Assessment of Economic Development Opportunities for Afro-Latin Communities i...Wayne Dunn
This document is a final report submitted to the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) in December 2002 assessing economic development opportunities for Afro-Latin and indigenous communities on Nicaragua's Atlantic Coast. It identifies 6 pilot communities and develops 13 project prototypes focused on agricultural rehabilitation, agroforestry, fishing and agricultural processing. It also analyzes lessons from past interventions to inform the projects. The report finds that community-led agriculture and fishing present viable opportunities and proposes prototypes to strengthen related skills, infrastructure, organizations and markets.
The document announces that Geomatics Atlantic 2012 (GA2012) will include a 25th anniversary celebration for the College of Geographic Sciences (COGS) on June 13th. It will feature speakers reminiscing about COGS over the years, music, and food. Additionally, the executive editor of Directions Magazine, Adena Schutzberg, will give a keynote speech on future trends in geomatics. The conference has also partnered with Directions Magazine to provide expanded coverage. Attendees are encouraged to participate in the anniversary events and share their experiences.

It outlines details about parking limitations on campus due to construction, recommends attendees arrive early or take public transportation. It highlights some of the speakers and topics that will be covered at the conference, including presentations on coastal change mapping, policing, media, and more. The document also advertises the social events during the conference, including receptions and entertainment, encouraging attendees to network.
This document is the October 2005 issue of the GoddardView newsletter from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. The main stories discussed are:
1) NASA celebrating its 47th anniversary and the administrator discussing the Vision for Space Exploration and NASA's strategic direction.
2) Goddard employees organizing relief efforts to aid employees and facilities impacted by hurricanes Katrina and Rita in the Gulf Coast region.
3) An overview of the upcoming Combined Federal Campaign fundraising drive at Goddard to support various charities.

This document summarizes a project in The Gambia that aimed to improve access for the informal tourism sector to economic opportunities. It describes how the project engaged stakeholders from the informal and formal sectors, as well as the Gambian government, to address barriers faced by informal workers. Through consensus-building activities and pilot initiatives in areas like craft markets and juice selling, the project helped increase sales and earnings for informal businesses. It provides lessons on developing partnerships between sectors and empowering local organizations to promote inclusive and sustainable tourism development.

This document discusses making GDB-dominated data more efficient by using coded-value domains instead of look-up tables. It shows how replacing two 40-character fields describing European railroad lines with two 1-character coded fields reduces disk space usage from 7 MB to 5.7 MB. It also provides examples of the initial and final data contents, as well as how to use ModelBuilder to calculate one field based on characters of another.
This document provides background information and slides for a sermon given by William Black on November 18, 2012 about buildings that have impacted his faith journey. The sermon was divided into two parts: a travelogue of buildings and a discussion of what is in "this church." Slides depicted various churches and a cathedral that held meaning. The sermon concluded by listing what is in "this church" - quiet solitude, energy, people, and spirit.
This document discusses several impacts of climate change from an oceanographic perspective, including ocean warming, sea level rise, and ocean acidification. It notes that these issues are worldwide in scope and linked to increasing CO2 levels. Specific impacts highlighted include more intense hurricanes, rising seas threatening coastal populations like in Bangladesh and the Maldives, and harm to coral reefs and other organisms from acidification. The human impacts discussed include increased environmental refugees, effects on health, and the potential for conflict. The document raises the possibility of approaching a tipping point and examines geoengineering as a potential remedy for climate change, but notes the risks of such large-scale intervention.
The document discusses using applied marine geomatics as a management and planning tool for protecting the marine environment, using a case study in Atlantic Canada. It describes MARIN, which studies maritime activities and risks to develop risk analysis methodologies. MARIN has developed a comprehensive maritime traffic database and GIS-based software (MARIS) to simulate traffic. The case study examines using GIS-MCDA to determine where to apply a limited budget for marine research by analyzing factors like marine traffic, cargo types, hydrography, and positioning quality control. The process involves setting goals, criteria, standardizing and weighting factors, aggregating criteria, and validating results.
This document describes a pilot inquiry-based learning course on the Gold Rush using GIS. It discusses how geomatics initiatives in Nova Scotia found that increasing awareness of the field in education is key to its growth. The course uses authentic learning experiences and student choice to teach 21st century skills. Students do a simulated gold exploration using old and new technologies, like compasses, maps, and GIS software. The goal is to engage students and transfer spatial skills needed for careers using location-based information.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
