Religion service is one the topics that geographical people have been focusing on. This takes place through being aware of their division, existence and abilities with attempts to mention disadvantages. These services in our researching area consists 10 Friday mosques,6 mosques, 4 halls used for religion celebrations 6 cemeteries. In this paper it has attempted know extent which these places se...

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...

Mobile Geographical Information System (Mobile GIS) is a Geographical Information System based on mobile computing and mobile Internet. It is not a conventional GIS modified to operate on a smaller computer, but an extension of Web GIS to mobile Internet including wireless Internet/Intranet and mobile communication network. But architectures of Web GIS are unsuitable for Mobile GIS, because of ...

Since 1996 GRASS is used in GIS classes at the Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile ed Ambientale of the Università di Trento. This paper describes the potential of this GIS, with freely available code, in Geographical Information Systems education, both for university courses and professional training. The use of GRASS offers several advantages: the software is accessible without licensing worrie...

In this article, we describe two software design patterns that can be reused in the design of object-oriented geographical information systems (GIS). The first of them, called Spatial Object, captures the common structure and dynamics of the spatial entities represented in a GIS. The second one, called Spatial Graph, provides a solution to REVISTA COLOMBIANA DE COMPUTACIÓN Volumen 1, número 1 P...

An evaluation was conducted on a web-based e-learning system designed to facilitate integration of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) into the Civil Engineering curriculum. The principal goals of the evaluation were to determine the overall effectiveness of the system and to better understand underlying learning processes. Data were collected from 80 students who participated in a computer ...

The objective of the research reported here is to develop a Multimodal 3D Geographical Information Systems (GIS) with haptic interface. In 3D environments, the complex spatial relationship between the entities and the influence of the light and shadow make operations of objects difficult and inefficient. Haptic interaction is then considered as an effective auxiliary method. We studied the feas...

Disease maps have been playing a key descriptive role in epidemiology. Hence, they are useful tools for identification of areas of the true underlying geographical distribution of the disease incidences. The development of information system technology over the last 30 years has provided a powerful ability to examine spatial patterns, so geographical information systems (GIS) are begun to use i...

Continuous technological development of information systems provide an extensive range of services impacting on upgrading performance and diminishing expenses by utilizing GPS system on vehicle monitoring. Due to positive impact, GPS utilization has been widely applied into the many government departments and institutions, meanwhile used from private businesses, as well. Services derived from u...
