Teacher Educators’ and Student Teachers’ Attitude towards Teacher Education P...IJSRP Journal
Attitudes vary at different times of one’s life and are usually determined by several factors such as work environment, job satisfaction and status of the profession. Both student-teachers’ and teacher-educators’ attitudes may affect the quality of teacher preparation program and finally quality of the teacher either positively or negatively. This paper is a focus on the attitude of teacher educators and student teachers towards teacher education programmes in universities. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. The study sample consisted of Bachelor of Education fourth year students drawn from three Public universities and three Private universities, Teacher Educators and Heads of Departments from the faculty of Education. Stratified random sampling was used to select the universities, student-teachers and Teacher Educators. Data was collected using questionnaires, interview schedules, observation checklists and documents analysis. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics. The study found that a large percentage of the respondents portrayed a negative attitude of teacher education programmes. This may be to the fact that most student teachers and teacher educators enrolled in these programmes, do not have teaching as their professional interest thus join by circumstance. The study recommends the need to conduct screening of individuals before admission in teacher education programmes so as to ensure that only those who are interested and committed to teaching as a profession are enrolled. Keywords: Attitude, Teacher Education Programmes, Enrollment, Teacher Educators, Student Teachers, Public University, Private University
Development of a Novel Robust Differential Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT...IJSRP Journal
The use of photovoltaic (PV) systems is increasingly growing in importance since they involve an exploitation of solar radiation constituting an energy source which is renewable, available in most places, and pollution-free. Despite their numerous advantages, PV systems have two major drawbacks: low energy conversion efficiency and loss of energy due to variations in meteorological conditions; for this reason, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control techniques play a key role in exploiting the maximum energy caught by PV modules. The output characteristic of a photovoltaic array is nonlinear and changes with solar irradiation and the cell’s temperature. Therefore, a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique is needed to draw peak power from the solar array to maximize the produced energy. In this study we have analyzed the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) method and finding out a new and easier way to track maximum power point (MPP) and also our study is focused to overcome the drawbacks of MPPT. This research paper presents a novel MPP tracking method for tracking exact Maximum Power Point (MPP) if the irradiation or load changes.

Access to health care is considered to be of great importance for a person’s right to health. This paper attempts to highlight the spatial disparities in access to and use of rehabilitation services across Imathia’s area in Northern Greece. Our study is being focused on one defined geographical area, Imathia, in Macedonia in northern Greece. We defined a public general hospital as a local National Health System institution providing health services for the purpose of rehabilitation concerning patients with musculoskeletal disorders. The implementation of data included descriptive and concluding statistical processing. The spatial data was visualized in points and polygons. Most patients (60.5%) are from areas near to the hospital which means that there, is more concentration. The research focuses on spatial disparities and does not deal with their causes. As a consequence these findings raise important research questions for future investigation.
Does Electronic Medical Records make cost benefits to non-profit seeking heal...IJSRP Journal
Sri Lanka provides a free public health care service to its permanent residents. Currently Sri Lankan health care system is in the process of using EMR systems both public and private sector healthcare institutions. There are few published data available regarding cost-benefits of EMR in profit seeking institutes in some countries and no published data on non-profit seeking institutes. Therefore, main objective of the study is to perform a cost benefit analysis (CBA) of EMRs in the public health care system in Sri Lanka and secondary objectives are to evaluate the perception of EMRs among patients, health care professionals and supporting staff. Methodology: Two Sri Lankan government hospitals’ OPDs; hospitals belong to Type A divisional category, were selected for the study. Those two hospitals were named as Hospital D and Hospital AR. Hospital D has an EMR system and hospital AR has traditional paper-based recording. A modified cost- benefit analysis was done using achievable costs and benefits. Meanwhile, three different questionnaires were distributed among health care professionals, supporting staff and patients to determine their perception on EMRs. Results: This study found that Benefits-to-Costs ratio of OPD of the hospital D for the year 2015 was 0.269 and for hospital AR was 0.0589. From CBA four basic cost reductions were found as costs for stationeries, patient queue waiting time, supporting staff number and indirect costs such as drug balancing. Health care professionals, supporting staff and patients had a positive perception on EMR systems. Conclusion: Implementing EMRs to Sri Lankan health care system leads to cost reductions. If Sri Lankan government implements an EMR system only in OPDs of government hospitals, it will lead to save millions of rupees. There are thirty-five, Type A divisional hospitals in Sri Lanka. If this EMR system is implemented only in OPDs, Sri Lankan public health care system would have saved Rs192 million ($ 1.3 million) in 2015.Finally, it can be concluded that implementing EMRs in non-profit seeking health care institutes lead to cost reductions and save money.

Design and Implementation a BPSK Modem and BER Measurement in AWGN ChannelIJSRP Journal
Modems, in the beginning, were used mainly to communicate between data terminals and a host computer. Later, the use of modems was extended to communicate between end computers. This required more speed and the data rates increased from 300 bps in early days to 28.8bps today. Today, transmission involves data compression techniques which increase the rates, error detection and error correction for more reliability. This research includes the design, implementation and simulation of a transmitter, a receiver of a BPSK based system. We implement a BPSK modem and BER measurement with an AWGN channel. We detect and count Error by this modem. With increasing SNR we reduce BER by the BPSK Modem.
Design of High pass and Low pass Filter using CMOS Operational Trans-conducta...IJSRP Journal
Low Power Consumption is the main target in today’s Technological aura and as Very large scale integrated circuit (VLSI) designing is very complex and it require much conceding nature to realise application precise objective. With increasing the efforts to reduce Power Consumption and to reduce W/L ratio, Low pass and high pass filter structure have widespread application and using CMOS Operational Trans-conductance amplifier gives capability to perform well in Nano-meter range as it has better control over short channel effect and other scaling problem like gate leakage, sub-threshold conduction. Low pass and high pass filter based on OTA for VHF and UHF frequency applications. At high frequencies, the OP AMP based active filters has limited performance. We cannot change the values of resistors and inductors but OTA-C filter provides ability to change their values by changing trans-conductance of OTA. The proposed filter consists of OTA and capacitors. This filter shows low sensitivity to passive components, low component count and ease in design. The simulations are done using Tanner EDA version 16.2 at 0.25nm technology.
Review on Epidemiology and Management of Faba Bean (Vicia fabae) Chocolate Sp...IJSRP Journal
Of all pulse crops grown in Ethiopia, faba beans stand 2nd after common beans and before chickpeas which are all considered to be the top export crops accounting 90% by volume and 85% total earnings. However, diseases such as chocolate spot, root rot and rust are the major biotic constraints affecting yield wherever the crop grows. Yield losses of up to 61% on susceptible cultivars and 30-50% under favorable conditions for chocolate spot were reported. Root rot was also recognized to cause complete crop loss during severe infections and yield loss may reach 100% in susceptible cultivars. Rust epidemics in addition identified to reduce faba bean yields with losses of up to 30%, while, in combination with chocolate spot, yield reductions of up to 50% have been reported. Control options for disease in general include high levels of resistant cultivars, planting good quality seed and fungicide applications integrated either with cropping system or early planting to manage faba bean chocolate spot. Integrated management was also reported to control faba bean root rot with the help of biocontrol agents. In this regard, soaking seeds in biocontrol agents (Bacillus megaterium and Trichoderma viride) and the use of Trichoderma harzianum as seed dressing or soil application with improved faba bean cultivars and fungicidal seed treatments consistently found to improve emergence and seed yield of faba bean. Artificially inoculated faba bean seedlings with the native antagonistic Bacillus isolates found to suppress black root rot. Integration of improved faba bean cultivars with protective fungicides application was also reported to gain higher monitory advantage. Similarly, faba bean-maize row intercropping and compost fertilization using host resistance and other crop management practices have found best to manage faba bean rust. In this review, developments discussed on management of chocolate
spot, root rot and rust of faba bean were focusing on an integrated management either through host resistance with cropping systems and fungicide applications or host resistance with biocontrol agents. However, almost all the earlier findings were mainly limited either to research stations or greenhouse and laboratory experiments. This is, therefore, the current review is initiated with the objective that future research works to explore these best practices under farmers’ field condition along with supplementation of greenhouse and laboratory experiments considering mass production of the locally identified indigenous biocontrol agents in particular for seed or soil borne diseases such as faba bean root rot.

Well Being, Fairness, and Supervisor’s Ability and Support IJSRP Journal
To maximize work outcomes and increase the opportunity for organizations to achieve their goals in today’s society, organizations must prioritize their employees’ well-being. Research suggests that several factors can impact employees including: affective well-being, employee perception of fairness, perception of supervisors’ skills and Family Supportive Supervisor Behaviors (FSSB). To investigate the relationship between employees' affective well-being, their perceptions of fairness, their perceived ability and FSSB, a study was conducted using a total of 395 participants, who were selected using convenience sampling. Participants completed a survey by answering three questionnaires, which measured the constructs, and the pertinent demographics. The instruments used were the Job-related Affective Well-being Scale (JAWS), the Equity/Fairness subscale from the International Personality Item Pool, the Ability subscale, and the Creative work-family management subscale from the Handbook of Management Scales, respectively. Results of this study found a moderate positive correlation between employees’ affective well-being and the following variables: perception of fairness (r=.301, p=.000), perceived supervisor’s ability (r=.401, p=.000), and FSSB (r=.377, p=.000), as well as between employees’ perception of fairness and managerial skills of their supervisors (r=.347, p=.000). Findings confirmed hypotheses and the relationship among variables. The study’s findings have implications for managers’ performance and for HR practices.

The Relationship Between Natural Resources and Sustainable Development IJSRP Journal
The sustainable development aims at raising the societies' standard of living by means of fulfilling the basic needs from the product the economic resources generated, particularly; the natural resources. These resources, by its nature; is limited and scarce and fall short in meeting all human needs at the same time, accordingly; the importance of optimal and fair use of natural resources in a way that satisfies the needs of the current generation, without affecting the needs of the generation to come. This could be achieved by good and rationalized planning in using natural resources to realize the sustainable development, taking into account the economic, environmental, and social dimensions. The most significant challenges the sustainable development encounters is the excessive exhaustion of using natural resources resultant out of lack of awareness in terms of scarcity of these resources and their importance in development. We recommend that the existing natural resources to be maintained, and other energy resourcesto be foundand usedusedduring the exceptional circumstance. Further, the awareness related to the rationalized use of natural resources should be outspread.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Quality defects in TMT Bars, Possible causes and Potential Solutions.PrashantGoswami42
Maintaining high-quality standards in the production of TMT bars is crucial for ensuring structural integrity in construction. Addressing common defects through careful monitoring, standardized processes, and advanced technology can significantly improve the quality of TMT bars. Continuous training and adherence to quality control measures will also play a pivotal role in minimizing these defects.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Abstract- The main focus of this study is to find appropriate and
stable solutions for representing the statistical data into map with
some special features. This research also includes the comparison
between different solutions for specific features. In this research I
have found three solutions using three different technologies
namely Oracle MapViewer, QGIS and AnyMap which are
different solutions with different specialties. Each solution has its
own specialty so we can choose any solution for representing the
statistical data into maps depending on our criteria’s.

I. INTRODUCTION
A map is a very powerful way to present data. It is much
more intuitive than presenting the same data in the form of
coordinates or text. Using the functionalities of spatial databases,
along with other Middleware tools, such spatial applications can
be developed that is capable to represent the statistical data into
maps in various ways. In this research work a spatial application
of a specific country will be designed and developed and it will
show statistical data on the map (Bar chart, Pie chart etc.) and
also it will show the five different layers of addresses (District,
county, sub-county, parish and villages) along with other
features. We need to find out some useful and stable solutions for
embedding statistical data into maps and Compare the solutions
with specific features and finally implement the appropriate
solution for the specific country.
II. OVERVIEW OF DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES
A. Oracle MapViewer
Oracle MapViewer is a very powerful and specialized tool for
rendering maps using spatial data managed by Oracle Spatial and
Graph or Oracle Locator (also referred to as
Locator).MapViewer offers tools that hide the difficulty of
spatial data queries and cartographic rendering. It can also deploy
in any Java EE container such as web logic server or glass fish or
Tomcat [1].
The prime benefit of MapViewer is its incorporation with Oracle
Spatial and Graph, Oracle Locator, and Oracle Fusion
Middleware. MapViewer cares two-dimensional vector
geometries stored in Oracle Spatial and Graph, as well as
GeoRaster data and data in the Oracle Spatial and Graph
topology and network data models. Oracle MapViewer is also an
Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)-compliant web map service
(WMS) and web map tile service (WMTS) server [1].
Figure 1: Basic flow of action in MapViewer [2]
• A Map rendering engine running in Oracle application
server: The rendering engine is visible as a servlet that
processes requests sent by client demands, draws the
proper data from spatial tables, and builds maps in a
variety of graphical formats (GIF,PNG, JPEG, or SVG),
which it then returns to the asking client. In addition to
the core mapping servlet, the Mapviewer server also
delivers a map cache server and a feature-of-interest
(FOI) server [3].
• Metadata Definitions: The Map definitions/ Metadata
are stored in the database. This is the place where we
can describe our map such as which table to use, how
maps should be rendered (Themes, Styles etc.) [3].
• Oracle Maps Application Programming Interfaces
(APIs): These APIs allow us to retrieve mapviewer
features from many different application development
environments. These APIs contain XML, Java, PL/SQL
and JavaScript (AJAX) interfaces. The Java API also
comprises JavaServer Pages (JSP) to ease the insertion
of maps in JSP [3].
• Map Builder Tool: A map builder is a standalone
program through which we are able to manage our
metadata stored in the database [3].

Oracle MapViewer is a part of Oracle Fusion Middleware.
Oracle MapViewer is a complete package for map rendering and
display statistical data on the map. The main benefit of Oracle
MapViewer is that it can be used both as online as well as
offline, because it has a suite of Application Programming
Interfaces (API’s) and Oracle Map. Map builder tool is another
excellent component of Oracle MapViewer which makes it easy
to manage metadata (define styles, themes, base maps) in a
spatial database. We can display statistical data in a various way
from MapViewer. From map builder tool we can define different
advanced styles (Bar chart, Pie chart, Bucket, Heat maps) and
themes associated with those styles and then render them as a
vector layer on the map. We do not need to depend on other
service provider for map rendering because Oracle MapViewer
has Oracle Map, which served cached map image tiles to the
client. MapViewer provides a nice platform where we can easily
define our own map rendering styles, themes etc. using map
builder. Oracle MapViewer is not a commercial solution, so that
we can use it without any cost.
B. QGIS
QGIS is a software program with a graphical user interface to
deploy the functionalities of Geographical Information System
(GIS). The QGIS application provides several tools to provide an
easy way to display map layers, map legends and so on. QGIS
application is free cost tool to work with geospatial data and
visualized the geospatial data according to our own requirements.
Through QGIS application we are able to work with various
spatial databases and display statistical data from database on the
map. QGIS can load vector data from different data sources and
also from shape files.
Figure 2: QGIS user interface
Geographical Information System (GIS):
Geographical Information System (GIS) is becoming an
increasingly important tool in environmental management, retail,
military, police, tourism and many other spheres of our daily
lives [4]. GIS is more than just software, and it refers to all
aspects of managing and using digital geographical data. A
common feature of GIS is that they allow us to associate
information (non-geographical data) with places (geographical
data) [5]. GIS Systems work with many different types of
data. Vector data is stored as a series of x,y coordinate pairs
inside the computer’s memory and Raster data are stored as a
grid of values [5].
A GIS consists of:
• Digital Data –– the geographical information that we
will view and analyzed using computer hardware and
software [5].
• Computer Hardware –– computers used for storing data,
displaying graphics and processing data [5].
• Computer Software –– computer programs that run on
the computer hardware and allow us to work with
digital data. A software program that forms part of the
GIS is called a GIS Application [5].
With QGIS we can use separate shape file to produce vector
layers or we can access different spatial databases like PostGIS,
SpatiaLite and MS SQL Spatial, Oracle Spatial etc. So it is a
database independent solution for our case. We can add different
layers for zooming capability with statistical data for each layer.
If data is changed in the database then it will depicted within a
few seconds in the QGIS browser. QGIS can be used as a WMS,
WMTS, WMS-C or WFS and WFS-T client, and as a WMS,
WCS or WFS server.
C. AnyMap
AnyMap is a powerful product from AnyChart. AnyChart is a
flexible JavaScript (HTML5) based solution that allows
developers to embed interactive and great looking charts and
dashboards into any web, standalone or mobile project [6].
Whether we need to improve our website with better reporting,
embed dashboards into our on-premises and SaaS systems, or
build an entire new product, AnyChart covers all data
visualization needs. AnyMap is a very useful tool for side-by-
side reporting [6].
Figure 3: A simple Map Using AnyMap
We can use it online or offline. To use AnyMap we need to have
JavaScript file for each geographical location that we are
targeting to display on the map. We can also use JSON file. This
method is dependent to the AnyChart map data. The zoom in -
zoom out feature is obtain by drilldown map otherwise it is a
single layer representation with other features e.g. tooltips,
different types of charts etc. When we change anything in the
database then the change will not directly depict on the map
because the maps are rendered from JavaScript or JSON source
which needs to be updated when we have made any changes in
the database. To visualize the data for a specific location from
database we need to create JavaScript or JSON data file for that
specific location. AnyMap is not a database dependent
technology and it is a specialized tool for chart representations of
statistical data.

III. SOLUTIONS FOR EMBEDDING STATISTICAL DATA
A. Embedding and Evaluating Statistical Data into Map using
Oracle MapViewer
To use Oracle MapViewer we have used glassfish server for
quick installation and use the pre deployed MapViewer and
mvdemo data. For map rendering we need to create styles,
themes and base maps using map builder which is used to define
Meta data into database. In this solution we do not need to
depend on third party map provider i.e. we can depend on our
own data and also we can work offline as well as including our
statistical data into map along with different features.
A work flow that we have used here is given bellow:
Figure 4: Work flow of MapViewer implementation
To evaluate Oracle MapViewer with our requirements we will
use the data set for and also use statistical data for USA states,
cities. As we have prepared data and configured MapViewer,
now we can use MapViewer to explore some key features from
our requirements:
Display Map with Bar Chart
To represent statistical data as Bar Chart into map I have used
Non-Spatial Data Provider (NSDP) mechanism to join the results
of a database query (i.e. a JDBC vector layer) with content in an
xml document and display it.
Figure 5: Visualization of statistical data using NSDP mechanism
Display map with variable Buckets
To display the variable buckets i.e. different county colors based
on the total population of that county we need to create an
advanced style (variable buckets) from map builder and then
assign that style to a theme and then we can use it as a predefined
vector layer.
Figure 6: Visualization of static data with variable range bucket
Reflecting the metadata changes into the map
The tile layers that we have created using map viewer admin
console those tile layers are managed by the map tile server
which is a part of Oracle MapViewer. When a client is requesting
for a map then map tile server fetches the requested tile image
and store them and returns to the client.
Oracle maps have three dissimilar choices for storage the map
image tiles [7]:
• Store the tiles using the local file system
• Store the tiles in a database table. (currently not used)
• Stream the tiles directly without caching
I have used Stream without caching and it’s simply solved the
update problems. That means if we change anything in the
underlying database or metadata (Themes, base maps) then the
change will be depicted in a minute.To do this task, we need to
set the persistent_tiles attribute false in MapViewer while
creating a new tile layer. After making the tile layer as stream
without caching, now if we change anything in the database that
related with this tile, the change will be depicted.

B. Embedding and Evaluating Statistical Data into Map using
QGIS
To deploy our requirements with QGIS application we will
follow the work flow diagram as bellow:
Figure 8: Work flow of QGIS implementation
Web map using qgis2web plugin
Qgis2web generates a web map from our current QGIS project so
we can publish our project as a web map using qgis2web plugin.
To publish a the layers as a web map we need to navigate:
Save current project click web menu
select qgis2web menu
select Create web mapselect the necessary properties from the
following wizard select update preview
select export
When we have completed export successfully then the exported
map is saved in the default location.
Figure 9: A web map using qgis2web plugin
Create a package to convert SDO_GEOMETRY into
GEOJSON
So far we did not use any QGIS server or geoserver, we just
simply create the map and used qgis2web plugin to published the
map.qgis2web plugin create a folder and store all resources to
generate the map separately so that this folder is isolated from
QGIS and we can use that folder anywhere and run the html file
to access the map. So if we change any data in the database then
the change will not take effect until we create a new web map
using qgis2web plugin manually. But one of our main
requirements is to update the map automatically after any
changes in the backend database. We have three JavaScript files
which contain GEOJSON data. Our purpose is to update this data
source if any changes happen in the database because we need to
display the statistics data into map which are rendered from these
data source and other rendering resources will remain the
unchanged. To make these things happen we need to build a
package which will be responsible for converting the
SDO_GEOMETRY data into GEOJSON array from database
along with statistical data as properties. To execute the package
we need to run the following files [8]:
SQL>@ora2geojson.pkh
SQL>@ora2geojson.pkb
After running these two files we can make a query to run the
package and get the GEOJSON output from a specific table as
follow [8]:
SELECT ora2geojson.sdo2geojson('select * from states',Rowid,
GEOM) FROM states;
Where ‘states’ is the spatial table or view and GEOM is the name
of the spatial column. The ROWID is needed to collect the
attributes.
The output from the above query is looks like:

C. Embedding and Evaluating Statistical Data into Map using
AnyMap
To deploy our requirements using AnyMap we need to download
AnyChart installation package from
https://www.anychart.com/download/products/ .
We can also use AnyMap without downloading the installation
package. To continue our work we have followed a working flow
diagram as follow:
Figure 11: Work flow of AnyMap implementation
Drilldown Map
To achieve the zooming capability we have to use drilldown map
in AnyMap. In our case we have used statistical data for three
states and visualized them with drilldown capabilities from
AnyMap. To do this we have created two JavaScript file that
contains functions that returns the statistical data for that specific
states and counties.
Figure 11: Different stages of Drilldown Map
Dashboard
To represent the statistical data into map using AnyMap we have
to use dashboard technique which will display statistical data into
map as a chart or combo box. We can achieve the output as
follow [9]:
Figure 12: Dashboard in AnyMap
IV. CONCLUSION
MapViewer is a very powerful and specialized solution for
map rendering from Oracle spatial database with statistical data.
QGIS is another GIS tool to make maps from different spatial
databases or from single shape files with statistical data. AnyMap
is a JavaScript solution to represent the map from data files not
directly connected to the database. To determine the best solution
I have compared every solutions with each other based on
important criteria’s. I have described the comparison details in
table no. I bellow. From the comparison I would like to prefer
that the solution using Oracle MapViewer might be one of the
best solutions depending on the features and special criteria’s.
Compare with Oracle MapViewer the QGIS tool is easier to use
and it’s relatively simple to handle. Oracle MapViewer is a
specialized tool for representing statistical data into map and
works with spatial data. One major disadvantage is that it is not
database independent. More details for each solution is given in
the table I.
