The planning process for roadway construction involves a large amount of information on design, construction methods, quantities, unit costs, production rates, and site conditions. Therefore, it is very important to acquire, manage, and process the necessary information efficiently to produce a rigorous construction plan. The geographic information system (GIS) is a very effective tool for integrating and managing various types of information, including spatial and nonspatial data, required for roadway construction planning. This paper proposes a GIS-based system for improving roadway construction planning with its "interactive space scheduling" and "operation level planning" functions, which are supported by the integration of various data required for planning. The proposed system can assist construction planners in a unique way by integrating design and construction information and creating modularized design elements for space scheduling in real time using its interactive space scheduling function. In addition, operation level planning on earthwork can be conducted via the ability of the system to analyze haul routes in three dimensions and selecting the best equipment combination. It is expected that the proposed system could improve the efficiency of roadway construction planning.Key words: geographic information system (GIS), roadway construction planning, information integration, space scheduling.

Ancient architectures have always been of great interest to a variety of studies. In this analysis, the distribution of ancient architectures in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province is investigated. In each area of the distribution, the characteristic of the ancient architectures are recorded, such as story number, building materials, construction time, etc. The various types of information are then input into a GIS (Geographic Information System) database, which also contains some typical images of the ancient architectures. Some of the data are from GoogleEarth or archived CAD (Computer Aided Design) files. Consequently, the distribution and characteristic of ancient architectures are analyzed consulting the GIS map and attribute table. Although the ancient architectures are similar in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, there exist some notable differences. The commonness and differences would be significative for the preservation and planning for ancient architectures.

Hutan lebat Alas Purwo merupakan salah satu unsur penyusun bentang lahan karst yang memungkinkan mendukung kehidupan manusia masa Prasejarah. Data dari berbagai sumber menyebutkan, bahwa di Alas Purwo ditemukan tinggalan sisa budaya masa lalu lainnya. Selain itu, lokasiyang terisolasi memungkinkan diperolehnya data yang masih asli dan tidak banyak mengalami transformasi. Tujuan penelitian adalah pendataan potensi arkeologi dan etnohistori Alas Purwo dalam tiga dimensi, yaitu dimensi bentuk, ruang, dan waktu. Dengan demikian,dapat diperoleh kesimpulan sejarah budaya Semenanjung Blambangan. Metode penelitian bersifat eksploratif dengan tiga pendekatan, yaitu pendekatan arkeologi, pendekatan etnohistori, dan pendekatan geografi dengan perangkat Geographic Information System (GIS). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Semenanjung Blambangan memiliki nilai sejarah budaya cukup panjang dan penting. Hal ini terbukti dari lengkapnya tinggalan arkeologi serta etnohistori yang berasal dari masa Prasejarah, Klasik (Hindu), Islam, dan Kolonial yang menyimpan isu lokal, nasional, dan internasional. Secara spasial, pola distribusi tinggalan arkeologi tersebut memperlihatkan variasi mendasar, seperti lokasi yang khas. Abstract. Blambangan peninsula, known as Alas Purwo located in Banyuwangi. Alas Purwo, also means “early forest” in Javanese language, has a lot of archaeological potential, moreover the dense forest which is one of the constituent elements of the karst landscape enables support for human life in prehistoric era. Data from various sources says that in the Alas Purwo found the remains of the other past culture. In addition, isolated location provide opportunities for data that is pristine and not much transformed. The purpose of this research is to collect data of archaeological and ethno-history potency of Alas Purwo in three dimensions, which is: the dimensions of form, space, and time, in order to obtain a conclusionon the cultural history Blambangan Peninsula. The research methods is explorative with three approaches, archaeological approach, ethno-historical approach and geographical approach with the Geographic Information System (GIS). The research proves that Blambangan Peninsula has cultural history value as well. This result can be proved from complete archaeological and ethno-historical remains dating from the Prehistoric, Classical, Islam, and the Colonial era with local, national, and international issues. Spatially, the distribution pattern of the archaeological remains show fundamental variations, such as locational characteristics.

Nowadays, exploration management, increasing productivity, and reducing exploration costs are among the most important issues in the detailed exploration stage of orebodies. A geographic information system (GIS) is an effective tool for gathering, storing, analyzing, updating, generating, integrating, and displaying geographic data and land reference. ArcGIS is one of the efficient and powerful GIS computer programs with numerous capabilities such as generating databases, managing the data and information, integrating the information, and generating different outputs in the form of various maps, charts, and tables. In this study, different exploratory layers with different types of information from the Dehshir orebody area were integrated into this software to determine the spread of metal and introduce the parts with higher anomalies for subsurface exploration. For this purpose, we used the information from remote sensing, topography, geomorphology, geology, and geophysics, and geochemistry studies in the form of exploratory layers.

Coastal and Marine Geographic Information Systems (CMGISs) permit to collect, manage, and analyze a great amount of heterogeneous data concerning coastal, sea, and ocean environments, e.g., nautical charts, topographic maps, remotely sensed images. To integrate those heterogeneous layers in CMGIS, particular attention is necessary to ensure the perfect geo-localization of data, which is a basic requirement for the correct spatial analysis. In fact, the above-mentioned types of information sources are usually available in different cartographic projections, geodetic datum, and scale of representation. Therefore, automatic conversions supplied by Geographic Information System (GIS) software for layer overlay do not produce results with adequate positional accuracy. This paper aims to describe methodological aspects concerning different data integration in CMGIS in order to enhance its capability to handle topics of coastal and marine applications. Experiments are carried out to build a CMGIS of the Campania Region (Italy) harmonizing different data (maps and satellite images), which are heterogeneous for datum (World Geodetic System 1984 and European Datum 1950), projection (Mercator and Universal Transverse of Mercator), and scale of representation (large and medium scale). Results demonstrate that automatic conversion carried out by GIS software are insufficient to ensure levels of positional accuracy adequate for large scale representation. Therefore, additional operations such as those proposed in this work are necessary.

Suitable route planning is related to the safety and economy of navigation. However, route planning has become increasingly complex over the years and the planning process requires a large amount of oceanic environmental information. In order to use the oceanic environmental information effectively and improve the efficiency of route planning, this research employed a Geographic Information System (GIS) as the platform for enabling two-phase automatic route generation design. Firstly, through GIS's spatial data management, spatial analysis and geometric computation capability, the presence of the obstacle is detected and candidate routes are automatically generated. These are provided to the evolutionary algorithm as the basis for preliminary population calculation. Then, a specially designed evolutionary algorithm is used for route elimination to obtain the optimal route, resulting in the most-recommended routes that encompass safety and economy. This technique is more efficient than evolutionary computation techniques that use traditional random searches. At the same time, this targets safety and economy, providing a reference for developing a route planning strategy.

<p>Erupsi Gunungapi Merapi tahun 2010 mengakibatkan banyak korban jiwa, kerusakan aset dan kerugian di berbagai bidang. Untuk meminimalkan korban jiwa, kerusakan dan kerugian, diperlukan upaya pengurangan risiko bencana (PRB). Salah satu upaya yang dilakukan adalah program desa bersaudara (<em>sister village</em>) yang digagas oleh Pemerintah Kabupaten Magelang melalui Badan Penanggulangan Bencana Daerah (BPBD). Program desa bersaudara ini bertujuan agar ada kepastian tempat pengungsian, mengurangi kesemrawutan proses pengungsian serta memudahkan pelayanan pengungsi. Program ini dapat memanfaatan Sistem Informasi Geografis/<em>Geographic Information System</em> (GIS) yang berbasis web (<em>WebGIS</em>). <em>WebGIS</em> mampu mendiseminasikan peta yang dihasilkan dalam program desa bersaudara, misalnya peta jalur evakuasi. Makalah ini bertujuan untuk mendiskripsikan pemanfataan <em>WebGIS</em> dalam mendukung program desa bersaudara, dengan mengambil kasus di Desa Ngargomulyo (desa rawan bencana) dan Desa Tamanagung (desa penyangga/ penerima pengungsi). Metodenya adalah memaparkan proses pemetaan jalur evakuasi. Proses penyusunan peta tersebut terbagi empat tahap:   survei lapangan, penyiapan data spasial, coding dan publikasi. Hasilnya adalah tampilan peta jalur evakuasi yang bisa diakses oleh siapapun tanpa menggunakan aplikasi GIS yang memudahkan masyarakat pengungsi, penerima pengungsi, pemerintah maupun parapihak, mengetahui asal pengungsi, jalur evakuasi dan titik pengungsian. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa pemetaan <em>WebGIS</em> dapat mendukung upaya PRB dengan keunggulan bisa dijangkau pengguna secara sangat luas.<strong></strong></p><p><strong>Kata kunci</strong>: desa bersaudara, <em>sister village</em>, pemetaan jalur evakuasi, <em>gis</em>, <em>webgis</em></p>
