<p class="FormatUI"><em>A train is a mass transportation means that can carry passengers or goods on a large scale, so that the Indonesian people use it as a means of transportation both within cities and intercity/ Along with this, the train station is the main requirement needed in the movement of the rail transportation mode. Apart from the main function of the station as a place for passengers to get on or off, stations can be developed into centers of urban activities by maximizing the use of space at the station and the utilization of the surrounding space which is integrated with the development of properties high density and other supporting facilities. To realize this, an effort is needed to maximize the potential for station development through the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) approach. The development of TOD at a railway station can create an ideal distance or radius from a transportation node to occupancy, creating lower cost, time and energy efficiency so as to improve the quality of life in urban areas, and it is hoped that it can reduce the maintenance costs of the station itself through additional functions that can generate revenue. In order to optimize the function of railway stations, especially in urban areas, this study was conducted to create a concept for regional development with the concept of TOD based on railway stations. This study used a qualitative approach with the study area located in Banten Province (outside the BPTJ working area), and data collection was carried out using purposive sampling method. The result is a station that has the potential to be developed into a transit-based area in Banten Province is the Serang Station</em><em>.</em></p>

Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is believed to be able to overcome the issues of urban transport. However, in practice, the current TOD in Jakarta  Metropolitan Region (JMR) is still a deficiency in accommodating the needs of transportation movement and not in facilitating services in terms of TOD function. The objective of this paper was to re-assess the service quality of actual TOD in 54 commuter railway stations. The paper performed criteria-indicators and measured a composite TOD index by using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)-multicriteria model, statistics test, and Geographical Information System (GIS) application. TOD index was found that urban areas have a high TOD index. On the other hand, the suburban areas have a low TOD-index. The statistical test showed that there was a strong correlation between different criteria. This paper concluded that most of the stations which were located in the suburban area had a low index thus need improvement. Consequently, the station areas needed to have a policy relevance.

The present article presents the expertise realized by the Department of Environmental Monitoring Pollution Evaluation within the INCD ECOIND, in the evaluation of the quality of urban soils in the municipality of Bucharest and the main big cities in Romania. The current data available at the level of the 27 member states of the European Union show that annually over 100,000 hectares of land are introduced into the urban environment, a direct consequence of the development of cities. There are a number of legislative obstacles to strategic soil protection measures. Moreover, at the level of the local authorities there is a conflict regarding the measures of soil protection in the long term, on the one hand, and, the accelerated economic development in the short term, on the other. European environmental experts consider that the urban development, absolutely necessary for the economic growth, requires an adequate management of the natural resources in order for the development to be done on a sustainable basis, respectively to follow a series of strategic objectives. In our country, at least in the last decade, we find on a large scale the conversion of industrial areas into commercial or residential areas. The footprint of industrial activities can be found even after long periods of time present by identifying the remnant of soil pollution or in those areas known as historically polluted (for example the town of Copsa Mica). The conclusions stemming from the assessment of pollution in urban areas over large areas, in correlation with the potential sources of pollution, underline the need to monitor the quality of soils in the urban environment, but also to apply a performance management in order to protect this natural resource in the long term.

Nature and human-made hazards, like hurricanes, inundations, terroristic attacks or in- cidents in nuclear power plants, make it necessary to evacuate large urban areas in a short time. So far, the consideration of railway transportation is rarely part of the evacuation strategies. One of the reasons is the unknown capacity of this infrastructure.In the case of hurricanes Katrina and Rita (USA) the evacuation was accomplished with pri- vate vehicles and buses. In Germany, especially in the conurbation of Nordrhein-Westfalen, where many roads are overloaded during the daily rush hours, it will not be possible to use only road dependent vehicles like private cars or busses to evacuate a large number of people into save areas.After the nuclear power plant disaster of Fukushima, the working group ‘AG Fukushima’ was founded, which recommends the use of trains for large-scale emergency evacuations. However, it is not clear if the capacity of train stations is enough to handle these large evacuations in time. Hence, this work deals with the question of how the capacity of train stations can be quantified and optimised for this application. In order to estimate the capacity of train stations we use and further develop the Ju ̈lich Pedestrian Simula- tor (JuPedSim), a software for pedestrian dynamics simulations. Therefore, a model of a train station is built in JuPedSim and several parameters like the inflow and outflow of the pedestrians are examined, to find the best routing strategy and organisational ac- tions inside the station. The focus of this contribution lies in the identification of critical bottlenecks. An estimation of which parameters are influencing congestion at these bottle- necks is presented. Additionally, organisational strategies are outlined, which can prevent congestion and increase the capacity of a train station.

Abstract. Nowadays, high-resolution fused satellite imagery is widely used in multiple remote sensing applications. Although the spectral quality of pan-sharpened images plays an important role in many applications, spatial quality becomes more important in numerous cases. The high spatial quality of the fused image is essential for extraction, identification and reconstruction of significant image objects, and will result in producing high-quality large scale maps especially in the urban areas. This paper introduces the most sensitive and effective methods in detecting the spatial distortion of fused images by implementing a number of spatial quality assessment indices that are utilized in the field of remote sensing and image processing. In this regard, in order to recognize the ability of quality assessment indices for detecting the spatial distortion quantity of fused images, input images of the fusion process are affected by some intentional spatial distortions based on non-registration error. The capabilities of the investigated metrics are evaluated on four different fused images derived from Ikonos and WorldView-2 initial images. Achieved results obviously explicate that two methods namely Edge Variance Distortion and the spatial component of QNR metric called Ds are more sensitive and responsive to the imported errors.

The ability to model the surrounding space and determine which areas are occupied is of key importance in many robotic applications, ranging from grasping and manipulation to path planning and obstacle avoidance. Occupancy modeling is often hindered by several factors, such as: real-time constraints, that require quick updates and access to estimates; quality of available data, that may contain gaps and partial occlusions; and memory requirements, especially for large-scale environments. In this work we propose a novel framework that elegantly addresses all these issues, by producing an efficient non-stationary continuous occupancy function that can be efficiently queried at arbitrary resolutions. Furthermore, we introduce techniques that allow the learning of individual features for different areas of the input space, that are better able to model its contained information and promote a higher-level understanding of the observed scene. Experimental tests were conducted on both simulated and real large-scale datasets, showing how the proposed framework rivals current state-of-the-art techniques in terms of computational speed while achieving a substantial decrease (of orders of magnitude) in memory requirements and demonstrating better interpolative powers, that are able to smooth out sparse and noisy information.

Abstract. Mobile laser scanning (MLS) data are widely used for solving various tasks. To be sure that these data are appropriate for a specific task it is necessary to adjust data with a certain accuracy. Large scale topographic mapping is one from the tasks often solved by MLS data. Necessary accuracy of creating topographic plans is determined with a requirements document. Topographic plans are always created in a certain coordinate system. For this reason, MLS data should be previously transformed in the required one. For transformation control points measured with other more accurate methods should be applied. The quantity of necessary control points depends on a surveying area. For urban areas a lot of control points are required due to bad quality of GNSS signal. Much research has been conducted for these areas. For areas with open view of the sky it is required significantly fewer control points. Moreover, there are not so many vertical objects in areas with open view of the sky. Large errors can take place in the result of automatic adjustment of point cloud’s multi-passes. The results of both relative and absolute MLS data adjustment are given for the area with a good GNSS signal. The paper presents the results of accuracy estimation with different quantity of control points. The main goal of the paper is to determine the minimum number of control points for MLS data to be appropriate for creating topographic plans at a scale of 1:500 with a contour interval of 0.25 m.

Cerebrovascular diseases are a problem of the world today, and according to the forecast, the problem of the near future arises. The main risk factors for the development of ischemic disorders of the cerebral circulation include oblique and aging, arterial hypertension, smoking, diabetes mellitus and heart disease. An effective strategy for the prevention of cerebrovascular events is based on the implementation of large-scale risk control measures, including the use of antiagregant and anticoagulant therapy, invasive interventions such as atheromectomy, angioplasty and stenting. In this connection, the efforts of neurologists, cardiologists, angiosurgery, endocrinologists and other specialists are the basis for achieving an acceptable clinical outcome. A review of the SF-36 method for assessing the quality of life in patients with the effects of transient ischemic stroke is presented. The assessment of quality of life is recognized in world medical practice and research, an indicator that is also used to assess the quality of the health system and in general sociological research.

From earliest cities to the present, spatial division into residential zones and neighbourhoods is the universal feature of urban areas. This study explored issue of measuring neighbourhoods through spatial autocorrelation method based on Moran's I index in respect of achieving to best neighbourhoods' model for forming cities smarter. The research carried out by selection of 35 neighbourhoods only within central part of traditional city of Kerman in Iran. The results illustrate, 75% of neighbourhoods' area in the inner city of Kerman had clustered pattern, and it shows reduction in Moran's index is associated with disproportional distribution of density and increasing in Moran's I and Z-score have monotonic relation with more dense areas and clustered pattern. It may be more efficient for urban planner to focus on spatial autocorrelation to foster neighbourhood cohesion rather than emphasis on suburban area. It is recommended characteristics of historic neighbourhoods can be successfully linked to redevelopment plans toward making city smarter, and also people's quality of life can be related to the way that neighbourhoods' patterns are defined.

Subject. The article considers functioning and development of process flows of transportation and logistics system of a smart city. Objectives. The study identifies factors and dependencies of the quality of human life on the organization and management of stream processes. Methods. I perform a comparative analysis of previous studies, taking into account the uniquely designed results, and the econometric analysis. Results. The study builds multiple regression models that are associated with stream processes, highlights interdependent indicators of temporary traffic and pollution that affect the indicator of life quality. However, the identified congestion indicator enables to predict the time spent in traffic jams per year for all participants of stream processes. Conclusions. The introduction of modern intelligent transportation systems as a component of the transportation and logistics system of a smart city does not fully solve the problems of congestion in cities at the current rate of urbanization and motorization. A viable solution is to develop cooperative and autonomous intelligent transportation systems based on the logistics approach. This will ensure control over congestion, the reduction of which will contribute to improving the life quality of people in urban areas.
