Radical Transformation

Maps and mapping are the manifestation of geography for the great bulk of the population. These play a key role in society and underpin many functions of the state. The situation is particularly marked in Britain, both in war and peace, where the Ordnance Survey (the country's national mapping agency) has been central to national mapping for more than two centuries. It is no exaggeration to say that mapping underpins many of the activities of society, especially in Britain. The collation, visualisation and analysis of geographical information through maps are intimately intertwined. Since British geography and British geographers have been involved in all aspects of mapping and its successor, this chapter covers both academic and non-academic aspects of the subject area. This chapter examines the geographical underpinning of British society and its radical transformation, Geographical Information Systems and information technology and non-trivial cartography.

Abstract   Development of information technology can be used in various ways such as through design of Geographical Information Systems Tourism Industry Web Based On Tourism Office Bekasi, this can be used as a medium to inform the travel industry more broadly, Using methods based promotions information technology by using the website as an information access has the advantage that can be accessed by anyone, anywhere, anytime without the time and distance. So that the travel industry in Bekasi Regency can be informed quickly and accurately as well as the information can be combined with geographic information systems that can do the mapping industry where tourist sites are located. Design SIG Tourism industry is using the PHP programming language and on its use codeigneter with plugin Google Maps API, system development methods used methods Zachman framework by modeling framework and UML (Unifed Modeling Language), Through this design, it is hoped that it can contribute ideas to the Bekasi Regency Tourism Office in an effort to promote industrial tourism to the community.   Keywords: Geographic Information System, Tourism industry, Zachman Framework, the Google Maps API.   Abstrak   Berkembangnya teknologi informasi dapat dimanfaatkan dengan berbagai cara salah satunya melalui Perancangan Sistem Informasi Geografis Wisata Industri Berbasis Web Pada Dinas Pariwisata Kabupaten Bekasi, hal  ini  dapat  dimanfaatkan  sebagai media untuk menginformasikan wisata industri yang lebih luas lagi, Menggunakan metode promosi berbasis teknologi informasi dengan menggunakan website sebagai akses informasi mempunyai kelebihan yaitu dapat di akses siapa saja, dimana saja, kapan saja tanpa mengenal jarak dan waktu.

Information Systems Use

The paper considers the problematic issues of the geographical information systems (GIS) use in the sociohygienic monitoring (SHM). We analyzed scientific and practical publications on this subject that are freely available on the largest Russian information portal of scientific electronic library eLIBRARY.RU during 2014- 2018, which allowed us to formulate the principles of organization and requirements for effective operation of geographic and information systems in the socio-hygienic monitoring. An analysis of the implementation of these principles at the present stage of development for the socio-hygienic monitoring system is presented, the results of which were used in formulating priority tasks in the area of geographic and information technology implementation into socio-hygienic monitoring and risk-based planning of control and supervisory measures: to determine the necessary level of detail and an information list depicted on electronic maps for the implementation of risk-based control planning; to provide organizational and regulatory and methodological support for the hierarchical principle of GIS within Rospotrebnadzor operating on a single software product of domestic developers for organizations and institutions; to work out the need to combine GIS with similar systems of other departments involved in the data collection of social and hygienic monitoring (Rosstat, Roshydromet, Rosprirodnadzor, Ministry of Health, etc.) to enable automated data export and import; to solve staffing issues to ensure customization and subsequent GIS operation; to provide budget funding for the purchase of licensed software products for GIS in SHM, preferably of Russian developers.
