<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In these last recent years farmers in the sector of Maraba in South Province of Rwanda had face challenges to keep producing good quality coffee and to be the 1st place in competition of cup of Excellence. We conducted this research in order to show how the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) models as the research method for growing and producing good quality coffee in taking into consideration environmental factors like: Elevation and temperature, Rainfall and water supply, Soil, Aspect and slopes.</p><p>The findings in this research about the selection of zones of coffee plantation and relation relationship to coffee quality will be published on Geo-Portal where maps and metadata created or collected will be available to the public and particularly to Maraba sector community.</p><p>The results of this research will be presented to Maraba sector community in a workshop so that they can gain knowledge of the land and the good quality of Maraba coffee.</p>

This paper mainly aims at analysing and selecting the best railway route within the Karbala City. The significance of having suitable locations for railway route is recognized as a crucial element in the pursuit to improve the quality of public transport in general. This paper uses technique based on bridging the gap between all the criteria to determine suitable location for the railway. It was also intended to organize non-spatial data for describing the process. The site selection of railway is the process of finding locations that meet the desired conditions set by the selection criteria. For this issue a professional know-how to deal with data depending on multi criteria is necessary to achieve of the task of decision making. Due to the tangle of the issue, a special effort must be done, to have a good usefulness of site selection. The results of spatial model in this paper shows the best railway track is (Karbala-ALhindya).

Site selection of waste-to-energy (WtE) plant is critically important in the whole life cycle. Some research has been launched in the WtE plant site selection, but there is still a serious problem called Not In My Back Yard (NIMBY) effect that needs to be solved. To solve the problem, an improved multigroup VIKOR method is proposed to choose the optimal site and compromised sites. In the proposed method, the public satisfaction is fully considered where the public is invited as an evaluation group far more than creating general indicators to represent the public acceptance. First of all, an elaborate criteria system is built to evaluate site options comprehensively and the weights of criteria are identified by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Then, the interval 2-tuple linguistic information is adopted to assess the ratings for the established criteria. The interval 2-tuple linguistic ordered weighted averaging (ITL-OWA) operator is utilized to aggregate the opinions of evaluation committee while the opinions of the public are aggregated using weighted average operator. Finally, a case from south China which shows the computational procedure and the effectiveness of the proposed method is proved. Last but not least, a sensitivity analysis is conducted by comparing the results with different weights of evaluation group assessments.

E-literacy and education are important components in improving the quality of human resources needed in an organization. The purpose of this study is to reveal the importance of e-literacy and public policy education. The State Civil Apparatus (ASN) requires e-literacy and education to improve performance results so that public services can be maximized. This becomes interesting research in the development of science-based on the real events that occur in Indonesia. Where so far, e-literacy and education is only intended for the public, especially millennial generation. The research method used is the study of literature where data is obtained through various secondary sources that are relevant to theoretically strengthen research results. The findings explain that e-literacy and education are effective and efficient strategies in overcoming budget constraints and low levels of ASN competence. With e-literacy and public policy education, it is hoped that the professionalism of the ASN bureaucracy will increase and the quality of public services will be better.

To date, use of the full potential of geo-information is not often applied in the daily practice of policy makers. The main questions explored by this research are: Why is geo-information not widely used in policy and how can this be improved? A conceptual framework was developed to evaluate the use of geo-information. For five cases, the use of geo-information was evaluated by means of this framework. The results of the evaluation, as well as the usefulness of the framework, are discussed. Recommendations on spatial thinking and practice, availability and quality of a spatial data infrastructure and implementation of new geo-applications in policy-making are also made.

The study consists of two parts. In the first one, the author outlines a methodological concept of researching the quality of compositional and artistic spatial systems that are created, for example, in the urban environment with the participation of, inter alia, architectural objects and works of art. The subject of this type of research was called a ‘compositional situation’. In the second part, the author uses the proposed research method to analyze specific cases. These are two situations existing in the public spaces of Mexico City, in which sculptures of famous Mexican sculptor Sebastian were located.
