Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) have been identified essential for environmental management and development activities around the world. Meanwhile, development of frameworks to monitor and evaluate SDIs is currently an important research area. This study proposes Balanced Scorecard (BSC) as a framework for evaluation and monitoring the implementation of SDIs. The concept and advantages of B...

The term Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) was defined in the nineties as a set of policies, technologies and institutional arrangements for improving the availability and accessibility of spatial data and information. SDIs are typically driven by governmental organizations, and thus follow top-down structures based on regulations and agreements. The drawback is that it renders SDIs less easily...

The theory of hyperstructures has been introduced byMarty in 1934 during the 8th Congress of the Scandinavian Mathematicians [4]. Marty introduced the notion of a hypergroup and since then many researchers have worked on this new topic of modern algebra and developed it. The notion of a hyperfield and a hyperring was studied first by Krasner [2] and then some authors followed him, for example, ...

there are several kinds of hyperrings, for example, krasnerhyperrings, multiplicative hyperring, general hyperrings and$h_v$-rings. in a multiplicative hyperring, the multiplication isa hyperoperation, while the addition is a binary operation. in this paper, the notion of derivation on multiplicative hyperrings is introduced and some related properties are investigated. {bf keywords:} multiplic...

Let R be a Γ-hyperring and M be an Γ-hypermodule over R. We introduce and study fuzzy RΓ-hypermodules. Also, we associate a Γhypermodule to every fuzzy Γ-hypermodule and investigate its basic properties.

This study proposes an innovative integrated method for evaluating the evacuation and rescue capabilities of open spaces through a case study in Wuhan, China. A dual-scenario network analysis model was set up to calculate travel time among communities, open spaces, and rescue facilities during peak and non-peak hours. The distribution of traffic flow was derived on the basis of a gravity model ...

From Information Highway, Spatial Information Infrastructure (SDI) to Digital Earth, the requirement from the user raised new chances and challenges to GIS software. As a part of Digital Earth, the core of Digital China is SDI of the country and that of all levels of administrative regions. This paper discusses the requirement of GIS software system for the construction of SDIs of China in deta...

An M-polysymmetrical hyperring $(R,+,cdot )$ is an algebraic system, where $(R,+)$ is an M-polysymmetrical hypergroup, $(R,cdot )$ is a semigroup and $cdot$ is bilaterally distributive over $+$. In this paper, we introduce the concept of hyperideals of an M-polysymmetrical hyperring and by using this concept, we construct an ordinary quotient ring. Finally, the fundamental theorem of homomorphi...

A grid is concerned with the integration, virtualization, and management of services and resources in a distributed, heterogeneous environment that supports virtual organizations across traditional administrative and organizational domains. Spatial data infrastructures (SDI) aim to make spatial data from multiple sources available and usable to as wide an audience as possible. The first SDIs of...

Inspired by the concept of regular local rings in classical algebra, this article we initiate study parameter elements a commutative Noetherian hyperring. These provide deep connection between dimension hyperring and its primary hyperideals. Then, our focusses on R, with maximal hyperideal M, having property that R is equal to vectorial hyperspace MM2 over hyperfield RM. Finally, using hyperrin...
