The present study is concerned with the management of multi-thematic geo-data of Cephallonia Island, related to crustal deformation. A large amount of heterogeneous data (vector, raster, ascii files) involving geology, tectonics, topography, geomorphology and DGPS measurements was compiled. Crustal deformation was studied using GPS network consisting of '23 stations. This was installed and measured in October 2001 and re-measured during September 2003 following the Lefkas earthquake of August 2003 (Mw=6.2), and also in July 2006. With proper spatial analysis, a large number of thematic and synthetic layers and maps were produced. Simultaneously, a GIS Data base was organized in order to make an easy extraction of conclusions in specific questions.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In recent years, the digitization of historical data related to the architectural heritage and the development of ICT-based methodologies applied to cultural goods have become increasingly relevant. In this context, the use of GIS (Geographical Information System) is growing significantly, with the aim of collecting, analysing and managing heterogeneous data in a spatial context. Given such premise, the site identified for this case-study is a historical Italian Garden into the Villa Buonaccorsi in Potenza Picena (MC, Italy). The project aims at creating a methodology, that organizing natural and artificial elements in the GIS, to support management and planning of this landscape architecture, considering also the changes during the time. A suitable GIS can promote and ensure a correct use of the heritage knowledge, preserving the historical identity, overlaying the data. The data management system, specifically developed for this case, is based on an open source GIS, where surveyed data coming from different sources and the relation to the attributes have been descripted in a conceptual model. The inventory of this geodatabase, in a dedicated GIS, has allowed to perform some queries, making in output a dialogue box with all the information, in form of report, useful to the manager of a historical garden. The structure of the GIS can significantly to help who works with similar cases and it can be useful for analysis, management, storage and integration of information related to Italian gardens.</p>

Latar belakang: Pelaksanaan handover di RS berkiatan erat dengan dengan peran perawat dalam menggunakan metode pada saat pergantian shift. Oleh karena itu, untuk meningkatkan komunikasi diantara perawat dibutuhkan metode-metode yang efektif dalam metode-melakukan handover. Adapun metode yang digunakan adalah verbal, dengan catatan, melalui telepon dan SBAR. Metode: Penelusuran literature data base dari EBSCO, sciendirect, google search dan PubMed dari tahun 2005-2015 dilakukan menggunakan advanced search keyword yang dipilih dalam pencarian adalah handover communication, patien savety. Pencarian dibatasi pada tahun 2005-2015, full text, dan harus yang berbahasa inggris. Setelah dilakukan search ditemukan 171 artikel pada sciendirect, 23 artikel pada PubMed, dan 32 artikel pada ebscho dan yang sesuai dengan kriteria inklusi adalah 6 artikel. 6 artikel tersebut sesuai dengan kriteria study yaitu RCTs, Cohor, Case Study dan Systematic Review. Responden dalam artikel ini adalah perawat yang melakukan handover. Intervensi yang dilakukan adalah metode-metode handover. Outcome meningkatkan komunikasi antar perawat. Hasil: temuan berupa 6 artikel hasil pembahasan menunjukan bahwa metode handover dengan SBAR sangat efektif untuk meningkatkan komunikasi antar perawat. Kesimpulan: Metode SBAR sangat efektif digunakan dalam handover. Dengan metode ini, dapat mengoptimalkan komunikasi antar perawat dalam melakukan handover di setiap pergantian shif.

This paper demonstrates the statistical approach for describing failures and lifetimes of water mains. The statistical approach is based on pipe inventory data and the maintenance data registered in the data base. The approach consists of data pre-processing and statistical analysis. Two classes of statistical models are applied, namely counting process models and lifetime models. With lifetime models, one can estimate the probability which a pipe will fail within a time horizon. With counting process models one can see the deteriorating (or improving) trend in time of a group of “identical” pipes and their rates of occurrence of failure (ROCOF). The case study with the data base from Trondheim municipality (Norway) demonstrates the applicability of the statistical approach and leads to the following results: 1). In the past 20 years, Trondheim municipality has experienced approximately 250 to 300 failures per year. However, the number of failures per year will significantly increase in the near future unless better maintenance practice is implemented now. 2). Unprotected ductile iron pipes have a higher probability of failures than other materials. The average lifetime of unprotected ductile iron pipes is approximately 30 to 40 years shorter than the lifetime of a cast iron pipe. 3). Pipes installed 1963 and 1975 are most likely to fail in the future; 4) The age of a pipe does not play a significant role for the remaining lifetime of the pipe; 5). After 2 to 3 failures, a pipe enters a fast-failure stage (i.e., frequent multiple between failures).

The City

Providing citizens with the ability to move around in an accessible way is a requirement for all cities today. However, modeling city infrastructures so that accessible routes can be computed is a challenge because it involves collecting information from multiple, large-scale and heterogeneous data sources. In this paper, we propose and validate the architecture of an information system that creates an accessibility data model for cities by ingesting data from different types of sources and provides an application that can be used by people with different abilities to compute accessible routes. The article describes the processes that allow building a network of pedestrian infrastructures from the OpenStreetMap information (i.e., sidewalks and pedestrian crossings), improving the network with information extracted obtained from mobile-sensed LiDAR data (i.e., ramps, steps, and pedestrian crossings), detecting obstacles using volunteered information collected from the hardware sensors of the mobile devices of the citizens (i.e., ramps and steps), and detecting accessibility problems with software sensors in social networks (i.e., Twitter). The information system is validated through its application in a case study in the city of Vigo (Spain).
