Value stream mapping is a technique used to make a company “lean” by identifying and removing unnecessary steps. It involves analyzing the process and distinguishing between value and waste. Skilled managers then eliminate wasteful steps and find ways to increase product value. Value stream mapping is a technique used to identify and remove unnecessary steps […]
Business process mapping uses visual layouts to explain functions. Mapping tools, such as software, can document, review, and revise processes, identify inefficiencies, and automate functions. They can also help comply with regulations and ensure uniformity across departments. Business process mapping is a concept that uses written words and visual layouts to explain typical functions. As […]
GIS is a computer system for capturing, storing, analyzing, and displaying geographic information. It can collect data from GPS, paper maps, satellite imagery, and other sources. GIS mapping can be used for various purposes, including land use planning, weather forecasting, and analyzing patterns. Different formats are available for GIS mapping, such as DLG, DEM, DRG, […]
Sphere mapping is a technique used in computer graphics to apply an image or texture to a 3D sphere. It can be used for environmental mapping or to create textured spheres. The method distorts the image in different ways depending on its use, but it is fast and effective. In computer graphics, sphere mapping can […]
Network mapping is the study of internet connectivity to determine how network systems are managed. It uses software to identify operating systems and create visual materials for a variety of purposes. Basic tasks include flowcharts, diagrams, and inventories, while more advanced techniques use active probing to collect system information. Network mapping tools can be important […]
Network mapping is creating a diagram of a network’s connectivity. Professionals use software to create accurate diagrams. The software varies in complexity and price, with some being free. Choosing the best software depends on the size of the network and desired features. Seeking advice from colleagues or researching established software can help in the decision-making […]
OpenGL® texture mapping applies texture maps to digital geometry in 3D graphics programs, using programming calls to bring textures into the virtual environment. Texture mapping makes virtual objects more realistic by providing more detail and a more realistic look. Texture maps are brought into virtual memory, assigned an identification number, and applied to specific surfaces […]
GIS mapping uses computer hardware and software to transform geographic data into visual references for analysis. It has been used for years, but computer technology has greatly enhanced its capabilities. GIS mapping software is used in demographics and can be used for a range of applications. Google Maps® has brought GIS mapping to the masses, […]
GIS mapping is the process of converting geographical data into visual references for analysis. It uses computer hardware and software to refine raw information into actionable data, which can be used in various applications. Google Maps® is a popular open-source GIS mapping software that allows amateur programmers to create maps, while professionals use specialized software […]
Chromosome mapping determines gene locations on chromosomes, aiding understanding of physical traits and disease treatment. Genetic linkage shows inherited genes are passed on in groups. Gene and physical mapping distinguish gene order and location. Methods include breeding experiments and microbiological techniques. Chromosome mapping is the process of determining the locations of specific genes on a […]
Bump mapping adds texture to a 3D surface without increasing polygon count. Three types of bump mapping include basic, normal, and parallax maps. It is useful for creating realistic surfaces in video games with limited polygon counts. Bump mapping is a process by which a texture, or texture map, is applied to a surface in […]
Online mapping provides customized maps based on individual needs, including driving preferences and textual guidance. It can be updated in real-time, but may have limitations and drawbacks if a traveler goes off course. Online mapping is a way to use maps available online to provide a number of features that traditional maps have been providing […]
3D mapping technology creates 3D views of objects on computer screens. It is used in GPS devices, building schematics, medical science, astronomy, car and boat design, and city planning. 3D mapping is a technology that creates three-dimensional views of objects on computer screens. This type of technology is often used in modern computer programs to […]
GIS is a system that stores geographic information used for cartography, creating accurate and layered maps. The World GIS consists of public, private, and government-run databases with information about human and animal habitation, historical data, surface and substrate conditions, or current and historical use of natural resources. GIS cartography focuses on multilayered information allowing users […]
Alpha mapping is a process in 3D CGI that adds transparency to an object. It involves creating a grayscale texture map that indicates different levels of opacity, with white being solid and black being transparent. This process is used to add extra realism and detail to objects without changing the polygon count. Alpha mapping is […]
Bump mapping is a technique used in 3D computer graphics to apply a 2D image to the surface of an object to change its appearance. The 2D image determines the height of the corresponding location on a 3D model, allowing for fine detail and accurate shadows without the need for memory-intensive meshes. Bump mapping relies […]
Direct mapping is a simple method of storing information in a cache for easy access. Cached data is constantly overwritten, and the hit rate determines how often data is found in the cache. However, direct mapping has a lower success rate than other models due to frequent overwriting. Direct mapping is a method of storing […]
Access point mapping, also known as war driving, is the unauthorized use of unsecured wireless LANs. GPS technology is used to locate open networks, which can be used for anything from checking email to obtaining business documents. To prevent access point mapping, businesses and individuals should use built-in security technology and set up a firewall. […]
Tone mapping adjusts high dynamic range (HDR) images for display on low dynamic range (LDR) media. HDR images have a wide range of tones, while LDR images have less distinction between tones. Tone mapping involves combining multiple images to create a final image with the tonal range of an HDR image but suitable for LDR […]
Data mapping is the process of creating a link between two distinct data models, commonly used in software engineering. It is useful for data transformation, data lineage analysis, and uncovering hidden information. Procedures include manual data mapping and formula considerations. It is used in merging data for companies and newer techniques involve using statistics for […]
