As residential areas continue to develop near military sites, possible impacts from military traffic and exercises become of greater concern. Of particular concern is the effect of particulate matter and atmospheric dust dispersion on air quality caused by such maneuvers. To aid this problem, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory proposed a plan to develop, document, and test a modeling system ...

A desktop Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for Geotechnical Information Management system has recently been developed to assist geo-technical managers, planners through flexible application with all common desktop GIS functionalities and customized tools like Borehole Viewer and Stripchart to relate alignments and cross-sections to a specific location and/or region on the map, and create th...

GIS (Geographic Information System) is widely applied in many scientific domains. However, to keep the database “current” is still a “bottle-neck” which obstacles the application and promotion of GIS techniques and products. In this paper, we start with the analysis of why the updating of database is difficult and what kinds of the problems exist in GIS database updating. The problems are analy...

This contribution analyses the behavior of two kinds of multiprocessor multidisk storage server architectures for a data-intensive application, namely for spatial queries in geographical information systems (GIS). The two kinds of servers are:: (1) a workstation cluster architecture with multiple processors, multiple disks, and a shared-bus shared-memory architecture ; (2) a distributed-memory ...

GIS can be used in tourism as a decision supporting tool for sustainable tourism planning, impact assessment, visitor flow management, and tourism site selection. Therefore, the potential for GIS applications in tourism is significant. The purpose of the study was fixed to explore the potential of using GIS for planning resources pertinent to ecotourism development. The study investigated a cas...

Paper discusses the function and meaning of ARGIS in architecture through an instance of an aerodrome construction project. In the initial stages of the construction, it applies the advanced technology including 3S (RS, GIS and GPS) techniques, augmented reality, virtual reality and digital image processing techniques, and so on. Virtual image or other information that is created by the compute...

Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), as a multiple criteria decision making tools especially in the problems with spatial nature or GIS-based. In addition this study treats the steps AHP, its manner to apply and its weaknesses and strengths and ultimately the fuzzy modified Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) which is proposed after that the concepts like of fuzziness, uncertainty and vagueness ...

This paper presents a new design for a census-based binational geographic information system. GIS has had limited application intra-censally i.e. between nations. The reasons are the formidable obstacles of standardization of attributes, matching of meaning of attributes, consistency of data-bases, and consistency of boundary files. Many problems in public administration can be solved by using ...

Grid is the collection of heterogeneous resources, providing good opportunities for the users of virtual organizations forming a Grid for coordinated resource sharing and problem sharing. Much Grid middleware software exists for implementing a Grid framework. Apart from many application areas of Grid Computing, Geographic Information System has been an emerging application area for Grid Technol...
