Metoda iteracyjna}, }
