Protest Activity

Digital technologies have contributed to the formation of a new theoretical and methodological approach to the study of society and they influenced the development of a new branch of knowledge i.e. digital sociology. The purpose of this article is to analyze the opportunity of using a geographic information system (ArcGIS) for the analysis of statistical data of the facts of protests which took place in Rostov Region over the past ten years (2009–2018). Street protests, rallies, demonstrations, strikes are the main barometer of the social and political tension of a society, an important indicator of the existence of social problems and contradictions that require solutions. The article provides an overview of existing databases, the methodology for the creation of the geographic information system “Protest activity of Rostov region” and the opportunity of its use, which generally depend on research goals and objectives. This product allows identifying the structure of social protest, its qualitative and quantitative characteristics, its dynamics in time and space with the visualization of the main trends and so on. The visualization of the centers of the social and political tension in the form of ready made electronic maps contributes to deeper understanding of political, social, economic or environmental processes that take place in the Don region at different times. The authors draw the conclusion that the GIS developed for this research provides an opportunity to identify latent threats and risks that can destabilize the social situation in Rostov region, and accordingly adjust the regional policy. The geographic information system “Protest activity of Rostov region” can be used both by researchers and experts from a wide range of scientific organizations and by authorities of various administrative levels.

Areal data have been used to good effect in a wide range of sociological research. One of the most persistent problems associated with this type of data, however, is the need to combine data sets with incongruous boundaries. To help address this problem, we introduce a new method for identifying common geographies. We show that identifying common geographies is equivalent to identifying components within a k-uniform k-partite hypergraph. This approach can be easily implemented using a geographic information system in conjunction with a simple search algorithm.

With the development and application of information technology, the digitization of information management and the virtualization of physical models have become very important technical application fields in the world. The establishment of the 3D landscape model and the realization of the 3D geographic information system (GIS) are based on this, and there is not only a wide range of development prospects in many aspects such as urban planning and management, planning and design, local government construction, housing industry development, land monitoring and management, and environmental monitoring and evaluation. There are not only research studies and formulations but also a practical significance in other analysis, evaluation, decision making, and other departments. In recent years, the research of 3D city modeling has been developed rapidly, and most of the existing 2D-GIS can be transformed into 3D visual landscape. Based on the three-dimensional geographic information system and desktop drawing software AutoCAD, this paper takes the two-dimensional line drawing (DLG) of a residential district as the base map, expounds the design process of the three-dimensional simulation model of the urban community from the aspects of map preprocessing, building simulation model construction, texture mapping, and virtual visualization, and discusses the problems encountered in it. The main contributions of this paper are that this technology puts forward a new solution for the integrated corridor operation and maintenance management, greatly improves the intelligent management level of the integrated corridor operation and maintenance work, and simplifies the complex integrated corridor operation and maintenance management. It is helpful to improve the work efficiency of operation and maintenance, reduce the dependence of personnel, and respond to the long-term construction needs of the smart city at the same time.

Correct assessment of river flow is necessary to resolve a wide range of problems in the management and use of water resources. Recently, research towards the use of geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph (GIUH) coupled with other conceptual models approach for flood prediction from ungauged catchments has been intensified. Widespread accessibility to geographic information system and remotely sensed imagery which are powerful tools for acquiring model inputs is one possible reason. This study, therefore, aims at direct surface runoff (DSRO) prediction using the geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph based Nash model (GIUH-Nash) from ungauged catchment. DEM obtained from Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) having 30 m resolution is used to generate the catchment’s physiographic and geomorphologic characteristics with the help of quantum geographic information system (QGIS). Based on this information, the GIUH-Nash model is used to simulate DSRO for different storm events. A visual comparison of observed values to predicted values of the runoff hydrographs as well as statistical indices shows that DSRO could be predicted with reasonable accuracy provided complete understanding of the model development and it’s evaluation procedures are properly followed. In respect of this, some key aspects that affect the performance of the model have been suggested.

AbstractThis study critiques the China Historical Geographic Information System in terms of its failure to distinguish between regions of Chinese civilisation that were directly incorporated into an imperial field administration and Inner Asian regions under indigenous polities. Although the focus of this study is on eastern Tibet, specifically China’s southwestern Tibetan Frontier in Sichuan, the general methodological approach employed is relevant to the entire Inner Asian cultural region. Despite China’s long history, only some eastern Tibetan communities located along the transition zone between the eastern Tibetan Plateau and agrarian China were integrated into the traditional Chinese field administration. Most of this expansion occurred during the last dynasty known as the Qing or Manchu, c. 1644–1911.

Tourism Potential

Tourism is very important in sustaining local income. Tourism Department also required to develop tourism in the region, so as to attract tourists to visit the tourist attractions there. False one that should be developed is a geographic information system for the geographic information system of the tourists easily find tourist attractions. Ende, Flores Island is located in the central part has a beautiful natural scenery both sea and land, as well as tourism. Ende is known for a wide range of fascinating natural attractions, but the tourism potential has not been known by tourists who want to visit, because the Department of Tourism Ende in promoting tourist places are still using manual systems such as brochures, posters and books. Media is not sufficient to inform the tourist attractions widely. Because the Department of Ende requires an adequate promotional media such as web GIS so that travel is better known by local and foreign tourists. Researchers aim to build a location information system applications Ende tourism web based making it easier for travelers to find tourist spots in the district of Ende. Based on the above problems, the writer intend to design and build an information system of tourist sites in the district of Ende-based web, to help the Department of Tourism Ende in promoting tourist places in the district of Ende.
