The article is devoted to the problem of using remote sensing data for studying and mapping archaeological sites in interdisciplinary research. The purpose of the experiments is to develop a methodology for searching and mapping archeological monuments based on the interpretation of aerospace images. The problem to be solved is formalized search and the procedure of selecting objects. The complex of tasks for ridentifying objects from images cannot be realated only to the field of decryption, it also deals with the field of information processing signals (computer vision), and this is where the great potential for continuing experiments is seen. In the process of implementing the tasks, the Detection Artefacts software package was developed, which is based on noise reduction, filtering, morphological analysis, binarization, etc. Its notable feature is the freedom of choice settings, the ability of setting parameters

Quantitative Spatial Analysis

In 2006, a policy reform restructured the maternal and perinatal healthcare system, including closing smaller maternity units, to further improve care in Portugal. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the 2006 National Program of Maternal and Neonatal Health policy on spatial inequalities in access to care and consequently avoidable infant mortality. A thematic analysis of qualitative data including interviews and surveys and a quantitative spatial analysis using Geographic Information Systems was applied. Spatial inequalities were found which may lead to avoidable infant mortality. Inequalities exist in freedom of choice and autonomy in care, within a medicalized system. Changes in approach to and organization of care would further enhance equitable spatial access to care in maternal health and reduce avoidable infant mortality.

And Child Health

The right to exercise choice is fundamental to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and it is assumed that all individuals generally enjoy freedom of choice in managing their health. Yet closer examination of this assumption calls into question its credibility and validity, especially with regard to maternal and child health around the globe. We argue that the concept of individual ‘healthy choice,’ particularly as applied to those with inadequate support and who are relatively disempowered, is flawed and unhelpful when considering the wider social, economic, and political forces underlying poor health. We instead propose that the realistic promotion of healthy choices requires acknowledging that agency lies beyond just the individual, and that individuals need to be supported through education and other structural and policy changes that facilitate a genuine ability to make healthy choices.
