Summary
Geospatial data are inherently rich and complex, often consisting of large databases and complicated file structures. These data are frequently used to study primate resource use (e.g., Coleman & Hill 2014), social group formation and maintenance (e.g., Qi et al. 2014), and disease transmission (Springer et al. 2016), among many relevant topics. Geospatial data commonly take the form of movement tracks resulting from a researcher following an animal or group of animals and recording their location using handheld GPS units (e.g., Howard et al. 2015; Janmaat et al. 2013; Chapter 6). These movement tracks may also be recorded by GPS tags placed on individual animals (e.g., Patzelt et al. 2014; Chapters 3 and 4). Geospatial data may also result from researchers walking transects to survey primate occurrence (e.g., Araldi et al. 2014; Hicks et al. 2014). This type of data are composed of location coordinates (e.g., the track the primate or the researcher walked) and attribute data, such as time, observed behaviors, or unique identifiers for individuals. Raster and vector areal data (see the section Raster Data) that characterize landscapes of interest also make significant contributions to the study of primatology (e.g., Szantoi et al. 2017). Due to the richness and complexity of geospatial data, automated processing is advantageous, as it reduces processing time and reduces the chance of user error, compared to manual editing.

Up-converting thermographic phosphors are of significant interest due to specific advantages for temperature measurement applications over traditional contact-based methods. Typically, infrared excitation stimulates visible fluorescence only from the target phosphor and not the surrounding medium. This is in contrast to ultraviolet excitation which may also produce interfering luminescence from cells and other biological tissue in the vicinity, for instance. When traversing a material, usually infrared losses due to scattering and absorption are less than for ultraviolet wavelengths. An example is human skin. This investigation follows logically from earlier efforts incorporating thermographic phosphors into elastomers and aerogels and their function as a reusable temperature sensor has been previously demonstrated by the authors. Layered phosphor/PDMS/aerogel composites are also currently under investigation by the authors for heat flux sensing. For maximum utility and understanding; physical, optical and thermal properties are characterized over a wide range of temperatures. Y2O2S:Yb,Er and La2O2S:Yb,Er up-converting phosphor composites with a fixed doping concentration were synthesized for this study and fully characterized as a function of temperature. The excitation/ emission characteristics of the powder alone and the prepared composites were investigated between -50 °C and +200 °C in an environmental chamber and the decay behavior of each sample type was measured. Here, the authors report on decay behavior and emission intensity of the PDMS composites as a function of temperature. Results were compared with powder –only parameters and are reported here.

Applying the framework proposed by Jeffery et al. to nonhuman primates moving in multilayer arboreal and terrestrial environments, we see that these animals must generate a mosaic of many bicoded spaces in order to move efficiently and safely through their habitat. Terrestrial light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology and three-dimensional modelling of canopy movement may permit testing of Jeffery et al.'s framework in natural environments.

Summary
Introduction
In 1997, we were designing experiments to assess the stability of correspondence between points in the two retinas and the phenomenon of stereoscopic hysteresis (Diner and Fender, 1987; Fender and Julesz, 1967). As part of these experiments, we presented binocularly uncorrelated random-dot images to the two eyes in a stereoscope. Binocularly uncorrelated images produce a percept of noisy, incoherent depth, since there is no consistent disparity signal. However, when we moved the images in the two eyes laterally in opposing directions we obtained a compelling sense of coherent motion in depth. When the display was stopped, the stimulus again appeared as noisy depth. We quickly realized that the motion-in-depth percept was consistent with dichoptic motion cues in the stimulus. Thus, a compelling sense of changing depth can be supported by a stimulus that produces no coherent static depth. This was quite surprising, since experiments several years earlier had suggested that stereoscopic motion-in-depth perception could be fully explained by changes in disparity between correlated images. Unknown to us, Shioiri and colleagues had made similar findings, which they reported at the same Association for Research in Vision and Opthalmology (ARVO) meeting where we first presented our findings (Shioiri et al., 1998, 2000), although we found out they had also presented them earlier at a meeting in Japan. We performed a number of experiments on this phenomenon, reported as conference abstracts (Allison et al., 1998; Howard et al., 1998) that were subsequently cited.
