Geography Markup Language (GML) is an XML application that provides a standard way to represent geographic information. GML is developed and maintained by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), which is an international consortium consisting of more than 250 members from industry, government, and university departments. Many of the conceptual models described in the ISO 19100 series of geomatics...

India witnessed increased flooding incidences during recent past especially in urban areas reportedly since Mumbai (2005) as a mega disaster. Other South Asian cities like Dhaka, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, besides many other cities in India, are also reportedly been affected by frequent floods. Flood risk in urban areas are attributed to hazards accelerated by growth in terms of population, housing...

Archaeological sites have been subjected to preservation efforts due their significant historical and cultural value, as well vulnerability. Several advanced digital imageries modeling technologies proposed in the literature adopted practice obtain accurate data required manage restore archaeological sites. This study proposes an integrated collection analysis methodology combining aerial close...

Abstract In this paper, the advantages achievable from use of two prototype systems that are being developed to increase safety and security in ports shown. Both start by monitoring environmental parameters harbors, then process data acquired. The first system has been conceived be helpful port communities (port authorities, pilots) optimize harbor waterside management (ship’s navigation cargo,...

Spatial data mining fulfills real needs of many geomatic applications. It allows taking advantage of the growing availability of geographically referenced data and their potential richness. This includes the risk analysis linked to a territory such as epidemic risk or traffic accident risk in the road network. This work deals with the method of decision tree for spatial data classification. Thi...

This work reports the results obtained over several years of research into the application of different geomatic techniques in the field of civil engineering and, in particular, in their application to the management of road systems and associated structures. Among the main advances obtained are the quantification of parameters during the inventorying and inspection of infrastructures, the metr...
