GIS and soil property-based development of runoff modelling to assess the capacity of urban drainage systems for flash floods

The extreme precipitation resulting from climate change has been causing increasingly serious damage in populated areas over the past 10–15 years. The torrents of flash floods cause significant financial damage to both the natural environment and man-made structures (such as roads and bridges). The determination of the physical geographic parameters of this phenomenon (e.g. the amount of runoff water) is significantly affected by technical uncertainties, usually due to the lack of monitoring systems. However, the application of modern geospatial tools can improve the quality of input data needed for runoff modelling. In the present study, an existing runoff model (the Stowe model) developed by ESRI was further enhanced with field measurements, soil parameters, GIS, and remote sensing data, resulting in the creation of the model named ME-Hydrograph. Finally, the two models were compared, and we examined the capacity of an urban stormwater drainage system through surface runoff modelling. The aim of the research was to create a runoff model that can be easily and quickly used. The application of this geospatial model presented in the study can be useful not only in the examination of urban stormwater drainage but also in contributing to the understanding and management of flash floods that occur in Hungary. Additionally, it can aid in the development of risk mapping related to flash floods in the country.

The integration of GIS location‐based APIs and urban growth modeling for improved geographic access to hospital services

AbstractThis article aims to present an integration model of GIS with open data sourced from application programming interface (API) as a solution for the location set covering problem (LSCP) with an urban land dynamics model. The development of GIS which is increasingly advanced makes traditional GIS transition in the open data era to become more modern. One of the benefits is to help urban planners in determining the allocation of health facilities such as hospitals. This research takes the case of hospital service coverage during emergencies, especially during the COVID‐19 extraordinary event in Metropolitan Semarang, Indonesia. In addition to utilizing API‐base Location, the model process also uses a Cellular Automata‐based land use prediction model. Thus, the facility location plan not only considers service coverage but also land use growth which is a reflection of population growth. To analyze the problem of inequity of hospital services, this research combined the location‐based APIs‐based service area model with the urban growth model to evaluate the existing condition and predict the future of hospital service demand. It also uses the emergency standard with a maximum service distance of 1500 m and a maximum travel time of 7 min. The model confirmed that there are still critical spots not served by hospitals in Semarang City. According to the concept of health and place, it is essential to recommend adding two hospitals in unserved areas so that services are more evenly distributed in the future, especially in emergencies.

Preparation of the Digital Elevation Model using open source Geographic Information Systems tools for 3D prints

Abstract The presentation of landforms in two-dimensional graphics may not always be clear and understandable to every viewer. The presentation of landforms, as well as other types of characteristics and issues in three-dimensional space can bring many advantages in the process of better understanding of the surrounding reality. The primary purpose of this research is to put forward a simple scheme, accessible to any Geographic Information Systems user, for generating 3D physical terrain models for any area of the Earth. The presented scheme can be used anywhere in the world, however, for the purpose of illustrating its capabilities, a case study of a selected area – the Tatra Mountain range – was conducted in this paper. As part of the study, a 3D model was developed based on a Digital Elevation Model obtained from an open source, i.e. MapTiler. An indisputable advantage of the study is that the designed process flow in its structure takes into account only generally available tools and software (the model was prepared in the QGIS program). However, a certain limitation is the process of printing itself, which depends on the availability of specialized printing equipment. In this case study, FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) technology was used for printing, and the model itself was prepared on a Creality Ender 7 printer. The proposed flowchart, on the one hand, unifies and simplifies the process of creating physical 3D models, while on the other hand, it provides opportunities for GIS users and developers to develop the proposed solution.

The goals of land use optimization in Russia

The land reform of the 1990s created certain economic and environmental prerequisites for efficient land use. However, they are not implemented due to the complete liberalization of the market and the disengagement of the State from land management, the termination of state land administration. Adjustment of the economic course and strategic planning are considered as the initial condition for land use rationalization and further transformations. As a planning tool, it is proposed to implement regional models of agro-industrial production in development of previously used agricultural management systems based on the development of regional GIS for agroecological land assessment and projecting of adaptive landscape farming systems in M 1 : 100 000. For this purpose, a system of integrated land assessment has been developed, and the experience of land administration projecting, landscape planning, and projecting of adaptive landscape farming systems has been generalized. On the basis of its integration, it is planned to develop new land administration on a landscape basis, and, subsequently, agricultural landscapes projecting.

Design and Implementation of Greening Management System Based on GIS

Greening is an indispensable part of the process of urbanization. In the process of social progress and scientific and technological development, the demand for urban greening management is growing, and the difficulty is also improving. The traditional greening management method is cumbersome and the data is not accurate enough to meet the management needs of the current era. Therefore, informatization has gradually become the mainstream of greening management. Under this background, this system starts from the two core modules of plant irrigation and daily maintenance in traditional greening management, expands and extends the functions of the system, and finally completes the greening management system based on GIS design and development through field investigation of the greening management on campus and demand analysis combined with this situation. The system mainly has five functional modules: regional management, water volume monitoring, problem reporting, task processing and information summary. The users of the greening management system can query the information and attributes of the greening area, monitor the irrigation water volume, deal with the problems occurred in the greening area, and view the staff's work progress and records on the PC side. At the same time, the system has also been developed on the mobile terminal, which improves the efficiency of greening management.

Geoenvironmental GIS development to investigate Landslides and Slope Instability along Frontal zone of Central Himalaya

The Frontal Himalayan terrain comprises of Lesser Himalaya and Siwalik Hills; is highly susceptible to landslide disaster due to active tectonics, scrappy geology, steep slope, and reshaping geomorphology. Besides that, hydrological impacts of land use degradation and climate change enhancing the vulnerability of the terrain. Keep in view this; the Dabka watershed, falls in frontal zone of central Himalaya has been selected for case illustration. Geospatial analysis advocates that the areas of the most stressed geo-environment (comprises of very steep slopes above 30°, geology of Lower Krol and Lariakanta formation, geomorphology of moist areas and debris sites and land use of barren land) have high density (5–10 landsides km2) of landslides whereas the areas of least stressed geo-environment (comprises of gentle slopes below 10°, geology of Kailakhan and Siwalik formation, geomorphology of depositional terraces and land use of dense forest) have low density of landslides (2 landsides km2). Out of total 340 landslides in the region, 198 are active landsides whereas 51 and 91 are reactivated and old landsides respectively. Geospatial analysis of landslide areas reveals that across the region total 804.33 ​ha land has been degraded by landslides which account for 11.65% of the total area of the Dabka watershed. The wedge failure analysis suggests that there are 3–4 sets of rock joints across the region and most of the sites are unsafe as their safety factors are less than 1.

A service-oriented collaborative approach to disaster decision support by integrating geospatial resources and task chain

The benefits of geospatial technologies in disaster management have reached a consensus in the international community. However, immediate integration and orchestration of the rich geospatial resources (data, algorithms, computing resources, etc.) in an emergency remain challenging due to the four gaps: encoding gap, source gap, knowledge gap, and network gap. Aiming to bridge the “resource islands”, we propose a service-oriented collaborative approach to disaster decision support by integrating geospatial resources and task chain as domain knowledge into a distributed environment. Data contributors, model contributors, GIS developers, and business experts collaboratively build a spatial decision support system (SDSS) that integrates various resources and knowledge. When disaster strikes, responders collaboratively perform emergency tasks to deliver the right information to the right person at the right time by leveraging the SDSS. The proposed approach is implemented as a Geospatial service platform for Disaster Response (GeoDR). Four joint exercises and the operation in relevant institutions in China demonstrate its capability to facilitate timely and effective responses to natural disasters.
