Spatio-Temporal conceptual model for a WEEE GIS application
نویسندگان
چکیده
This project focuses on optimizing the location of WEEE collection points for waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) which consists of determining a set of locations to install a network of gathering equipment. It is implemented using open source technologies following the current tendency of the present software market situation. In particular, the software application to be developed will provide a visual way to control an entire logistics network of WEEE collection and sorting points. The implementation of this cutting edge proximity, availability and easy access to producers of waste (individuals and others), will increase the amount of WEEE collected and consequently environmental benefits of reducing poor waste disposal. Several Java algorithms are being developed in order to solve location and vehicle routing problems. It can also lead to important reductions in operating costs in the transportation, storage or sorting levels and contribute for reductions in pollution and energy consumption levels.

Assessment of Neonate's Congenital Hypothyroidism Pattern Using Poisson Spatio-temporal Model in Disease Mapping under the Bayesian Paradigm during 2011-18 in Guilan, Iran
Background: Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the reasons for mental retardation and defective growth in neonates. It can be treated if it is diagnosed early. The congenital hypothyroidism can be diagnosed using newborn screening in the first days after birth. Disease mapping helps to identify high-risk areas of the disease. This study aimed to evaluate the pattern of CH using the Poisso...
متن کاملA Tool for Transforming Conceptual Schemas of Spatio-Temporal Databases with Multiple Representation
Nowadays, classical conceptual models (such as ER or UML) are used for designing database applications. These classical conceptual models usually come with associated CASE tools assisting the user from the creation of the conceptual schema until the generation of a physical schema for a relational or an object-relational DBMS. However, when developing spatial or temporal databases such classica...
متن کاملUsing Conceptual and Ontological Models for Tracking Changes of Spatio-Temporal Objects and Concepts over Time
In this paper, we present a new approach that benefits from the advantages of both conceptual and ontological models in order to provide a powerful spatio-temporal data model for geographic information systems (GIS). We base our model on the MADS conceptual model that is transformed to a corresponding ontology model, using database to ontology mapping techniques and a set of transformation rule...
متن کاملAn Application of Advanced Spatio-Temporal Formalisms to Behavioural Ecology
There is great potential for the development of many new applications using data on mobile objects and mobile regions. To promote these kinds of applications advanced data management techniques for the representation and analysis of mobility-related data are needed. Together with application experts (behavioural ecologists), we investigate how two novel data management approaches may help. We f...
متن کاملReasearch on the Change-of-feature Based Spatio-temporal Object Relational Data Model
The spatio-temporal data is our cognition to external matter and the spatio-temporal data model is the fundamental basic to manage the spatio-temporal data. The spatio-temporal object is always changing so we need a spatio-temporal data model which can reflect the change information and change reason and roundly and exactly describe the spatio-temporal world. At the same time more and more dema...
