Accumulation of nutrients in aquatic systems can have negative impacts on water quality, which can then affect the performance and impact of an aquaculture system. Non-point sources (NPS) and runoff from different land use practices are a major contributor of nutrients to the aquatic environment. However, NPS loading is difficult to identify, and monitoring schemes are often insufficient, particularly...
We present Geographic Information System model, which is developed on the basis of metasystem approach and it is focused on application as monitoring system of complex object. The model is described on the basis of set-theoretic approach, functions according to scenarios, integrates, processes and monitors the space-time and coordinate information. The problem of acquisition and reversible compression...
When hydrologic scientists are looking for data to use in their data models relevant to their research area, they encounter a bottleneck when trying to collect relevant information, sometimes they might not know of all the available sources. Great Lakes Monitoring (GLM) collects data from 5 different state and federal agencies that take measurements on nutrients, geochemicals, contaminants, among...
The objective of this paper is to report the study carried out to assess and evaluate changes in Land-Use Land-Cover(LULC) at the region of Aurangabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) for the year 2009 and 2015 using multispectral images acquired from remotely sensed Linear-Imaging-Self-Scanning-Sensor-HI(LISS-HI). The area was categorized into six types, viz. Residential(R), Vegetation(V), Water_Body(W),...
The purpose of this paper is a presentation of a recursive project (a platform), that started three years ago, in which shore management companies can collect, transmit, store, analyze and finally use and present vessels live data on a Geographical Information System used as Global Monitoring Platform. We used those data for further analysis, and we produced information about engine performance, gas...
Big Data are having a great impact on the cities morphology and urban planning; actually, big data are used, for example, to predict the needs of the public transport system, by targeting investment and mobility policies within the main metropolis. Based on this assumption, this paper presents a Decision Support System (DSS) framework aimed at proposing travel strategies alternative to car use by...
Realistic load profiles are critical to quantify the benefits and challenges associated with the adoption of new technologies. The allocation of these profiles to loads in a distribution network model considering the corresponding monthly energy consumption, class of customer (residential or industrial/commercial), and location (from Geographic Information Systems, GIS) is an important task that must...
Traffic congestions represent current realities of urban environments, partly because the road infrastructure capacity can't cope anymore with the increase rate of the cars number. This characteristic, coupled with weather conditions, work zones and traffic incidents makes traffic congestions a major concern for municipalities. The advanced technologies for traffic control have the potential to lead...
A geospatial analysis component is beneficial to the Radio Frequency Interference Monitoring System (RFIMS). RFIMS will be implemented due to auctioned-based spectrum sharing between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) meteorological setellite downlink stations and commercial wireless providers. The geospatial component provides a cost effective and quick processing method to...
Haze has becoming a yearly occurrence in Malaysia. There exist three dimensionsto the problems associated with air pollution: public ignorance on quality of air, impact of air pollution towards health, and difficulty in obtaining information related to air pollution. This research aims to analyse and visually identify areas and associated level of air pollutant. This study applies the air pollutant...
Critical Infrastructures (CIs) such as energy, water, and transportation are complex networks that are crucial for sustaining day-to-day commodity flows vital to national security, economic stability, and public safety. The nature of these CIs is such that failures caused by an extreme weather event or a man-made incident can trigger widespread cascading failures, sending ripple effects at regional...
Based on the Pan-sensing and positioning system and the vehicle monitoring and dispatching system under GPS / GIS cooperation, designed the overall architecture of the intelligent logistics and distribution information system under the Internet of Things environment. Established the information service systems with information acquisition, processing and application capabilities by using the Pan-sensing...
Flyer is a means utilized popularly and effectively in recording landscape from above, collecting data of environment and weather, contributing to field works, especially conveying samples and medications from or to patients living in areas isolated by flood. It is necessary to track flyer's locations and characteristics for its activities. Visualization-based system for tracking flyer enables user...
With the development of Kunming's economy and infrastructure construction in China, it's emergency for Kunming bridge and tunnel maintenance departments to improve the level of computerization and the work efficiency. By analyzing WebGIS technology and the business requirements of maintenance departments, this paper presents a design for an inspection and maintenance management system used in urban...
With the progress of industry, river pollution is becoming more and more serious. WebGIS technology is used to monitor and simulate the river water quality, achieving the goal of controlling water environment condition in real time and dynamically. Moreover, WebGIS has the advantages of map visualization and network transmission, which could be used to complete the task of water quality monitoring...
The Public Participation Geographic Information System (PPGIS) is an important component of GIS. It not only has the spatial decision function of traditional GIS, but also emphasizes the group participation of general public. In view of the dispersion, diversity and complexity of agricultural environmental monitoring objections, the article puts forward the work idea of agricultural environmental...
In order to solve the safety monitoring of drug in the medical logistics transportation, monitoring the vehicle position, speed and other status information, and optimization of vehicle scheduling problem, and preparing for the follow-up vehicle routing optimization, the GPS based logistics vehicle management system is researched and implemented with the Internet of things technology. This paper briefly...
The concept of distribution automation system is put forward to improve power supply reliability and power quality to users. To begin with, four main functions of distribution automation system including monitoring function, control function, protection function and management function are introduced in this paper. Then, some key technologies applied to achieve those functions are analyzed. Finally,...
GIS-oriented systems are often used for maritime safety monitoring and situation assessment. Such systems allow to analyze, visualize receiving information and what is more to support organizational decision-making processes in various dangerous situations. This paper presents an approach to maritime safety monitoring in the Arctic seas on the base of special system — intelligent GIS. Ontology, expert...
Phasor measurement units can play a significant role in the development of a smart grid by making the power grid more aware of its operating states. Judiciously deployed PMUs in the power grid can convert the non-linear iterative state estimation into linear state measurement opening multitudes of possibilities for monitoring the power grid. A number of techniques/algorithms have been reported in...
