The document discusses the Veneto Region's Land Use Map project which involves creating and updating cartographic tools to support territorial planning by local authorities. It describes a 4-step process: 1) Producing a database of land coverage for urbanized areas using satellite imagery and ancillary data; 2) Implementing the database for non-urban areas with detailed classifications; 3) Producing historical land use maps; and 4) Updating the Veneto Land Cover Map using high resolution imagery. The land use map is then used to evaluate and manage flood risk in accordance with EU directives by analyzing hazard, vulnerability, and risk. Maps are produced for specific areas and statistics are compiled for local authorities.

Building on the Usability Study: Two Explorations on How to Better Understan...mprabaker
The document discusses two explorations into better understanding user interfaces. It examines measuring intuitiveness and emotional impact as part of evaluating user experience beyond traditional usability measures. To measure intuitiveness, it proposes combining novice and expert user performance evaluations. To measure emotion, it combines physiological, verbal and non-verbal techniques, including a PAD semantic scale and Emo-Card tool. An empirical study found these emotional measures detected differences between interfaces that traditional measures did not. The document concludes traditional usability measures may be missing valuable emotional aspects of user experience.
