Application of GIS systems in Agriculture now adays is an essential tool for managing, monitoring and updating crops information in daily, monthly or annual basis. A review of number of OpenGeo products exposed worldwide shows that there have been major improvements in much functionality recently . The application of GIS systems in agriculture is also recommended by Eur opean Commission for countries which are being prepared to join European Union (LPIS, vineyard cadastre etc.). For the wine cultivation in Kosovo,...

The ArcGIS software from ESRI contains tools for interpolation of raster surfaces from point data. There are four classical interp olation methods: IDW, spline with tension, regularized spline, and kriging in the “3D analysis” toolbox in the “Interpolation method” toolset in the ArcCatalog application. It is possible to set different parameter values for each interpolation method in Ar cGIS. These parameter settings influence the output digital elevation models. The research team in the Department of Geoin...

With climate change in recent years, tourists, whether foreign or domestic would prefer to assess the danger associated to some locations they visit. In this paper the analysis of temperature was preferred, because it represents the most accessible type of data for long periods, and for statistical analysis. The studied region, the Eastern Carpathians is considered as one of the coldest part of Romania, but also a touristically attractive region. We selected for analysis three majo r basins (Giurgeu, Ciuc, Intorsu...

Data fusion has been important field of expl oration, brought to light under the influence of new technologies and the emerging need for information integration and knowledge extraction from heter ogeneous data sources. The main focus of this paper will be set particularly on sensor data fusion. Our cu rrent focus is on designing and developing an intelligent data fusion component for a Sens or Web based architecture that will enable combining different environmental data into coherent information. For addressing ...

Hydrological parameters have major impact to water, energy, civil engineering, industry and other commercial and non-economic branches. For the determination of the hydrological processes are: observed, measured and recorded data on hydrological phenomena. Our knowledge of these phenomena modes is the basis for good planning and management of water resources. As a source of information for defining the characteristics we used measured data. The effectiveness of water systems depends on the measurement and hydrolog...

Spatial data are being used in the process of effective decision making, for optimal resource management and continuous development. A need for properly maintained cadastral records enforced the development of spatial data infrastr ucture at national, regional and global level. NSDI (National Spatial Data Infras tructure) decreases redundancy and allows an easy access, share and exchange of spatial data on the principles of interoperability. NSDI de velopment must be based on the ISO 19100 series of standards and ...

The landscape structure, its components and their developments are possible to monitor from several, mutually complementary aspect s: arrangement of gradients (abiotic and biotic) across the territory without signifi cant and sharp boundaries; arrangement of areas in the mosaic of the landscape; network of areas and corridors; system of boundaries and rims in the landscape mosaic [1]. The investigation into ecotones enabled a better understanding of the causal relationships between certain landscape elements, land...

Reliable and safe operation of pipelines is one of the basic requirements of natural gas transmission. Construction of new routes but also runni ng existing pipelines requires planning and risk assessment. Pipeline Integr ity Management is a system that requires collection and processing of information not only about the route and condition of piping systems, but also an analysis of all f actors that can contribute significantly to the fail of integrity. Qualitative ri sk analysis is used for th e effective decisi...

Monitoring of environmental components, in relation to changes in global biochemical cycles and the presence of their deposition, is one of the world`s most attractive areas of research. This area plays an important role in the sphere of crisis management. One of the dominant components of the environment is water, in all states, especially in forms of snow and ice. Monitoring of weight and height of snow deposition concentrations is the main task of research projects of envi ronmental, geographical and technical ...

This item refers to the cent re-peripherical model due to Paul Krugman (1991) with all its merits in grounding of the economic crowdings, and which at the same time meant also the arising of a new field in the economic theory, known as “The New Economic Geography”. They also criticized it for the symmetry of the transport costs of the industrial and agricultural products. These criticisms could be avoid by improving the model, so as it is trying in this work. Simultaneously, the achieving of an informatics pro...

This paper evaluates the usage of the Geographic Markup Language (GML) in Turkey and essential subjects of the interoperabi lity concept in Turk ey for the future. Geography Markup Language-GML was developed by Open GIS Consortium-OGC. OGC presented GML based upon the technology of Extensible Markup Language-XML developed by World Wide Web Consortium-W3C. It was planned to constitute a layer for land registry and cad astral data at studies of INSPIRE (Infrastructure for Spatial Info rmation in Europe) that adopted...
