GIS 2.0, The Disaster Cycle, and It's Implications for Humanitarian Knowledge...Joshua Campbell
Presentation given at the Association of American Geographers (AAG) Annual Conference in Washington, DC on 16 April 2010. Discusses the relationship between GIS 2.0 and a conceptual model of the disaster cycle. The goal of which is to help guide the design process of a web-enabled humanitarian knowledge management system.
Spatial enrichment gives us the possibility of not only mapping the data, but further run spatial
operators. Creating overlays or buffers, route data networks, or cluster point data to name just a
few.
The array of possible interaction via the geographical context with data like state boundaries,
business data, demographic and environmental data can further add value to datasets. Suddenly
data can be seen in reference.

Geo-Information Visualizations of Linked Data. Linked Data provides an ever-growing source of geographically referenced data for application development. In this paper, we analyse the workflow behind the development of such an application. Using two examples based on worldwide development aid and refugee data, we discuss the steps from locating data for use and data integration, up to the actual visualization in a web-based application. At each step, we discuss the skill set required for completion and point to potential challenges. This includes RDF, SPARQL, HTTP requests, HTML, and JavaScript. We conclude the paper by putting our case study in the context of GIScience curriculum development.

Extreme Citizen Science technologies: attempting to embed values in codeMuki Haklay
Extreme Citizen Science (ExCiteS) is a situated, bottom-up practice that takes into account local needs, practices and culture and works with broad networks of people to design and build new devices and knowledge creation processes that can transform the world. The ExCiteS group at UCL was set up to support the implementation of this concept through the development of theories, methodologies, processes, and technologies that allow any community, regardless of (technical) literacy, to engage in citizen science projects that produce results that are meaningful and useful for them. Stemming from theoretical foundations in participatory action research and public participation geographic information systems (PPGIS), our technologies are designed to carry values with them. Once we visit these values, we can see how they turn into code, and ask how successful these efforts are, using cases in the Amazon, Congo-basin, Namibia, UK, and Malta.

A GIS is a computer-based tool that connects geographic data with graphic information for instance what things are like. In essence, the technology is used to display, capture, and study spatial data. In our communityDenver, Colorado fire hazards occur every other time, any delay of reacting to the hazard can mean the difference between the rescue of residents or grave harm or large scale demise. Therefore the crucial timespan between fire suppression and flashover can be gauged and contained in just a matter of seconds; inferring speedy access to essential information is paramount. GIS tools that aid firefighter rescue personnel pinpoint the disaster call scene, equally assist in assessing the potential magnitudes of the fire and establish the most effectual plan will abate property damage and protection of residents and fire service personnel. In the past, first fire responders mainly depend on handy gear, experience, communication, and collaboration to realize effective emergency response (Guzzetti, Marchetti & Pasquinelli, 2012). Nonetheless, with all the encounters facing emergency teams in the present day Colorado, effective response therefore necessitates prudent planning, broad training, risk management and intelligent organization by way of earl.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Despite the fact that this is a Hollywood movie, the reality is that the 'big one' IS on its way - it isn't a matter of IF, but WHEN
Link to the news story about the film and a boost in Emergency kit purchases http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/jun/04/san-andreas-california-earthquake-industry
What we know from the risk perception literature is that
People are generally aware of the risk to them from local natural hazards
Some even have a general idea of the types of activities they are supposed to engage in to prepare
Now, I’m not a geographer – I’m a participatory action researcher, so lets get a bit interactive!
Another quick interactive exercise –
Hands up if you have a smoke alarm in your home
Keep your hands up if you have EVER tested it
Tested it in the last year?
Tested it in the last 6 months?
In the last month?
We know from literature AND probably through our own personal experience – Just being aware of the risk doesn’t mean we take action to prepare for it!
Challenging Risk is an interdisciplinary project funded by EPSRC, made of up a team of
Citizen Scientists,
Structural engineers – both EQ and Fire
Psychologists
And GIS researchers
And we’re looking at using mixed methods to improve preparedness behaviours for Earthquake and Fire
OVER TIME
in Seattle, Washington and Izmir, Turkey
I emphasise ‘OVER TIME’ as we’re looking at habit change rather than one-off action change
Other than the fact that I’m at a GIS conference - Natural disasters are geospatial!
Research suggests that members of the public tend to frame risk in a personal way (Dransch et al., 2010) –
Maps can help support the user in considering the risk in a personal AND location-specific context
And they can support users in safely navigating their environment
We’re using GIS in multiple ways, including
Using local tax assessor, census and planning data to better understand and identify neighbourhoods to target for engagement
This image is one of our layers used to reflect data on building age to the sub-neighbourhood level – this matters as Earthquake and fire regulations have been upgraded at different times. In looking at building age, we can get an initial glimpse at what areas may be more 'at risk' based on census, planning and tax assessor data
Using maps as a point of dialogue, and a means to get local people talking about how they define their area and how they navigate the space around them
And finally, what we’re focusing on today: We’ll be using mapping as a digital tool for use in smart phone technology

I actually got this earthquake alert the morning of my GISRUK presentation based on my chosen locations to monitor!
I think it gives us a good example of an app that is using geographic information in an interactive way – the user can move and zoom the map to provide context, but the alert also allows for the user to send ‘I’m Safe’ messages or access the Toolkit with torch, alarm, first aid advice, etc.
Next Steps
Follow-up review is currently underway and aims to be published in the coming months
Paper prototyping & co-development of tool with local communities
Pilot of the app in Seattle
Handover of app to the community to take forward

Sitting down in workshops with existing communities of interest - be they bible studies, book clubs or neighbourhood watch groups
Longer term next steps - we will be repeating the process in Turkey and potentially Osaka, so watch this space!
I know this has been a whistlestop tour, but I appreciate your time
Before I forget, I also want to do a shameless plug for my colleague Patrick Rickles, one of the co-authors on this paper. If you’re using GIS in interdisciplinary research, he needs your feedback!
