Application of Arc-GIS for Zoning Occupational Exposure Levels to Respirable Crystalline Silica in Crushing Factories

Today's Geographic Information System (Gis) includes a multi-user database management system (Dbms) and is embedded in a network environment. The Dbms gives each individual the impression of being the only user|allowing people to work independently but explicitly preventing collaboration with others. An alternative approach is provided by Computer Supported Co-operative Work (Cscw) applications...

In recent years, geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing using has increased to estimate runoff catchment. In this research, runoff curve number maps for captive catchment of Tehran by helping GIS and also remote sensing which based on factors such as vegetation, lands using, group of soil hydrology and hydrological conditions were obtained. Runoff curve numbers map was obtained...

This paper explores the potential for geographical information system technology in defining some variables influencing the use of primary care medical services. Eighteen general practices in Scotland contributed to a study examining the accessibility of their services and their patients' use of the local Accident and Emergency Department. Geo-referencing of information was carried out through ...

Sharing data between GIS software (Arc/Info) and Traffic Demand Modeling Software (EMME/2) has long been an issue of interest to traffic engineers. A literature review and evaluation of current efforts on the data exchange is given in this paper. The authors also developed their own economical method to realize the data transform through Matlab programming. As a practice, a model of the truck f...

We use the Global Multi-resolution Terrain Elevation Data 2010 (GMTED, 7.5 arc-seconds) and Landsat Maps Global Surface Water (GSW, 1 arc-seconds) processed by GRASS-GIS hydrological modules to derive a fully standardized stream network. The GSW water occurrence was burned into the GMTED surface to force the drainage direction, thereby directing the stream network to pass through the observed w...

The rock strata of Cretaceous sedimentary system represented by Aptian to Maastrichtian age occurs as isolated patches outcropping in the western margin of the Cauvery Basin bordering the Archaean granite and gneiss basement. The Cretaceous system is well known as “Cretaceous of Trichinopoly” containing diverse fauna and flora including dinosaur remains, commercially exploitable limestone, lign...
