GIS Integral Solution in Water Utility ManagementEsri
This document discusses how GIS can provide an integral solution for water utility management. It describes GeoSAS, a GIS software that integrates desktop, web, and mobile applications to help utilities with production, analysis, field work, editing, consulting, and integration with ERP systems. The software represents utility infrastructure data faithfully and can integrate with modeling, control, and business systems to help utilities optimize supply, control costs, and meet regulatory requirements.
A GIS water management system was developed using free and open source software as a strategic element for smart cities. The existing proprietary solution had limitations including a generic data model, restrictions on external system connections, and limitations on publishing information. The migration process involved redesigning the data model, creating geometric and thematic validation systems, matching models and importing data, connecting to subsystems, and developing client functionality. The resulting open source solution provides flexibility, scalability, and interoperability to address smart city needs.

Integrating Sanitary Televising Data with Utility GIS DataMatt Eitrem
In 2011-12 the City of Ashland Public Works department invested in televising trouble spots and areas of concern of their sanitary collection system. In two years about 22% of the City’s sanitary lines and manholes were comprehensively inventoried. The City selected a contractor to inventory and televise its sanitary system to comply with NASSCO standards and provide a fully digital inventory dataset that included video, reports, and tabular data of inspections. By leveraging the City’s current GIS inventory of is sanitary infrastructure, the projects were able to be completed on time, in budget, and performed accurately. The results were able to be quantified quickly, evaluated for quality of work and put to use immediately for capital improvement planning, customer relations, operations planning and infrastructure inventory updates. This presentation will cover; Mapbook creation for project management, Database integration into geodatabases, Project reporting for capital improvements, Infrastructure inventory update benefits, Web map application data integrations for operations management and customer relations.

Iirs overview -Remote sensing and GIS application in Water Resources ManagementTushar Dholakia
Remote sensing and GIS application in Water Resources Management- By S.P. Aggarval spa@iirs.gov.in Indian Institute of Remote sensing ISRO, Department of space, Dehradun
This document discusses two types of spatial data used in GIS - vector data and raster data. Vector data represents geographic features as points, lines, and polygons using vertices with x, y, and z coordinates. It allows for accurate representation of shapes and storing of attribute data but requires more processing and storage. Raster data represents geographic information through a grid of cells (pixels), with each cell storing attribute values like elevation or temperature. It is better for continuously changing data but cannot represent linear features well and has increased storage needs at higher resolutions. Both data types have advantages and disadvantages depending on the use case.

Leveraging ArcGIS Platform & CityEngine for GIS based Master PlansEsri India
Sustainable, scalable and future ready urban development is one the key priorities in India as well globally. Major government programs i.e. Smart Cities and Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) aim to build foundations to achieve this.
For any planned development, master plan is a starting point. A master plan provides a long term blueprint that guides the sustainable planned development of the city. Use of GIS for master planning is not new. GIS-based Master Plans will help in different types of urban planning exercises, e.g. preparation of development plan, zonal plan, utility plan, infrastructure plan, etc. Even Smart City program and AMRUT programs mandate use of GIS for master plan creation.

This document discusses a pilot project to test odor control in a proposed wastewater force main between Holmen, WI and Onalaska, WI. Bench-scale bioreactors were set up to mimic force main conditions and test calcium nitrate dosing. Initial results showed discrepancies between lab tests and colorimetric tests for sulfides. The testing plan was revised to better establish biofilm conditions before continuing dosage tests, which have shown promising trends so far in reducing sulfides. Further long-term testing is needed, especially in summer.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

our proposed model. These findings underscore the model’s competence in precise brain tumor localization, underscoring its potential to revolutionize medical
image analysis and enhance healthcare outcomes. This research paves the way
for future exploration and optimization of advanced CNN models in medical
imaging, emphasizing addressing false positives and resource efficiency.
Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.
