TVAL-Farm

The Total Value Assessment Tool for Farmland (TVAL-Farm) is a tool which incorporates scenic quality and cultural heritage elements to create an enhanced Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA) model. The enhancement of the LESA model provides insight and a framework on how to collect and incorporate qualitative public values within the quantitative environment of a Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Inclusion of these public values is essential for holistically valuing land parcels and using LESA to make land protection decisions.

Novel Design

<p>Geographic information systems (GIS) allow us to manage information related to a territory in an efficient and flexible way. Management of information concerning cultural heritage presents a set of requirements which are similar to those. In processes such as documentation, restoration and preservation it is necessary to locate a wealth of information on the surface of the model on which we are working, not only allowing editing and displaying it, but even analysing such information.<br />This paper presents a novel design of an information system for cultural heritage that provides the functionality described above, which starting from some ideas and working methods borrowed from GIS has adapted these ideas to representations commonly used in the field of cultural heritage.</p>

Cost Effective Method

Community land use decisions benefit from spatially explicit community preferences; yet, the methods for incorporating the preferences for intangible values are challenging to represent spatially. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an introduction to the Total Value Assessment Tool for Farmland (TVAL-Farm), a tool that incorporates scenic quality and cultural heritage elements to create an enhanced Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA) model. The chapter describes the development of TVAL-Farm and its implications for farmland preservation in Western North Carolina. The enhancement of the LESA model created by TVAL-Farm provides insight and a framework on how to collect and incorporate qualitative public values within the quantitative environment of a Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Inclusion of these public values is essential for holistically valuing land parcels and understanding community land use preferences. Increased use of modern technologies in the data collection process will promote a cost-effective method of community participation and engagement.

Science Of History

Geographic information systems have an important role in the science of history. Geographic information systems are able to integrate various data in the study of history, combine, analyze, and map the results. This journal aims to examine the role of geographic information systems in geography. The method used is descriptive analysis method. The process of searching, collecting, and analyzing data is done by using literature studies from various reliable sources, such as books, journals, scientific articles, and academic archives and taking data on the distribution of cultural heritage in the City of Jambi. The results of the analysis show that the role of geographic information systems in the history of science as a tool to improve spatial or spatial analysis. in detail, the role of geographic information systems in the study of historical science can 1) provide historical data in a spatial form in maps, such as the map of the distribution of cultural heritage in Jambi City, 2) be able to see the comparison of historical facts from several regions, 3) make it easy to associate and correlating with the surrounding environment, 4) regionalization can be made related to the area of power in the past, 5) makes it easy to answer the question "where" and "why there. And understand the relationship between humans and the environment, and how they affect the dynamics of life in the past. Thus, the role of GIS as an analytical tool in history is very important because it is able to provide data spatially and deepen the analysis of historical data.
