Estimating the Environmental Impact of Agriculture by means of Geospatial and...
This document discusses using geospatial and big data analysis to estimate the environmental impact of agriculture in Catalonia. The methodology involves collecting datasets from agricultural sensors and weather monitoring, developing a database to store the data, using the datasets as layers in a geospatial analysis tool, and applying big data analysis to estimate impacts and find solutions. The results are presented through an online policy tool that allows visualizing data on farms, emissions calculations, and GIS maps showing analysis of areas like animal concentration and methane emissions. The tool aims to help policymakers make decisions on issues like manure management. Future work will focus on nitrate management and siting manure plants.
AgriBigCAT: An Online Platform for Estimating the Impact of Livestock Agricul...
Intensive farming has been linked to excessive accumulation of heavy metals and other contaminants on soil, and to significant groundwater pollution with nitrates. Hence, it is necessary to develop a common body of knowledge, so as to allow an effective monitoring of cropping systems, fertilization and water demands, and impacts of climate change, with a focus on the sustainability and the protection of the physical environment. In this presentation, we describe AgriBigCAT, an online software platform that uses geophysical information from various diverse sources, employing geospatial and big data analysis, together with web technologies, in order to estimate the impact of the agricultural sector on the environment. It considers land, water, biodiversity and natural areas requiring protection, such as forests and wetlands. This platform can assist both the farmers' decision-taking processes and the administration planning and policy-making, with the ultimate objective of meeting the challenge of increasing food production at a lower environmental impact. An online application of AgriBigCAT, focusing on the local environmental issues of the agricultural sector of Catalonia, is presented and described, together with some preliminary analysis findings. This presentation has been prepared for the EFITA 2017 Congress in Montpellier.
GIS-enabled bioenergy potential mapping in India
This document describes a methodology for mapping bioenergy potential in India using GIS. It aims to map potential from three biomass resources: burned agricultural residue, animal manure, and municipal solid waste.
For burned agricultural residue, the methodology uses NASA satellite data on burn scars and reprocesses it with a collection 6 algorithm to map residue locations. For animal manure, it uses livestock census data and geospatial information like land cover and population density to model livestock density and distribution. For municipal solid waste, it uses population maps to estimate waste production levels. The results are compiled in an ArcGIS online map of comparative bioenergy distribution.

Exploitation of Climatic Data in Agriculture
This document discusses using climatic data to define agro-climatic zones for more precise agricultural management. Current climate zone maps are too generic and do not account for local characteristics. The project aims to provide more detailed local agro-climatic maps by processing historical weather databases and earth observation data, along with factors like elevation, distance to water, and land cover. This improved spatial resolution of climate zones can support localized field-level agricultural strategies by identifying areas at risk of freezing or high temperatures and informing decisions on planting dates, fertilization, and pesticide application. The EUXDAT e-infrastructure provides tools for analyzing climatic and other geospatial data to map agro-climatic zones at high resolution.

A strategy for estimating the components of the carbon and water budgets for ...Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
This document summarizes a strategy for estimating carbon and water budgets for croplands at the plot scale over large areas using remote sensing data and a crop model. The objectives are to analyze ecosystem services like yield, biomass, evapotranspiration, and net CO2 fluxes to calculate annual carbon and water budgets and test the effects of management practices. A multi-temporal remote sensing data assimilation scheme was developed to run the SAFYE-CO2 crop model without needing detailed ground data by using Sentinel satellite imagery. The approach provides good estimates of fluxes compared to observations and performs well compared to other models without requiring management data. It can help quantify the effects of practices like cover crops on carbon storage and other benefits.Circular-Amsterdam-EN-small-210316
This document summarizes the results of a study conducted on Amsterdam's potential to transition to a circular economy. The study identifies two value chains - construction and organic waste processing - that could be optimized to increase circularity. For construction, implementing strategies like smart design, dismantling/separation, and material reuse/recycling could generate €85 million annually, reduce CO2 by 500,000 tonnes, and create 700 jobs. For organic waste, developing a central processing hub and improving waste logistics/nutrient recovery may yield €150 million annually, cut CO2 by 600,000 tonnes, and create 1,200 jobs over 5-7 years. The report outlines roadmaps and actions the city can take to realize these

Research activities included experimental studies of forest soil types in Finland and France, as well as developing models and applications to optimize operations related to soil assessment, planting, young stand management, and harnessing various data sources like remote sensing. Overall the collaboration between researchers andSwedish peatlands - accounting and restoration
This document discusses peatlands in Sweden. It notes that peatlands cover 6.9 million hectares or 17% of Sweden's land area. Most peatlands are either open mire or grazed mire (4.2 million hectares) or mire with forestry or forested (2.5 million hectares). Drained peatlands emit 9-11.4 million tons of CO2 equivalents per year, accounting for 15-20% of Sweden's total greenhouse gas emissions. The document advocates restoring peatlands used for agriculture or low-carbon forestry through rewetting measures to reduce emissions and discusses several restoration projects and studies underway.

This document summarizes a study that sought to improve biomass assessments of agricultural prunings in Europe by finding correlations between residue to surface ratios (RSR) and various climatic and agricultural factors. The study compiled a database of 230 records from surveys and literature across 7 European countries. It analyzed the records' over 20 climatic and agricultural parameters and found small correlations except for some agro-climatic variables. Regression analysis was applied to vineyards and citrus, and ramp functions were developed to estimate RSR for different crop groups based on climatic GIS data. This estimated over 13 million tons per year of dry biomass potential from agricultural prunings across EU28 states.

In cities where a large geographical area of the city is densely populated, the process of waste collection is cumbersome, tiresome and expensive. Often, the burden of manually tracking and collecting of waste causes waste management companies enormous wasted effort and get them involved in tasks that are not necessary. No doubt, a digital interaction between waste management companies and targeted waste collection areas could ensure the process becomes fast, efficient and traceable as they become aware of the states of the wastes, aptly. It will considerably reduce any discrepancies that may occur due to the lack of information available during a particular time. Accordingly, this paper proposes a novel approach towards waste management combined with the internet of things to reduce the problems that would occur due to the accumulation of wastes and hence improvise waste collection/management process. Additionally, an innovative feature which generates revenue and creates business opportunities for waste management companies is introduced via advertisement solution based on network-attached storage technology.

The document discusses waste source separation management strategies in urban areas like Tehran to improve recycling. It analyzes traditional strategies from 1997-2006 that relied on waste pickers collecting mixed waste, and newer strategies from 2006-2010 that tested pilot programs for improved source separation. The recommended approach is an "integrated waste source separation system" using buyback centers, door-to-door collection, and curbside sorting to increase participation and recycling quality. Coordination between municipalities, clear goals, support for facilities/equipment, and public education are identified as important for success.

A study Report on Implementation of GIS in Solid Waste Management
Increasing human population and economic development and urbanization has resulted in generation of huge quantities of municipal solid waste (MSW). It involves many activities like collection, transportation and disposal of wastes. There is tremendous amount of loss in terms of environment degradation, health hazards and economic descend, due to direct disposal of waste. It is better to segregate waste at initial stages where it is generated. Planners are thus forced to consider alternate and available means of disposal, especially by minimizing damage to the ecosystem and human population. GIS has proved to be boon to such planners by visualizing the real solid waste situations and facilitating route analysis through mapping. A Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer system for capturing, storing, checking and displaying data related to positions on Earth’s surface.

This document summarizes a research study on applying the industrial ecology concept to municipal solid waste management in Bandung City, Indonesia. The study found that implementing industrial ecology principles, such as reusing materials and energy from waste, reduced the amount of dumped waste from 18% to 6% of total waste and burned waste from 12% to 7%, while increasing composted waste from 4% to 21%. The research estimated this scenario could generate 370,852 GJ of net energy, equivalent to 103,097 MWh of electricity. It could also reduce global warming potential by 77% compared to conventional waste management practices. The research aims to develop a more sustainable and environmentally-sound waste management concept based on industrial ecology for cities to
Applications of GIS in Municipal Solid Waste Management
Geographic Information System (GIS) is used to input, store, retrieve, manipulate, analyze and output geographically referenced data. In order to support decision making for planning and management of land use, natural resources, environment, transportation, urban facilities, and other administrative records.The Role of GIS is very large as many aspects of its planning and operations are highly dependent on spatial data & also provides a digital data bank for future monitoring program of the site…….etc

The goal is developing an integrated management plan based on the waste lifecycle and sources.
Study of sustainable environmental sanitation management policies and program...
ABSTRACT: Environmental sanitation treatment, especially waste from the source is essential to be
implemented in the city of Makassar through government policies and programs as well as support from all
levels of society. The purpose of this study was to examine policies and programs for sustainable environmental
hygiene management. Data collection was carried out through interviews with the leadership and staff of the
Sanitation and Landscaping Office, sub-district leaders and staff, and the community. The data collected is in
the form of qualitative and quantitative data. The results showed that the waste management policies and
programs in Makassar City are currently being managed by the Makassar City Sanitation and Landscaping
Office. Facilities and infrastructure for collection, transportation, and processing are still minimal, both in terms
of quantity and quality. The Antangl and fill will be able to accommodate municipal waste for 15-20 years if
community empowerment can be carried out optimally. The results of the contingency table found that there
was a significant relationship between environmental hygiene management policies and programs and the level
of community empowerment in the city of Makassar.
KEYWORDS: cleaning staff,community empowerment, facilities, landfill capacity, waste management
policies, and programs.
SMART DUSTBIN FOR SMART CITIES
This document summarizes a technical seminar on smart dustbins for smart cities presented by Ved Prakash. The presentation describes a proposed system of internet-enabled dustbins that use sensors to detect fill levels and send that data via GPS to a central server. The server then processes queries from a mobile app to direct users to the nearest available dustbin. Implementing this smart dustbin system could optimize garbage collection routes, reduce costs, and provide data to help plan waste management. In conclusion, properly implementing smart dustbins could help make cities cleaner and support the vision of smart cities.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
