Geographical Characteristics

The synergy that exists between geography, computer science and advances in information technologies has allowed the consolidation of geographic science from an integral perspective and allowing the correlation of basic elements for the analysis of the territory in an applied science called Geomatics. The research result in this field are linked to the collection and analysis of observation data, which are collected through satellites, ground stations, ocean buoys, the global positioning system (GPS), aerial sensors (photogrammetry), Weather balloons and traditional techniques for measuring and describing land. To process this data, Geographic Information System (GIS) has been developed, involving aspects of hardware and software with applications that are as diverse and varied as the users themselves. Also, presents an analysis of the main SIG's, its main features and applications , because despite having a scientific structure and IT support that allows one effective land management in rural or urban type, yet there is a wide area of opportunity solving and Previ or endo the emergence of conflicts interactions between human activities and geographical characteristics.

This contribution deals with the benefits of the global positioning system, with the influence of the human factor on fuel consumption and with monitoring of further savings in operation of earthmoving machines in a construction company. Fuel consumption data of a selected earthmoving machine before and after installation of a global positioning system unit and a fuel level measurement sensor are compared. These data are evaluated and the extent of the influence of the installed devices on the machine fuel consumption is determined from them. Further possibility of exploitation of monitoring of earthmoving machines during excavation and creation of given relief is also described here. Not only the fuel savings were evaluated, but also the accuracy and speed of performed work and thus also the influence of the human factor on performance of earthmoving machines itself.

GPS (Global Positioning System) is the popular system for navigation which assistance 32 satellites orbiting the earth. Currently, tracking positions using the Global Positioning System (GPS) is one of the best positioning tracking methods. However, GPS has a lot o f noise, so filters are needed to handle with noise on GPS. In this research, the simulation is done to extract data from GPS sensors using RLS algorithm. From the results o f identification and simulation, it can be concluded that the algorithm works well and need to analyze the advantages and disadvantages to be implemented on the downlink system designed. From the simulation results obtained that error estimation is convergent that is the longer the smaller.

This paper describes the application of airborne video data with global positioning system and geographic information system technologies for detecting and mapping Chinese tamarisk infestations in the southwestern United States. Study areas were along the Colorado River in southwestern Arizona, the Rio Grande River in extreme west Texas, and the Pecos River in west-central Texas. Chinese tamarisk could be readily distinguished on conventional color video imagery in late November when its foliage turned a yellow-orange to orange-brown color prior to leaf drop. The integration of the global positioning system with the video imagery permitted latitude/longitude coordinates of Chinese tamarisk infestations to be recorded on each image. The global positioning system latitude/longitude coordinates were entered into a geographic information system to map Chinese tamarisk populations along the three river systems.

Hydrocarbon Reserves

The exploitation of offshore hydrocarbon reserves needs consistent high accuracy positioning in many applications throughout all operational stages from exploration to development and subsequent field maintenance.Traditionally, this requirement has been met by a variety of terrestrial electronic position-fixing aids all of which have advantages and disadvantages in relation to different offshore tasks. Now satellite systems are being developed which will have a major impact on offshore positioning and the most important of these is the American NavStar Global Positioning System (GPS).In GPS the marine navigator and surveyor at last has a system that potentially can give him a truly global 24-hour real-time high-accuracy system which will meet or assist with many of his requirements for positioning.However, great care must be exercised in the use of this military system over which the civil user has no direct control. In addition, errors in the system, some inherent and some deliberately applied, must be monitored and if possible corrected. Consequently, significant civil user infrastructure must surround the application of GPS for offshore work in order to achieve the high-quality accurate service demanded.This paper discusses the current and future performance of GPS and looks at the sources of error, with particular attention to the deliberately applied Selective Availability, arguing the need for a robust, monitored, differential environment, but noting the problems of providing a dependable data link.

This work is about designing a smartwatch that is used mostly by fishermen. The watch provides the location of the user using the global positioning system (GPS) and a panic button that he can use in case of emergency. It can record the heart rate by using a heart rate sensor. The paper  works with a software that is used by the appropriate authorities; they record the information provided by the smartwatch. The third part of the paper is a mobile application used by the rescue team; the application shows the location of the fisherman. This paper aims to help fishermen in case of emergency cases, they can be saved by the rescue team. Based on the heart rate sensor and the panic button provided by the smartwatch, the appropriate authorities can know when a fisherman needs help and send the rescue team.
