The Function of Inland Shipping on Economic Supporting Activities of the South Kalimantan Community 1980-2000

The main problem examined in this research is how the function of inland shipping is to support the economic activities of the people of South Kalimantan in 1950-1970 The results of the research show that the river network has become the economic lifeblood of the population where most of their economic activities are carried out through and on rivers due to shipping activities. Rivers cannot be separated from their role as trade routes. River shipping has an important role in transporting trade goods. Agricultural products and forest products are one of the main commodities transported via river shipping. As a means of traffic, rivers play a role in opening up the isolation of inland areas that cannot be passed by land. The method used in this research uses the historical method through the Heuristic stage (data collection), internal and external criticism of the data obtained, interpretation and historiography of historical writing based on the data that has been obtained according to the researcher's objectives. The novelty of this research is that previous research only revealed the phenomenon of river shipping broadly, then this research focuses on the economic sector. It can be concluded that with the times and the rapid development of technology, the transportation sector has developed. The widespread development of land transportation facilities by creating land roads and bridges to connect between regions can shorten distances and travel times. However, it even has an impact on the economic sector through water transportation routes.

The Geometric Redesign of Horizontal Curved Using AutoCAD Civil 3D®: A Case Jalan Garuda – Jalan Moh. Hatta, Tasikmalaya West Java

Highways are needed because they are the most widely used transportation infrastructure to support the economy and daily human activities that function to pass traffic on it quickly, safely, and comfortably. In today's world of rapid digital improvement, road planning using AutoCAD Civil 3D® results in a more efficient, accurate, and time-saving road planning process than road planning using manual methods. The horizontal alignment of the road determines the location of the road in question. The horizontal alignment has three geometric components: tangent, curve, and transition between straight line and arch. The purpose of writing this paper is to plan the geometric road on the North Ring Road section Jalan Garuda - Jalan Moh. Hatta in the northern area of Tasikmalaya, West Java. The road is planned to add land transportation facilities and connect the Cibeureum District - Cipedes District. The length of the road section is 1016 m or 1,016 km (STA 0+000 – STA 1+016.79).

FACTORS CAUSED ROAD DAMAGE BANDA ACEH - MEDAN STA 481+000 - STA 483+000

Roads are land transportation facilities that are very important in facilitating economic relations activities, both between one city and another. Good road conditions will facilitate the movement of people in relationships and other social activities. Meanwhile, if there is road damage, it will not only hinder economic and social activities, but accidents can occur. Many factors cause road damage, including weather, weather on the road surface when it rains, scorching heat in the dry season, average daily traffic volume (LHR), and vehicles that have a number of loads or overloads (Overloading). From the results of the study, the dominant type of damage on the Banda Aceh-Medan road STA 481+000-STA 483+000 sorted from the largest to the smallest percentage is Alligator Cracking, the second is Longitudinal Cracks, the third is Longitudinal Cracks.

The State of River Transportation after the Development of Land Transport in East Sumatera 1900-1942

The ports’ sites on the river bank were closely related to the river, as the primary and easy means of transportation. Through rivers, the crops from upstream were brought to downstream to be traded and exported abroad, especially to Penang. On the other hand, it was also through the river that the goods were imported from downstream to upstream. In other words, with the absence of land transport, the rivers became very dominant. However, after the presence of plantations, the abundant crops required a more efficient and effective transportation, therefore, the development of land transport, for instance railroad and highway, were paramount. The construction of land transportation facilities certainly had an impact on river transportation. The impact was that river transportation was increasingly abandoned because it was ineffective and inefficient. However, there were several rivers that remained became the most important means of transportation.

Houseboats in Kerala - Constructional Features and Environmental Issues

Kerala Houseboats (Riceboats) or kettuvallam are country boats that were used in early days for transport of goods from isolated interior villages of Kerala backwater area to the towns like Alleppey, Kollam , Cochin and Kottayam. With the advent of land transport facilities, gradually the kettuvalloms went off the scene. Now they are back again as a major tourist attraction as a modern moving boat house. They form a huge source of revenue and prosperity for the region. It is a well-known fact that only around 100 of the 600-plus houseboats operating in the Vembanad Lake and the surrounding canals and rivers have valid Pollution Control Certificates (PCC) since they have onboard sewage treatment facilities. Houseboats satisfying the essential conditions and adhering to eco-friendly measures will be awarded the Green Palm Certificate, the top classification awarded by the Department of tourism. The sustainability of eco-tourism lays in the four main areas - Environment - Energy - Water - Propulsion. Less fuel/running cost, no oil or diesel contamination into backwaters, no untreated sewage into backwater, reduction in noise pollution are the ways to achieve dream for a green and pleasing future in Kerala backwater and save the same for the next generation.

Changes in Foreign Trade from the Customs Ports of Northeast Scotland, 1743-1826

For much of the historical period, seaborne trade was of great significance to the northeast of Scotland and this paper considers the changes which took place in the foreign trade conducted through the region's ports in the period 1743-1826. It was a time when economic expansion was taking place as a result of new developments in agriculture and industry and if, in the early years, there was a close similarity to the economy and contacts already established in the 17th century, by the end of the period under study the goods traded and the people involved bore a greater resemblance to the region as it was known in the later 19th and early 20th centuries. The northeast was, traditionally, made up of the old counties of Aberdeenshire , Banffshire and Kincardineshire and, as was the case elsewhere in the country until investment was made in the toll road system, land transport facilities were both limited and expensive. In contrast, the movement of goods by sea was a relatively simple matter especially as the region had an extensive seaboard and many towns and villages had grown up at locations where shelter was available along an otherwise less than hospitable coastline. Archaeological evidence and early historical records indicate that trading contacts had long existed with other parts of Scotland, eastern England and northern Europe. By the 17th century these links had intensified, with eastern Scotland (especially the Firth of Forth), Norway, the Low Countries and the Baltic States being of particular importance. From the late 17th century onwards the construction of improved harbour facilities within the northeast became increasingly important in order to cater for the growing maritime trade of the region. During the 18th and 19th centuries the area's economy developed rapidly and although the merchants and shipowners of Aberdeen played a critical part in this growth, many of the small coastal burghs also had cargoes arriving from, or being dispatched to ports at home and abroad. Unfortunately few harbour registers appear to exist (with the exception of Aberdeen) relating to ship movements at individual harbours. As a result it difficult to assess the relative importance of individual ports within the region or to obtain accurate details of the cargoes imported and exported. Until later in the 19th century government statistics in Scotland did not record coastal shipments or vessels sailing in ballast and hence it is difficult to obtain any indication of the relative importance of coastal traffic unless relevant statistics were recorded by local writers. This lack of information is doubly unfortunate as it covers a period of time when it is known that coastal trade increased rapidly. Fortunately, customs records relating to foreign trade do exist and from them it is possible to gain considerable insight into the changes which took place as the country experienced rapid economic development in the 18th and early 19th centuries.

A Land Transportation Bomb Threat Training Simulator

The large numbers of passengers in close proximity in land transportation facilities present attractive targets for terrorist attacks. Land transportation facilities are also particularly susceptible to operational disruption, as problems in one node can affect an entire transportation network. This paper describes an effort to mitigate the operational disruption that can be caused by bombs and bomb threats targeted towards these types of transportation facilities. The authors develop an interactive multimedia bomb threat training simulator for land transportation facilities. With the simulator, land transportation facility personnel can receive simulated bomb threats, gather information, and decide whether to ignore the threat, conduct a search for suspect devices, or evacuate the facility. Because this training is simulated, users can receive realistic bomb threat training that might not otherwise be possible due to time, cost, or operational considerations. Quantitative training validation analysis indicates improved bomb threat response skills as a result of training with the simulator.

NORTH‐SOUTH ENERGY RESOURCE TRANSFERS IN CHINA AND THE PORT INTERMEDIARY

AbstractA pressing problem confronting China is that of energy supply. Despite a huge endowment of energy minerals, the country must tackle the thorny issue of an alarming divide between the regions replete with energy and those devoid of it. Exacerbating die mismatch is die fact that the energy‐deficient regions are precisely die ones experiencing the most dramatic growth. Only a diorough revamping of transport infrastructure, in which ports and north‐soudi coastwise shipping play a seminal role, can hope to eliminate the energy imbalance existing between supplying and consuming regions. Bodi types of regions are expected to benefit in consequence: die former on die strength of interregional energy exports; die latter on die basis of international product exports. The part played by ports and associated land transport facilities is aired in this article.

Environmental considerations of land transport in developing countries (part 2)

Developing countries have unique problems and needs which must be considered when attempting to identify and evaluate the environmental impacts of land transport. This paper presents a review of the relevant literature that can be used to identify, evaluate and mitigate environmental impacts of land transport facilities (development and operation) in developing countries. After examining the relevant characteristics of land transport development in such countries, the paper discusses the environmental effects.
