Matthieu Noucher

Matthieu Noucher is a geographer and researcher at CNRS, in the Passages laboratory of Bordeaux. His research focuses on the evolution of the representations of space through the analysis of new ways of producing, using and disseminating digital geographic information. He is particularly interested in the political and social dimensions of changes of the geographical representation of the world, related to the development of uses of geolocation technologies and the intrusion of non-specialists into cartographic production (citizen science projects, participatory or collaborative mapping, counter-mapping, etc.).

Métrologies critiques de l'espace. Peer review

Critical Approaches to Metrology.

Matthieu Noucher, Irène Hirt et Xavier Arnauld de Sartre | 21.02.2019

When the construction of a political space demands shared systems of measurement, ensuring that everything is made comparable, coding categories and procedures are brought into place. Attributing singular cases to measurable categories was for a long time a prerogative of the State, but new systems of metrology are now broadening the range of players. With this traversal, we aim to start deconstructing these metrological systems, both old and new, to prompt different readings of the rhetoric behind them. By [...]

Déconstruire la spatialisation de services écosystémiques par la modélisation critique. Peer review

Solen Le Clec'h, Johan Oszwald, Simon Dufour, Michel Grimaldi, Nicolas Jégou et Matthieu Noucher | 07.02.2019

This article analyzes the impact of the choice and accuracy of input data on the metrology of the objects of Nature, based on the example of the ecosystem services mapping in the Amazonian pioneer fronts. To do so, field and remote sensing data are linked using regressions. These regressions emphasize : 1) the unequal capacity to map ecosystem services ; 2) the need to adapt the methodology to each indicator ; 3) the need to take into account various [...]
