Since the lahars were produced repetitively, scientists realized that they could use these to analyze a trial period for a newly developed device proposed to measure the movement of rocks against each other.

Energy accounting is a system used to measure, analyze and report the energy consumption of different activities on a regular basis.

Until fast computers were widely available, it was impractical to analyze and measure images for possible minor planet discoveries because this involved a considerable amount of manual labor.

Boundary scan is also widely used as a debugging method to watch integrated circuit pin states, measure voltage, or analyze sub-blocks inside an integrated circuit.

PSQM uses a psychoacoustical mathematical modeling ( both perceptual and cognitive ) algorithm to analyze the pre and post transmitted voice signals, yielding a PSQM value which is a measure of signal quality degradation and ranges from 0 ( no degradation ) to 6. 5 ( highest degradation ).

The approach is to measure and analyze the surface texture in order to be able to understand how the texture is influenced by its history, ( e. g., manufacture, wear, fracture ) and how it influences its behavior ( e. g., adhesion, gloss, friction ).

E. W. Gilbert's version ( 1958 ) of John Snow ( physician ) | John Snow's 1855 map of the Soho cholera outbreak showing the clusters of cholera cases in the London epidemic of 1854 While the basic elements of topography and theme existed previously in cartography, the John Snow map was unique, using cartographic methods not only to depict but also to analyze clusters of geographically dependent phenomena.

c ) the whole of the map parchment ( again, unlike its companions ) had been coated or soaked in an unknown substance — they were not allowed to take a large enough sample to analyze it ;

We see that we can easily read off the index of the linear map T from the involved spaces, without any need to analyze T in detail.

One can think of geographical features as the " source code " behind a map, whereas the WMS interface or online mapping portals like Google Maps return only an image, which end-users cannot edit or spatially analyze.

A completed station-model map allows users to analyze patterns in air pressure, temperature, wind, cloud cover, and precipitation.
