Indonesia is a country that has a high population density. The increasing population causes an increase in the demand for household needs. As time goes by, human needs are increasing day by day. Starting from primary needs to secondary needs. The city of Surabaya is the second largest metropolitan city after Jakarta with a population of around 2,874,314 people in 2020. With such a large number, of course, it has various kinds of demands to fulfill primary needs, Alfamart and Indomaret as the two largest retail companies in Indonesia are trying to be in the midst of Public. However, the uneven distribution of Alfamart and Indomaret locations causes the public to be often confused about their existence. To meet the need for information dissemination in that location, the system will be made based on mobile web so that the system can be accessed via a mobile smartphone device that is equipped with a GPS (Global Positioning System) so that it can find out the coordinates of the location of Alfamart and Indomaret, namely in the form of latitude and longitude data. This will make it easier for people who want to know the location and know the distance to the intended location and data by utilizing services from Open Camera and Google Maps.

Moped-style scooters are one of the most popular systems of micro-mobility. They are undoubtedly good for the city, as they promote forms of environmentally-friendly mobility, in which flexibility helps prevent traffic build-up in the urban centers where they operate. However, their increasing numbers are also generating conflicts as a result of the bad behavior of users, their unwarranted use in public spaces, and above all their parking. This paper proposes a methodology for finding parking spaces for shared motorcycle services using Geographic information system (GIS) location-allocation models and Global Positioning System (GPS) data. We used the center of Madrid and data from the company Muving (one of the city’s main operators) for our case study. As well as finding the location of parking spaces for motorbikes, our analysis examines how the varying distribution of demand over the course of the day affects the demand allocated to parking spaces. The results demonstrate how reserving a relatively small number of parking spaces for scooters makes it possible to capture over 70% of journeys in the catchment area. The daily variations in the distribution of demand slightly reduce the efficiency of the network of parking spaces in the morning and increase it at night, when demand is strongly focused on the most central areas.

The Automated Teller Machines (ATM) are used for cash withdrawals. Meanwhile as ATM lacks security, thefts occurring in the ATMs are also high. Our proposed system minimizes those break-ins occurring in the ATM’s by instigating a low cost standalone embedded sys-tem using Arduino Microcontroller. This system is proposed for ATM security, comprising of the components namely RGB tag, Global System for Mobile communication (GSM), Global Positioning System (GPS), Virtual Keyboard and camera. Authentication by virtual keyboard thus helps the public to protect their credentials from being captured by malicious bots, key loggers and spyware. Whenever theft occurs, Buzzer makes an alarm, DC Motor turns ON and the door of ATM is closed. The nearby police station and corresponding bank authorities is alerted by the GSM Modem that sends messages along with the location. This will prevent the robberies and the person in-volving in the robbery can be easily caught. In short, it discusses the methods that are used to detect the venture, initiate preemptive measures and forewarn the officials through GSM network. This system thus heightens the safety of ATM users as well as the ATM’s against forthcoming attacks effectively.

The number of smart phones that are supported by location facility like Global Positioning System (GPS), Camera and connected to the internet has increased sharply in UAE during the last five years. This increase offers a chance to capitalize on using these devices as resources for data collection, therefore reducing cost. In many cases specific events may happen in areas or at time where there may be no governmental departments to collect such unrepeated events. The current research will showcase various studies that had been conducted on Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) debating various aspects such as accuracy, legal issues, and privacy. This research will also integrate Geographic Information System (GIS), VGI, social media tools, data mining, and mobile technology to design a conceptual framework for promoting public participation in UAE. The data gathered through survey will be helpful in correlating various aspects of VGI. Since there are diverse views about these aspects, policy makers are left undecided in many countries about how to deal with VGI. The assessment of the UAE case will contribute to the age-long debate by examining the willingness of the public to participate. The result will show the public perception to be as sensors for data collection. Additionally, the potential of citizen involvement in the risk and disaster management process by providing voluntary data collected for VGI applications will also be explored in the paper.

Underground infrastructure mapping in many urban areas lacks the necessary accuracy and detail required to conduct underground construction. This is a result of inadequate surveying methodologies and poor historical as-built records. One solution to this problem is the development of a mobile terrestrial photogrammetric mapping system to expose utilities on construction sites. This thesis outlines the design of the Underground Infrastructure Mapping System (UIMS). The system is comprised of three pieces of hardware including a tablet PC, a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, and a digital camera. Results indicte that the UIMS has an absolute spatial accuracy of 28 cm (within the City of Toronto) and a relative accuracy of 13 cm (95% confidence level). The data collection time per exposed utility feature is approximtely ten minutes on site, and an additional five minutes of post-processing. The cost of the system's hardware is under $5000.

The aim of this study was to identify the characteristics of the routes used for cycling according to gender on a sample of adolescents from the city of Curitiba, Brazil. The study was conducted in 2013 with 147  adolescents aged 12 to 17 years, who wore accelerometer and Global Positioning System receivers to assess physical activity and geographic locations. A total of 38 participants (50.0% girls) presented at least one bicycle route and were included in the analytic sample. A total of 386 routes were identified. Nearly all routes included public transportation facilities, plazas, and parcels with residential, retail, food or recreational land use (> 97.0%) while bike lanes/paths (62.7%) and Fitness Zones were less frequent (71.8%). Bus rapid transit (BRT) stations, parks and vacant lots were the least frequent feature in the routes (37.3%; 17.1%; and 7.5%, respectively). Routes used by girls had fewer vacant lots (3.9%; p = 0.001) and more residential, retail, food services, and recreational uses (99.6%; p = 0.003; 99.1%; p = 0.011; 98.7%; p = 0.030, respectively) than those used by boys. The findings suggest that the routes used by adolescents have mixed and diverse land use and girls ride along routes with greater bicycling and service infrastructure and less physical disorder than boys.

In developing countries, road maintenance is a major problem. The country's economy relies significantly on public transit. Driving a vehicle on a badly maintained road is very dangerous. Rain causes the road's oil-spill quality to degrade. Car accidents may occur as a result of such obstacles. To solve this problem, we have developed a project that we believe would be of the most use to the public. The project's main aim is to automatically detect and report potholes. This article discusses a cost-effective method for detecting potholes and speed bumps on roadways, as well as giving timely warnings to drivers to assist them avoid accidents or vehicle damage. Potholes and humps are detected using ultrasonic sensors, which may also be utilised to assess their depth and height. A global positioning system receiver is used in the proposed system to record the geographic locations of potholes and speed bumps. Some of the discovered data in the database include pothole depth, hump height, and geographic location. This is a valuable resource for both government officials and motorists. As an alert, flash messages with an audible buzzer are used.

During the course of its development for military use and more recent extension to many civilian uses, vulnerabilities of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) – in the United States the Global Positioning System (GPS) – have become apparent. The vulnerabilities arise from natural, intentional, and unintentional sources. Increasing civilian and military reliance on GNSS brings with it a vital need to identify the critical vulnerabilities to civilian users, and to develop a plan to mitigate these vulnerabilities. This paper summarizes the findings of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) vulnerability study that addresses these issues. The key findings are that satellite navigation users are vulnerable to several classes of disruption that affect all transportation modes and related infrastructure; but also that the vulnerabilities can be mitigated by awareness, planning, and using independent backup systems and/or alternate procedures in safety-critical applications. To gain the full benefits of GNSS, it will be necessary to analyse safety-of-life vulnerabilities in detail, and to determine the means and costs of reducing these risks to acceptable levels. The complete assessment report, of which this paper is a synopsis, was released to the public on September 10, 2001. Although the basic findings apply to all GNSS, the assessment focused on the GPS, in response to the enabling Presidential Decision Directive.

Aerial or satellite images are conventionally used for geospatial data collection and in producing a topographic map. The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) technology such as drone has developed by providing very high spatial and temporal resolution data at a lower cost. Nowadays, drones not only use for military purpose but also been utilized widely by the public community for mapping, monitoring, video capturing activities and as a hobby. This present study focuses on the utilization of drone technology to produce a digital map of UMK Jeli Campus. The objective of this study is to access the capability and the accuracy of the drone in producing a digital map. Parrot ANAFI and DJI FC6310 devices were used as a platform to acquire digital images of the study area. After capturing the digital images, ground control points were established with the aid of a handheld global positioning system (GPS) device. Images were processed using Agisoft Photos can software to produce a digital map of UMK Jeli Campus. This study shows that UAV can be used for producing a digital map at sub-meter accuracy and it can also be used for diversified applications.
