This paper is composed of two parts dealing with the modeling of environmental phenomena. The first part presents the traditional ER and OO formalisms dedicated to geographic information modeling. These languages focus mainly on representing the spatial and temporal properties of this type of information. Many of these languages express these properties visually by using pictograms. After a quick historical presentation of the languages, the authors show the various types of spatiality and temporality usually encountered in these languages. Often qualified as primitive, some of these spatialities and temporalities are simple. Others, which are more complex, result from combinations of simple spatialities and simple temporalities. Still others are used in very specific situations encountered during the development of geographical information systems. These different spatialities and temporalities are presented via examples provided in the field of environmental dynamics.

O meio ambiente e todos os aspectos relacionados ao seu uso, conservação e proteção estão sendo cada vez mais objeto de discussão. Para que a gestão pública obtenha bons resultados na proteção de recursos naturais, é fundamental o uso de tecnologias associadas à administração. Os Sistemas de Informações Geográficas (SIGs) possibilitam integrar bases de dados administrativos de municípios a bases cartográficas, permitindo maior agilidade na tomada de decisões a preservação de recursos. As múltiplas análises passíveis de execução em um SIG levam, em conjunto, a melhor gestão de uma grande massa de dados. Com tal visão, foi desenvolvido o projeto de extensão “SIG e Gestão Pública: Interação Universidade-Administração” do qual foram apresentadas aqui algumas experiências vivenciadas durante seu período de execução (2016-2017). Os objetivos do projeto foram: capacitar gestores públicos (prioritariamente), estudantes universitários e população em geral quanto à aplicação do SIG (SPRING); promover a troca de experiências das diferentes aplicações do Software na administração pública; assessorar gestores públicos na tomada de decisões, e incentivar a disponibilização de dados e resultados técnicos para novos estudos. As atividades presenciais foram realizadas nas dependências do Campus Central da UNESP de Ilha Solteira/SP e incluíram workshops e exercícios práticos com SIG. Merecem destaque a assiduidade e a avaliação final positiva dos participantes (em 2016 e 2017), as iniciativas de trocas de experiências entre eles, e a busca por novas soluções de obtenção e tratamento de dados e seu compartilhamento. As trocas de experiências e a busca por novas soluções foram as razões de maior interação entre os cursistas, e entre eles e a equipe que desenvolveu o curso.

To achieve good results in public management of natural resources, the use of technologies associated with the administration is essential. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) make it possible to integrate administrative databases of municipalities to cartographic databases, allowing greater flexibility in decision-making resource conservation. The multiple analyzes that can be executed in a GIS lead, together, the best management for a large amount of data. With this in mind, was developed the extension project "GIS and Public Management: University-Administration Interaction", which are presented here some experiences during its execution period (2016-2017). The objectives of the project were: to train public managers (primarily), University's students and the average population about the application of GIS (SPRING); to promote the exchange of experiences of different applications of the Software in the public administration; advise public managers on decision making and encourage the provision of data and technical results for further studies. The classroom activities were held on the premises of the UNESP Campus at Ilha Solteira - SP and included workshops and practical exercises with GIS. It is worth noting the assiduity and the positive final evaluation of all participants (in 2016 and 2017), the will to exchange experiences and the search for new ways of data acquisition and processing solutions, as well as sharing it. The experience exchange and the search for new solutions were the most critical factors in the interaction between the students and the team that developed the course.

It is recognized that 80% of data have a spatial component (ex. street address, place name, geographic coordinates, map coordinates). Having the possibilities to display data on maps, to compare maps of different phenomena or epochs, and to combine maps with tables and statistical charts allows one to get more insights into spatial datasets. Furthermore, performing fast spatio-temporal analysis, interactively exploring the data by drilling on maps similarly to drilling on tables and charts, and easily synchronizing such operations among these views is nowadays required by more and more users. This can be done by combining Geographical Information Systems (GIS) with On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP), paving the way to “SOLAP” (Spatial OLAP). The present chapter focuses on the spatial characteristics of SOLAP from a geomatics engineering point of view: concepts, architectures, tools and remaining challenges.

The article presents the results of the analysis of the spatio-temporal variability of the processes of diffusion of innovations in the agricultural sector of the Russian Federation by subjects. The application of a group of traditional and mathematical methods in the research process is complemented by the widespread use of the capabilities of geoinformation technologies and, first of all, geoinformation-cartographic modeling. In the process of conducting research, the corresponding specialized GIS databases “Innovations in the Subjects of the Russian Federation” were designed and practically implemented in various software versions. Based on them, the construction and analysis of a complex of geographic information-cartographic models, differing in the degree of complexity, reflecting the innovative processes occurring in agriculture of all regions of the Russian Federation, was performed. Each of the series of obtained analytical base and resulting maps illustrates various aspects of the innovative development of agriculture and the diffusion of innovations at different time periods. The results of geographic information mapping and modeling were also presented in the form of animated maps and cartographic animations reflecting the features of the territorial distribution of innovations and the spatio-temporal dynamics of their diffusion. Spatio-temporal geographic information-cartographic analysis of the diffusion of innovations made it possible to identify some objective laws of this process. First of all, there was a marked movement of innovations in the agriculture of the Russian Federation in the space-time continuum in the direction from innovative nuclei and sub-nuclei to innovative sub-periphery and periphery, and from donor regions of agricultural innovations to recipient regions. Geographically, the diffusion of innovations in agriculture of the Russian Federation occurs mainly in the direction from the largest cities (at the same time being leading scientific and technical centers) and areas of intensive agriculture (primarily farming) to the regions of the east and north of the European part, Siberia and the Far East. The wide use of the capabilities of geographical information systems and geographic information technologies at all stages of the study allowed the formation of cartographic and attributive databases of the GIS “Innovations in the Subjects of the Russian Federation” according to the main indicators of the innovative development of the agricultural industry at the territorial level of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. On their basis, a significant number of maps and geoinformation-cartographic models of territorial innovative agricultural systems of regional level, the processes of diffusion of innovations occurring in them were constructed and analyzed, and their main spatio-temporal patterns were revealed.

This study introduces a Geographic Information System (GIS) WEB-based terrestrial TV to the community in facilitating the people to find the desired direction of the TV broadcast. To find a way to do a television broadcast signal sender to determine the location and the location of the signal receiver terrestrial tv stations then calculate the latitude and longitude coordinates vector of both locations. With the study of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) terrestrial TV broadcasting can be taken into consideration in terrestrial TV broadcasting and information to the public about Web-based terrestrial TV broadcasting in Padang.
