The population and urbanization of Morocco are increasing very rapidly. They have risenin large cities due to heavy immigration rate from rural areas to accessjob opportunities, better education, and better health facilities. Casablanca has the most affected land use changes in Morocco because of the immigration. This paper presents anintegrated study of land use change in this city from 1986 until 2011 using topographic map sheets (1986) and satellite image (2011). The layers of landuse map (1986) were obtainedby digitization technique in ARCGIS 9.3 software. Supervised classification methodology has been employed using maximum likelihood technique in ERDAS IMAGINE (2011) to extract from the satellite image four classes which were categorized into, built-up area, public green spaces, agricultural land and water bodies. The totalarea of each class was estimated by using geometry tools of ArcGISsoftware to compare land use changes between 1986 and 2011.

Marco Jacobs, Vice President of Marketing at videantis, presents the "3D from 2D: Theory, Implementation, and Applications of Structure from Motion" tutorial at the May 2015 Embedded Vision Summit.
Structure from motion uses a unique combination of algorithms that extract depth information using a single 2D moving camera. Using a calibrated camera, feature detection, and feature tracking, the algorithms calculate an accurate camera pose and a 3D point cloud representing the surrounding scene.
This 3D scene information can be used in many ways, such as for automated car parking, augmented reality, and positioning. Marco introduces the theory behind structure from motion, provides some representative applications that use it, and explores an efficient implementation for embedded applications.

Underwater,underground and surface investigationAndrei Tanasie
The geological structure and the pshysical-mechanical characteristics of the underground play an important role in designing buildings. Using direct methods such as open digging, drilling, sampling for laboratory tests, etc. and indirect geophysical methods, these characteristics can be determined with high precision. This method helps in making resistance and economical calculation.
This presentation about photogrammetry survey, this presentation gives a complete detail of photogrammetry survey. Photogrammetry survey is a powerful technique used in various industries to obtain accurate measurements and three-dimensional (3D) data from photographs. It involves the process of extracting precise geometric information from images using specialized software, providing a cost-effective and efficient method for capturing and analysing spatial data.

Geodetic and seismological analysis of the January 26th, 2014 Cephalonia Isla...Demitris Anastasiou
On January 26, 2014 a strong earthquake of magnitude Mw=5.8 occurred on Cephalonia Island followed by a similar magnitude earthquake Mw=5.7 one week later on February 3, 2014. Extensive structural damages, landslides and many damages on the islands' main roads, harbour and airport caused mainly on the western and central part of the island. The first event located 2km eastern of Lixouri town and was followed five hours later by a strong aftershock of magnitude Mw=5.3. The second strong earthquake located in the north part of Paliki eninsula North-East Cephalonia). Geodetic data of six permanent GNSS stations were available and analysed in this study both in pro and post seismic terms, using 30sec and 1Hz data where available. The time series analysis shows the effect of each event at nearby stations. Seismological data are used to determine the focal mechanisms of the earthquake sequence and an attempt to investigate the homogeneity of the mechanisms and the stress field of the area is presented in the study. Geodetic analysis and seismological results are used to understand the mechanism of the events.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.
