Every institution in cities works just by collecting its required information and only in the area of its responsibility. There are big negations in satisfying the requirements of its related institution as well as difficulties are...

In this survey, analysis of statistical results of water resource has been conducted in "Bastam" study area in Semnan province. This water resource includes well, spring, kanat, divergence stream from river, dike, diversion dam and pumping station. This statistical result was conducted according to the standard forms of power ministry of Iran in the desert and the recorded information is prepared into a database, on basis of 1:50000 maps in GIS environment for spatial and descriptive analysis. In addition, by surv...

Climate is result of effects of aero-logy phenomenal and view intermediate atmosphere in ideal area. Climate have wide meanings and cover aero-logy parameters like physical, chemical and may be biological factors and it could expressed that nowadays lot’s of different ways have been based for characterizing climate. In this research by employing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and also Du marten \& selyaninov climatology methods, microzonation of Halvan study area, which has located in central basin of Iran...

Slovak republic committed to implement into legislative direction of European parliament and European Council 2006/21/ES from March of 15th of 2006. The direction contains conditions about disposal with wastes of mining industry, which changes and adds direction 2004/35/ES. This legislative required creation of complex evaluation methodology of different types of mining wastes. Tailing pond represents area for permanently or temporary deposition of mainly hydraulically consigned mud/sediment (waste). Consigned mud...

The paper deals with specific issues concerning the introduction of cadastre development in Romania in terms of market economy and integration in the European community. The paper addresses the historical stages of different land works, the present situation and future courses of action. Achieving accuracy in conditions of adequate infrastructure in Romania is influenced by specialized methods and apparatuses used in making observations, their processing and implementation of related documentation.

In this study, analysis and visualization of map projection distortions have been discussed. For the realization of the distortion analysis in practice, an auxiliary program was developed by MATLAB program, to calculate the amount of distortion. At the stage of the calculation of distortion the world map projections have been focused on and equations of these projections have been used. The points of interest were chosen as the intersection points of the geographic network of the original surface. 5ox5o geographic...

Ecological awareness today is necessary in the last decade, the nature is degraded as a result of over-using resource for completely the fulfillment. Macedonia is aspiring to become an EU member state and in this aspect environment requirements have to fulfilled. The ratification of international environmental conventions and their incorporation in Macedonian legislation will help to have better place to live. In this pare work ecological awareness is analyze in the Environment Laws, an another point of view, how ...

The authors while examining the real estate market for estimating the market value of real estate have defined the areas directly affecting the state of the ecosystem. Using a very simple and inexpensive test, they identified anomalies at the fiscal level of state and estimated negative effects of legislation on the ecosystem. The main research tool was a comparative approach in estimating the value of the property.

Edirne, which is one of the bigest city in western Turkey (Figure 1), has been damaged by floods and flashfloods with an increasing frequency and intensity over the years. This study was prepared as a preliminary investigation and aimed to research the floods and flooding in Edirne city (Turkey). For creating the topographic database in Geographic Information System (GIS), 1/25000 and 1/250000 scale topographic maps and satellite images was used. Subbasins areas of Meric River and flood area in Edirne city center ...

Research was conducted into application of genetic algorithm to determine the optimal transformation parameters that are needed for georeferencing scanograms and various digital images. An algorithm based on techique of surface matching was developed, instead of conventional methods using control points. Tests were conducted using the segment of topographic map, produced in time of Austro-Hungarian Empire (represented by numerical model) and modern DEM of Sarajevo Canton. Due to relatively coarse resolution of use...

The general trend of GIS development seems to indicate that it will continue to become easier to use, more intuitive, more analytic, more embedded within a variety of technologies. The latest development in GIS application added an extra dimension to a conventional GIS by using technology of multimedia and virtual reality. The interactive form of decision making taps the widely recognized trend of GIS application from an operational support system to a strategic decision support system.

OMV Petrom S.A. is the largest integrated oil and gas company in Romania, having Exploration and Production activities (onshore and offshore) in Romania as well as in Kazakhstan and Russia. In 2004 Petrom S.A. became part of the OMV Group, the largest oil and gas producer in Central - Eastern Europe. To find, develop and operate new production, an oil and gas company must understand needed infrastructure, business conditions and environmental factors within a given geographic framework. The OMV Petrom GIS group’...

Mozambique is one of the most vulnerable countries to natural catastrophes in the world with second highest annual per capita death rate from disasters, 328 deaths per million, ranking only below the P.D.R of Korea; Flood disasters are responsible for half the fatalities and a third of the economical losses from natural disasters worldwide (UNDP, 2004). The Limpopo basin, one of the nine international rivers shared by Mozambique is the second large within the country and it benefits about 5\% of the national popul...

For the purpose of defining location of points, coordinates that described according to a reference systems are using which parameters has defined already. In surveying, the base element is ground control points with their known coordinates in a reference system. In every kind of surveying project, new coordinates are determining by using coordinates of ground control points. Because of this, the projects realized by using points which have low spatial accuracy and ground control point’s location errors will be ...

Waste management is common problem for many countries in world and landfill site selection is a necessary issue for waste management in fast-growing regions. Likewise, appropriate landfill site selection should be performed for each municipality in Turkey because municipal solid wastes are major problem for especially drinking water basins. The main objective of this study is to selection of a landfill site in the Yalva\cc Basin. The basin is located at east of the Egirdir Lake which is the second largest fresh wa...

The public-private partnerships are a very common form, which is used to realize the various types of public projects in case the public sector does not have enough financial means or knowledge to realize such projects without the presence of private sector. The proper legislative background is required to apply these long-term contractual relationships between public and private partner. In Slovak Republic the situation is moving forward together with first extensive PPP projects, which were realized in Slovakia ...

In Turkey, approximately 3840 ton/day marble waste originated from several marble producers. But only 20\% of this amount is evaluated in different usage areas. Therefore, waste site selection is an important issue to minimize negative effects of marble wastes in environment. The main aim of this study is to perform site selection process using Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The Bucak District was selected for study area since there are many marble quarries through...
