How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Conclusion
The plants study area has a daylight factor of 5.76% and natural illumination of 1152 lux. Based on
the requirements of MS 1525, this space has good daylight distribution as the value is in between
3-6%. However, the illuminance value is higher than the required value of 300 lux. This can cause
thermal and glare problems, which leads to the discomfort of the users. Low-e coatings of the glass
panels are proposed to minimize the penetration of ultraviolet and infrared rays into the interior
spaces. Moreover, this is further aided by planting vegetation on the external of the façade which
can further solve glare and thermal problems.

9. 1.1.3 Permanent Supplementary Artificial Lighting of Interior (PSALI)
Referring to the daylight values obtained above, the plants study area has a good daylight factor of
5.76%. The light contour diagram also shows that the space receives sufficient day lighting during
the day from the façade. The artificial lightings calculation also shows a result of the usage of 14
fluorescent lamps to illuminate the plants study area. Hence, PSALI is applied whereby the
lightings are controlled with 2 switches. One for the first row near the facade whereby it can be
switched off when there is sufficient day light, one for the second row which is futher in when there
isn’t sufficient day light.

Based on the requirements of MS 1525, the daylight factor is under the good 3-6% range and the
illuminance value is slightly higher than the required value of 300 lux. This can cause slight thermal
and glare problems, which leads to the discomfort of the users and spaces will be slightly darker.
Hence, low-e coatings of the glass panels are proposed to minimize the penetration of ultraviolet
and infrared rays into the interior spaces. And more lighting fixtures will be needed.

Conclusion
12 LED down lights are used to illuminate the limited edition area to achieve the minimum
illuminance of 300 lux stated by MS 1525.With sufficient illuminance, users are able to read in a
comfortable environment.
16. 1.2.3 Permanent Supplementary Artificial Lighting of Interior (PSALI)
Referring to the daylight values obtained above, the limited edition section has a daylight factor of
2.31% which is under the optimum standard 3 - 6%. The light contour diagram also shows that the
space lacks day lighting during the day from the façade, resulting rather gloomy and dark. The
artificial lightings calculation also shows a result of the usage of 12 LED down lights to illuminate
the limited edition section. Hence, PSALI is applied whereby the lightings are controlled with 2
switches. One for the first two rows near the facade whereby it can be switched off when there is
sufficient day light and another one for the successive two rows at the back.

Conclusion
The noise criteria for a reading area is within the range of NC 35-40. According to the calculations
above, the combined sound pressure level around the limited edition section during peak and non
peak hours are 80.04dB and 45dB respectively, which exceeds the noise criteria for a reading
area, resulting in interrupted communication. This can be solved by designing a landscape in front
of the building which can act as a buffer zone to absorb noise coming from the streets. And sound
reflecting / absorbent façade.

Conclusion
The noise criteria for a reading area is within the range of NC 35-40. According to the calculations
above, the combined sound pressure level around the plants reading area during peak and non
peak hours are 75.08dB and 53.42dB respectively, which exceeds the noise criteria for a reading
area, resulting in a chaotic environment unfit for reading. This can be solved by proposing an
insulated curtain wall and growing plants to absorb unwanted noise.
