Selective Collection

This study aims to utilize a Geographic Information System (GIS) as an arc routing tool (door-to-door model) for a recyclable materials selective collection program. The investigation uses real data from material gatherers association in the city of Itajubá, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The research method is modeling and simulation. TransCAD 4.8 is used because it possesses an arc routing routine. Scenarios were simulated in which the most efficient routes were sought (shortest and fastest) in comparison with the associations real trajectories, which were collected in the field of study by means of a Global Positioning System (GPS) device. The results obtained, when compared to the current system, showed better performance (distance, time and volume of material). Thus, by using a GIS, it can be said the main logistics problems in the gatherers association are direct consequences of poor structuring.

Child Friendly Integrated Public Space or also known by the abbreviation RPTRA is the concept of public space in the form of green open spaces or parks that are equipped with various interesting games. Currently RPTRA is already widely available in all DKI Jakarta, especially in Central Jakarta, but there are still many people who do not know the location of the location of RPTRA. The dijkstra algorithm applied to this Android-based RPTRA geographic information system application in the City of Central Jakarta is to use google maps as a navigation map, where the Algorithm: {When users select the Map menu in the main menu, users will see maps and points of all RPTRA locations in Central Jakarta City, select one of the RPTRA location points, after the user selects one RPTRA location point, select the image on the right bottom route, then the user will go to google maps to get the route to the selected RPTRA. } The location of RPTRA directly takes coordinates at each RPTRA located in Central Jakarta City. The results achieved in testing the application went well able to provide accurate data on the location points of RPTRA in Central Jakarta.

Livestock Behavior

Precision agriculture is already being used commercially to improve variability management in row crop agriculture. In the same way, understanding how spatial and temporal variability of animal, forage, soil and landscape features affect grazing behavior and forage utilization provides potential to modify pasture management, improve efficiency of utilization, and maximize profits. Recent advances in global positioning system (GPS) technology have allowed the development of lightweight GPS collar receivers suitable for monitoring animal position at 5-min intervals. The GPS data can be imported into a geographic information system (GIS) to assess animal behavior characteristics and pasture utilization. This paper describes application and use of GPS technology on intensively managed beef cattle, and implications for livestock behavior and management research on pasture. Key words: Livestock behavior, electronics, grazing, forage, global positioning system, geographic information system

This research study the distribution of hospitals in the province of Baghdad Using geographic information system to focus on the shortage of hospitals in specific regions in comparison with other regions. In the distribution of hospitals in the city of Baghdad using Arc GIS program, we noticed that there is a shortage in the number of hospitals in the city of Kadhimiya, Sadr city and other areas compared to the increase in the population in these areas. There are enough hospitals in the area of Andalus square.

Flood Prone Areas

The purpose of this research is to create a geographic information system Bengkulu city flood-prone areas using ArcView. Apply the knowledge obtained during the lecture, especially relating to the development of Geographic Information Systems. To be able to produce a system that is accurate and useful information for the community. Where the research was conducted in the city of Bengkulu BASARNAS. Bengkulu BASARNAS office specializing in Search and Rescue (SAR), is the body that manage the flood of data that is still done manually, using Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. Thus experiencing problems in delivering information directly to the office because the SAR agencies require a long time.Keywords: Geographic Information System, Flood Prone Area

AbstractPlants disease epidemiology provides us with some information about the spread of diseases in different regions with various climates and helps us conduct suitable managing operations and predictions about the spread of disease to other areas. Geographic Information System (GIS) has been widely used as an important tool in epidemiological studies. Wetwood disease is one of the most important bacterial diseases on elm trees found in the Northwest of Iran. The disease has spread in different regions of Tabriz (located in the Northwest of Iran), which has become terribly epidemic. Geographic Information System as an appropriate tool in epidemiological examination of plant disease is useful in various ways. In this study, the epidemiology of bacterial wetwood disease on elm trees in Tabriz was investigated using GIS databases. The results indicate that the disease has become epidemic in different areas of Tabriz. According to the results, although the disease was not found in some regions, its severity was very high in some other areas. Based on the distribution map, the wetwood disease most highly exists in the central regions and some parts of the northern regions of the city, but eastern regions are least affected.

Geographical Information

The development of mobile technologies is important in the lives of humans. Mobile devices constitute a great part of the daily lives of people. It has come to such a point that when people first wake up, they check their smart phones for the first thing. Users may share their positions with the GNSS sensors in mobile devices or they can add information about their positions in mobile applications. Users contribute to Geographical Information System with this sharing. These users consist of native (citizens) living in that geographical position not of the CBS specialists. Creating, collecting, sharing and disseminating the geographical data provided by voluntary individuals constitute the Volunteered Geographic Information System. The data in the Volunteered Geographic Information System are received from amateur users.<br><br> “How reliable will the data received from amateur users instead of specialists of the field be in scientific terms?” In this study, the reliability between the data received from the voluntary users through Volunteered Geographic Information System and real data is investigated. The real data consist of the traffic accident coordinates. The data that will be received from users will be received through the speed values in the relevant coordinates and the marking of the users for possible accident points on the map.
