 Español:Resumen. En los últimos años, el crecimiento de la población en las áreas urbanas de las ciudades de Latinoamérica ha causado aumento en la demanda eléctrica de manera dispersa, trayendo desafíos a la planificación de los sistemas de distribución, para satisfacer esta demanda. Además, los incentivos para instalación de generación distribuida hacen necesario realizar análisis con perspectiva espacial para determinar los lugares de mayor impacto en las redes de distribución eléctrica. Los sistemas de información geográfica son herramientas computacionales que permiten el procesamiento de datos con referencia geográfica. Estos sistemas pueden colaborar en la visualización de las características socioeconómicas y las variables distribuidas en la zona de estudio, proporcionando informaciones a los planificadores de distribución. Este trabajo muestra herramientas computacionales que ayudarán a las empresas de distribución, utilizando técnicas disponibles en sistemas de información geográfica para caracterizar las particularidades locales, en la zona de concesión, de las empresas de distribución.English:Abstract.

Nos últimos anos, o crescimento da população nas áreas urbanas das cidades de Latino América, resultou no aumento da demanda elétrica de forma dispersa, trazendo desafios ao planejamento de sistemas de distribuição para atender essa demanda. Além disso, incentivos para a instalação de geração distribuída tornam necessária a realização de análises com caráter espacial para determinar os locais de maior impacto nas redes de distribuição de energia. Os sistemas de informação geográfica são ferramentas computacionais que permitem o processamento de dados com referência geográfica. Esses sistemas podem colaborar na visualização das características socioeconômicas e das variáveis distribuídas na zona de estudo, podendo fornecer informações aos planejadores de distribuição. Este trabalho mostra ferramentas computacionais que ajudarão os serviços de distribuição, usando técnicas disponíveis em sistemas de informação geográfica para caracterizar os fatores locais da zona de concessão dos serviços de distribuição.

The purpose of the article is to present various adverse events that may occur in connection with the loading, unloading and transport of dangerous substances. The focus was on finding the reasons for their formation and an analysis of the quantity and structure of the goods transported was carried out. It also describes the possibility of using the geographical information system, with particular regard to the risk situation during the transport of such substances.

Il CD-ROM raccoglie i contributi del terzo incontro fiorentino Beni ambientali e culturali e Geographical Information Systems (giugno 2002) che, come quelli degli anni passati, hanno come oggetto applicazioni basate su GIS e relative a beni archeologici, culturali, ambientali. Verranno proposte metodologie di acquisizione delle fonti, di gestione delle informazioni e di analisi dei dati idonee alla tipologia dei beni studiati. Ad unire i contributi è stato scelto, quest'anno, il tema GIS e Internet. ______________________________________________

A review of practice in hurricane evacuation modeling reveals that the criteria determining the delineation of hurricane evacuation zones have not been clearly defined. In addition, there is no recommended procedure with which to establish hurricane evacuation zones once criteria have been accepted. A set of criteria has been adopted in this paper to design a procedure that mechanically establishes a recommended set of hurricane evacuation zones for an area. The procedure, which is based on a geographic information systems platform, is described, and its use is demonstrated for establishing hurricane evacuation zones for the northern part of the New Orleans, Louisiana, metropolitan area on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain. The procedure can be applied to any area, and although it is specifically directed at identifying evacuation zones for hurricanes, it could be used for any emergency in which flooding is the major hazard, or it could be adapted to other emergency situations for which evacuation is an appropriate response.

Geographical information systems as a methodology is a relatively new technology in scientific research and finding practical solutions for geographical problems. One of those problems is the complex over categorical set [1] known as environment. It is a very actual and complex problematic, hard for organizing and optimization when it has to set about the needs of humanity.Therefore, this article deals with the application of geographic information systems as one of the latest scien-tific techniques and technologies through which one can analyze and define the most optimal solutions in terms of environmental protection and sustainable development.The aim is to highlight the quantitative and qualitative aspects of GIS technology in function of the environ-ment on the one hand, and through concrete examples to point out to the power of these technologies in the process of finding optimal solutions. It is briefly pointed out to some general criteria that are inevitable in the process of creating databases in GIS necessary for adequate and suitable GIS analyses.

Geographic Information System Technology (GIS) / Geographic Information System (GIS) is a technological information system regarding geography that is very developed up to the present. Geographic Information Systems have a very good ability in visualizing spatial data and its attributes, modifying shapes, colors, sizes, and symbols. GIS can be used by various fields of science, work, and events. Along with the advancement of information technology in the modern era, government services to the public must adapt to the demands of the times. Creativity and innovation as a form of service to the community are absolute and very necessary and one of them is by providing information technology-based services. The Office of Religious Affairs is an office that carries out part of the duties of the Indonesian Ministry of Religion office in the regencies and municipalities in the field of Islamic religious affairs within the sub-district. The purpose of this research is to improve the management of waqf assets by displaying the geographical locations of waqf land assets so that it is easier to monitor waqf assets so that their utilization can be maximized through the geographical information system at the Cikupa District Religious Affairs Office. Endowments are assets of the people who must be saved, managed well, and developed for useful purposes. The system analysis method used is PIECES which consists of Performance, Information, Economy, Control, Efficiency and Service. Unified modeling Language (UML) as a tool to analyze system rocedures that are running. With a geographic information system monitoring waqf land assets can display waqf assets contained in Cikupa District by displaying the location of waqf land through digital maps contained in geographic information systems. Keywords: Systems, Monitoring, Endowments, Geographical.

AbstractFrom the beginning of human existence, man collected and analysed information about the space that surrounded him. Nowadays, due to the huge amount of data, it would be impossible without geographic information systems. According to the definition, the main function of GIS (Geographic Information Systems) is to collect, process, integrate, analyse and present data directly collected in the database or obtained through analysis. The basis of each information system’s functioning is the collection of relevant data about real-world objects, in terms of their completeness, quality and reliability. Due to the very rapid development of information technology, GIS systems have found a wide application, eg. in spatial planning, real estate management, administration, infrastructure management and many other areas of life. The authors within the article have made a detailed review of the current using of GIS, with particular emphasis on the mining industry. In the latter, particular attention was focused on the use of this type of tools to monitor and analyse the effects of mining activities. At the same time, the authors indicated new possibilities related to the application of geographic information systems in this branch.
