As the largest service industry in the world, tourism plays a special role in sustainable development. Geomorphic tourism is known to be a segment of this industry with lower environmental impact and underlying causes that explain lower demand; therefore, it is essential to study, identify, assess, plan, and manage natural tourist attractions. As such, the present study assesses the ability of ...

Abstract The goal of this study is to investigate the impact topographic features Mount Karanfil and its surroundings on local climate. Karanfil, located in Mediterranean Basin, has a unique ecological position due topography. This analyzed temperature, precipitation, wind conditions at from 1980 2018 using data General Directorate Meteorology (MGM). temperature indices were calculated Clima Ar...

Digital elevation models (DEMs) are increasingly used for visual and mathematical analysis of topography, landscapes and landforms, as well as modeling of surface processes. A DEM of Cerro Sillajhuay, a volcano in the Andes of Chile/Bolivia, was developed from ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) satellite data. The original 30-m DEM was generated by using tie ...

The objective of this study is to generate a flood hazard map based on geomorphologic approach employing Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) DEM and satellite image data (ASTER and LANDSAT). Supervised classification of satellite images is implemented to characterize land cover types. Moreover, the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) is undertaken to identify moist surface o...

When catastrophic earthquakes happen and affect cities and settlements, immediate and efficient actions are required which ensure the minimization of the damage and loss of human lives. Responding local and national authorities should be provided in advance with information and maps where the highest damages due to unfavourable, local site conditions and earthquake related secondary effects suc...

Methods: logical structural analysis, system-functional approach, comparative analysis. The material for theoretical understanding problem was ideas J. Baudrillard E. Cassirer. Results: revealed that consum...

Features are increments in program functionality and are the building blocks of product lines. Typical implementation of features using Object Oriented techniques commonly crosscuts several classes and interfaces. There exist many techniques that implement crosscuts, of which Aspect Oriented ones distinguish themselves by their support of dynamic crosscuts expressed with advice. Despite being a...
