Quality evaluation of urban environment is an integral part of efficient urban environment planning and management. The development of fuzzy set theory (FST) and the introduction of FST to the urban study field attempts to incorporate the gradual variation and avoid loss of information. Urban environmental quality assessment pertain to interpretation and forecast of the urban environmental qual...

Seismic Resilience Assessment of Tehran's Southern Water Transmission Pipeline Using GIS-based Analyses

(1 Structure Engineering Lab, Chongqing Jiaotong University, No.66 Xuefu Road Nan’an District Chongqing China ,China,400074) (2 School of Civil Engineering & Archtecture, Chongqing Jiaotong University, No.66 Xuefu Road Nan’an District Chongqing China ,China,400074) Abstract: This paper based on GIS land suitable assessment principle and method, use supermap to analysis suitability of crop land ...

In this paper we describe the analysis framework system GEOAIDA with view of an application for a versatile and efficient quality assessment of geodata. GEOAIDA allows to develop image analysis strategies for complex object class definitions being provided by different GIS databases. The image analysis strategy and GIS data model can be expressed in tree-like semantic networks. The multi-hierar...

The implementation of site-wide corrective action using risk-based decision making at large and complex industrial, energy or defense facilities presents a number of challenges. To address these challenges, a spatial environmental risk assessment methodology has been developed by connecting Geographic Information Systems (GIS), relational databases and spreadsheets. The methodology is based on ...

An integrated approach with remote sensing, GIS and traditional fieldwork techniques was adopted to assess the groundwater potential in the central highlands of Eritrea. Digitally enhanced color composites and panchromatic images of Landsat TM and Spot were interpreted and thematic maps on lithology and lineaments prepared. Structural features were measured in the field and orientations compare...

The foundation for the development of GIS throughout a local government is cadastral GIS applications. The applications need to maintain the cadastral data known as the tax assessment role, to evaluate land values including buildings and physical structures. Because the current 2D Cadastre systems with 3D visualizations (ArcScene) is a framework to support comprehensive land-related information...

Geospatial technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) have been widely used in land resources survey and environmental monitoring. Assessment and monitoring of natural resources like land, soil, water and vegetation and socio-economic conditions and integrating them in a spatial information platform like GIS will facilitate the effective management of land resou...

Dealing with LIDAR data in the context of database management systems calls for a re-assessment of their functionality, performance, and storage/processing limitations. The territory for efficient and scalable processing of LIDAR repositories using GIS enabled database systems is still largely unexplored. Bringing together hard core database management experts and GIS application developers is ...

This paper characterizes the requirements of geographic information systems (GIS) middleware and its components for dynamic registering and discovering of spatial services specifically for collaborative modeling in environmental planning. The paper explores the role of Web services with respect to implementation standard and protocols and identifies implementation features for exposing distribu...
