ANALYSIS of STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS OF A DIGITAL THEMATIC MAP

Over the past decades, cartography has undergone significant changes, where a digital form of cartographic information prevails has arisen, which in turn led to a change in the structure of a map. Basic software environment where thematic digital maps are created are analyzed. The structural elements of a digital thematic map created in various software environment are analyzed. Invariance of map elements is regarded.

Design and Development of Ladder Climbing Robot

This paper presents the development of a ladder climbing robot prototype. The development of the prototype includes constructing the basic software and hardware for the robot. The robot controller is designed using Arduino Mega 2560 software implemented in Arduino IDE with C programming. The hardware development involves constructing the main chassis and climbing arm with servomotor, DC geared motor and motor driver. An algorithm to climb ladder is developed with application of Infrared (IR) sensor and ultrasonic sensors. Significantly, the robot prototype is tested on ladders of different rung spacing. In the future, a base with wheels will be constructed for the robot to carry load and move on ground with obstacle avoidance capability and side grippers will be constructed to improve climbing performance of the robot on vertical ladder; this project will contribute to future research on similar topics.

Perangkat Lunak Komputer (software)

Abstrak Perangkat lunak adalah program komputer yang berfungsi sebagai sarana interaksi (penghubung) antara pengguna (user) dan perangkat keras. Software bisa juga dikatakan sebagai "penerjemah" perintah-perintah yang dijalankan pengguna komputer untuk diteruskan atau diproses oleh perangkat kerar. Software pada umumnya digunakan untuk mengontrol perangkat keras (yang sering disebut device driver), melakukan proses perhitungan, berinteraksi dengan Software yang lain dan lebih mendasar (seperti sistem operasi, dan bahasa pemrograman), dan lain-lain.Kata Kunci : Perangkat Lunak Komputer (Software)AbstractSoftware is a computer program that functions as a means of interaction (liaison) between users and hardware. Software can also be said as “ translator” commands run by computer users to be forwarded or processed by hardware. Software is generally used to control hardware (often called divice drivers), carry out the calculation process, interact with other and more basic software (such as operating systems, and programming languages), and others.Key words: software.
