The objective of this paper is to present a methodology for the integration Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) microclimate simulation and Geographic Information System (GIS). first workflow involves attribution spatial coordinates point data extracted from CFD, implementation an SQLite database, connection database visualise use information on environmental comfort variables. second georeferen...

The utilization of urban green zones forms a major part of urban sustainability in the context of the improvement of quality of life of the citizens. Within the policy for sustainable management of urban green zones, the tools that are used effectively are new technologies such as web databases, web DSS, GIS and environmental impact prediction model. This paper presents the geodatabase, which w...

The Mediterranean region is a hot spot for climate change, and cities of this area will be exposed to both increasing temperatures decreasing precipitations. Green Infrastructures (GIs) can lower urban through evapotranspiration with an adequate soil moisture content. Grey water reuse guarantee the right content reduce freshwater exploitation. In order test effectiveness on reducing air tempera...

Guangxi Province is one of the regions more serious desertification. This paper using ENVI image processing system, according to remote sensing image interpretation target mark and image spectral characteristics, found remote sensing interpretation model of the background information of forest, shrub and grass, agricultural land, surface water, towns, roads from TM and ETM data from 1988 to 200...

Green urban infrastructures have a significant impact on climate mitigation, indoor and outdoor thermal comfort energy performance of buildings. In this paper, conditions saving for space heating cooling were investigated before after the use roof-integrated green technologies. Existing models tools applied to an area located in Turin (Italy). CitySim, ENVI-met SOLWEIG GIS-based model used eval...

The most widely known remote-sensing data are satellite images (typically LANDSAT or other visible imagery), which are used in the geosciences for a multitude of applications, including landuse, urbanization, sea-ice expansion, to name only a few. Commonly, these remote-sensing data are analyzed with the help of commercial software systems (eg. ENVI, ERDAS-IMAGINE). Analysis methods employ the ...

Mobility is the key to contemporary life. While most research activities during recent years concentrated on the representation and modeling of moving objects within GIS environments, analysis tasks have been sorely neglected, especially in the field of environmental GIS. This paper provides an overview of the sparse analysis methods available for dynamic point objects. The methods are classifi...

The aim of this study was to give a comprehensive archaeological investigation for Penghu’s stone tidal weirs (STWs) based on both Google Earth and GIS. Firstly, this study uses GoogleEarth Pro tools to clip a GeoEye-1 image (acquisition date: 22/07/2013) and a WorldView-2 image (acquisition date: 25/01/2014) for Chipei Island and Husi Island, respectively, and save them at a “premium resolutio...

The large amount of images available today, thanks to the increasing of the number of orbiting EO satellites (Earth Observation Systems), which are able to provide information of every region of the Earth, represents an indispensable instrument for monitoring any terrestrial ecosystem. EO systems allow to detect and follow fast changing phenomena (like natural and anthropic disasters) providing...
