Wielka Mapa Księstwa Pomorskiego Eilharda Lubinusa – nowe fakty

Wielka Mapa Księstwa Pomorskiego Eilharda Lubinusa – nowe fakty

Author(s): Bogna Górniak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 02/2016

The paper discusses a copy of The Great Map of The Duchy of Pomerania which in 2012 was handed over for restoration at The Department of Paper and Leather Conservation, Nicolaus Copernicus University, Toruń. The study of the technique and technology in which the map was created and observations made in the course of restoration, allow ascertaining that the copy is an exceptional artist’s proof print of the artwork, dating from 1618. The hypothesis has been confirmed by the analysis of the paper base of the map, its graphic layer and the print quality.

Identification of the spatial causes of urban sprawl with the use of land information systems and GIS tools

Identification of the spatial causes of urban sprawl with the use of land information systems and GIS tools

Author(s): Ada Wolny-Kucińska,Agnieszka Dawidowicz,Ryszard Źróbek / Language(s): English Issue: 35/2017

Urbanization is one of the processes that determine the development of a country or a region, but it has both advantages and side effects. Some of its aspects may lead to unsustainable growth and dispersion of built-up area. The main causes of this process are increases in costs of transportation, infrastructure and nature conservation. There is a threat of uncontrolled spread of development as a result of urbanization processes, particularly in suburban municipalities. It has been requested by many researches that authorities put more interest in avoiding dispersed suburbanization, but they still are looking for better solutions, tools and procedures to solve this problem. The aim of this article is to demonstrate the important role of spatial information from land information systems in identifying and predicting the causes of the development of dispersed built-up areas. Thanks to GIS instruments local authorities are more likely to preserve spatial order and avoid the side effects of "sprawling".

Analysis of the relationships between the spatial arrangement of palaeovalleys and contemporary valleys of Central Poland in the light of GIS methods

Analysis of the relationships between the spatial arrangement of palaeovalleys and contemporary valleys of Central Poland in the light of GIS methods

Author(s): Aleksander Szmidt / Language(s): English Issue: 15/2016

W artykule przedstawiono przykład zastosowania wybranych metod GIS w celu wykazania związków pomiędzy przebiegiem dolin kopalnych oraz współczesnych na obszarze Polski Środkowej. Analizowany obszar w warunkach lądowych kształtowany był już w paleogenie i neogenie, natomiast największy wpływ na obecną rzeźbę powierzchni odcisnęły procesy morfogenetyczne w czwartorzędzie. W opracowaniach paleogeograficznych dla analizowanego obszaru często wskazuje się na możliwe zależności pomiędzy wykształceniem rzeźby współczesnej a jej podłożem, w szczególności zaś sieci dolinnej. W celu weryfikacji tej hipotezy, na podstawie archiwalnych materiałów kartograficznych oraz Cyfrowego Modelu Wysokościowego rzeźby współczesnej, zaproponowano schemat przeprowadzenia analizy z wykorzystaniem zestawu ogólnodostępnych narzędzi GIS. Z wyników przeprowadzonej analizy można stwierdzić, że główne doli- ny rzeczne Polski Środkowej w dużej części nawiązują swoim przebiegiem do kopalnej sieci dolinnej, gdzie związki te najlepiej są widoczne w przypadku dolin największych.

Rozwój morfologiczno-przestrzenny Rovaniemi

Rozwój morfologiczno-przestrzenny Rovaniemi

Author(s): Marta Chmielewska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 06/2017

The paper applies to the city of Rovaniemi and the morphological and spatial structure of its urban space. As a result of a comparative analysis of chronologically compiled town plans conducted by the Conzenian school of urban morphology, correlated with the written sources about the history of the city and field research, six stages of morphologic-spatial development of Rovaniemi were specified. A number of factors which exerted an influence on the development of the urban space of the town in the course of time have also been identified.Artykuł dotyczy historii kształtowania się współczesnej struktury morfologiczno-przestrzennej miasta Rovaniemi (Laponia, Finlandia). W wyniku przeprowadzonej analizy porównawczej chronologicznie zestawionych planów miasta metodą M.R.G. Conzena, uzupełnionej o kwerendę literatury dotyczącej historii miasta i badania terenowe, w dziejach Rovaniemi wydzielono sześć etapów rozwoju morfologiczno-przestrzennego. Wyodrębniono także szereg czynników, które wywierały wpływ na przestrzeń miasta w poszczególnych okresach jego rozwoju.

Rozwój przestrzenny i przemiany morfologiczne osiedli Wrocławia wyrosłych wokół dawnych wsi kmiecych

Rozwój przestrzenny i przemiany morfologiczne osiedli Wrocławia wyrosłych wokół dawnych wsi kmiecych

Author(s): Barbara Miszewska,Robert Szmytkie / Language(s): Polish Issue: 06/2017

Between the years 1928 and 1973, three towns (Brochów, Leśnica, Psie Pole) and over 50 villages were incorporated into the borders of Wrocław city. It resulted in the growth of the administrative area of the city from 49.2 to 292.8 km2. Amongst the settlements incorporated into the city borders, it is possible to recognize the vegetable, peasant and farm villages. In most cases, former villages became genetic cores, around which current districts of the city were developed. Due to the diversified dynamics and the complex character of morphological transformations, the peasant villages deserve particular attention. An analysis of the spatial development and the main tendencies of morphological transformations of settlements developed around the peasant villages is the main purpose of this article. The majority of peasant villages are located in the western and southern parts of the city. Villages taken into account in the analysis differ in the progress of development processes, morphological diversification of settlements developed around former villages and in the transformations of the habitat of the village (from fully preserved forms to the forms with partly or entirely changed farm buildings). In the case of peasant villages, the morphological transformations have a different scale, from the phase of the minimal transformations (e.g. Jerzmanowo), to the phase where the initial form of the village is becoming blurred and the inter-urban “conglomerate” is developing (Ołtaszyn – Wojszyce).W latach 1928–1973 w granice Wrocławia wcielono trzy miasta (Brochów, Leśnicę i Psie Pole) oraz ponad 50 wsi, w wyniku czego powierzchnia miasta wzrosła z 49,2 do 292,8 km2. Wśród przyłączonych do miasta miejscowości można wyróżnić wsie: warzywnicze, kmiece i folwarczne. W większości przypadków stały się one jądrami genetycznymi, wokół których wyrosły obecne osiedla miasta. Na szczególną uwagę, z uwagi na zróżnicowane tempo i złożony charakter przemian morfologicznych, zasługują zwłaszcza wsie kmiece. Celem artykułu jest analiza rozwoju przestrzennego i głównych tendencji przemian morfologicznych osiedli powstałych w sąsiedztwie wsi kmiecych. Większość z nich położona jest w zachodniej i południowej części miasta. Ich wybór podyktowany był zaawansowaniem procesów rozwoju i zróżnicowania morfologicznego osiedli powstałych wokół dawnych wsi i stopniem przekształcenia pierwotnego siedliska wsi (od zachowanej po częściowo zachowaną i całkowicie wymienioną zabudowę zagrodową), od fazy minimalnych zmian pierwotnego układu (Jerzmanowo) po fazę zacierania formy inicjalnej i powstawania swoistej wewnątrzmiejskiego „zlepieńca” (Ołtaszyn – Wojszyce).

DESCRIPTIO SILVAE – PRIKAZI ŠUMA U HRVATSKOM PRIMORSKOM PROSTORU TIJEKOM 16. STOLJEĆA

DESCRIPTIO SILVAE – PRIKAZI ŠUMA U HRVATSKOM PRIMORSKOM PROSTORU TIJEKOM 16. STOLJEĆA

Author(s): Josip Faričić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 14/2018

The paper describes and interprets selected 16th-century cartographic depictions of forests in the Croatian coastland area. Through researching the cartographic sources of the spatial data, certain regularities and specific features were confirmed in the depiction of forests as components of the landscape, important parts of the ecosystem, and a valuable economic resource. In the 16th century, forests were usually shown only on chorographic maps of small spatial units, and were not shown at all on maritime charts. Chorographic maps varied widely in terms of their geographic contents, quality of depiction and cartography, right up to the early 19th century, when topographic and cadastral surveys of the entire Croatian coastal area were carried out systematically using a unified methodology. Based on these first modern maps, it was possible to produce smaller-scale chorographic maps and various thematic maps using standardised cartographic procedures. Since forest communities in the 16th century were not depicted in a standardised way, and were not previously subjected to systematic surveys or even field observations in many cases, it is impossible to reconstruct the spatial development of the forest cover and quantify human influence on it, particularly forest degradation caused by felling for various economic purposes (increasing arable land, fuel, house-building, ship-building, fishing, lime production, etc.). Nonetheless, the depictions of forests on 16th-century maps allow a partial insight into the significance of the forests in the spatial organisation of individual Croatian coastal regions, and should not be ignored in historical-geographical and ecohistorical research into the area.

Author(s): Caius DIDULESCU,Gheorghe Badea,Ana Cornelia Badea,Adrian Savu / Language(s): English Issue: 23/2017

During the last years, in Romania there were complex situations involving restoration of property rights by the authorized bodies. A big step was made in 2013, when the applicable law was changed by Law no.165/2013. Between 2013 and 2017 the legislative framework was changed twelve times, according with different emergency ordinances, government decisions and laws, in order to complete the restitution process – in kind or by compensation –of the real estate’s abusively taken during the communist regime. In this paper we want to highlight the incident methodology and some specific issues encountered during the restitution process in a specific case study.

Monitoring Special Urban Installations with the GIS Model

Monitoring Special Urban Installations with the GIS Model

Author(s): Iustina Lateș,Mihail Luca,Ștefania Chirica / Language(s): English Issue: 23/2017

GIS models are currently used in many areas of activity where they combine field data, maps, plans and applications to provide useful information in the shortest possible time. A new field of applications for GIS models is the in-service monitoring of the water networks. GIS models are made in different programs, ArcMap, Autocad and are structured on custom layouts. Work layers require attachment of data banks for characteristic parameters of the water supply system. Management is more effective in a monitoring program using GIS applications, based on the speed of work and the complexity of the attached data. Thematic maps, work reports and mathematical models for design and exposition in a relatively short time can be developed through GIS models. The monitoring is done both for the entire water supply system and separately for each construction and water-supply system in part.

The Influence of the Environment on Real Estate Appraisal

The Influence of the Environment on Real Estate Appraisal

Author(s): Voichița Roib,Ilinca Roib / Language(s): English Issue: 23/2017

The existence of adverse environmental conditions may reduce the value of a real estate property, so the appraisers must identify the factors and conditions that influence this value. One of the environmental factors that may influence the real estate value is climate. The paper presents the analysis of thermal comfort in a hot summer day, in the central area of Cluj-Napoca City. The results show an overview of the climate in this urban area in the mentioned period and can be used to analyse the best use of the property. In order to appraise a real estate property, the appraisers must take into account how the thermal comfort can influence the value of the real estate property.

Implementation of Systematic Cadastre in an Administrative Territory

Implementation of Systematic Cadastre in an Administrative Territory

Author(s): George Emanuel Voicu,Florina Voicu / Language(s): English Issue: 23/2017

By its nature, the Earth has always been considered as a means of production without which life would not have existed, being limited as a surface, stable and irreplaceable, people transforming it into a good whose value has been established to the point. As a real estate, both the land and the constructions on it, have been subject to tax and tax records. At the same time, these records made it possible to establish the property right at the same time as creating the premise for its transmission in different situations.The success of land reform, the consolidation of democratic structures and the organization of society cannot be achieved without clear evidence of land ownership and ownership. Achieving evidence of real estate within an administrative territory now involves the execution of some complex works that allow highlighting the three aspects of a building: technical, economic and legal, so that can be created a complex record of the entire land fund in Romania.

Mobile Mapping Systems for Airports – Case Study Timişoara “Traian Vuia” International Airport

Mobile Mapping Systems for Airports – Case Study Timişoara “Traian Vuia” International Airport

Author(s): Emil Cristian Gabor,Cristian Iosub / Language(s): English Issue: 22/2017

The article focuses on the benefits of employing mobile LiDAR technology for airports surveys to deliver faster, safer and better geographical data. Airports administrations are bound to provide geographic data related to infrastructure and obstacles in nearby areas according to international regulations. Acquisition of these data using conventional surveying methods is slow but with low cost. Using airborne LiDAR technology is fast but very expensive. An appropriate compromise is the use of terrestrial mobile mapping LiDAR system. Surveys for Timisoara airport are presented together with the results of the study. In the end, a SWOT analysis is shown for the technology used in the study. Three results are introduced: “Certification Specifications (CS) for Aerodromes (EU) No 139/2014”, “International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Annex 14 Obstacle Limitation Surfaces”, and “ICAO Annex 15 Terrain and Obstacle Data Collection Surfaces”.

Using GIS Techniques for Identification of the Surfaces with Flash-Flood Risk Potential Within the Area Upstream of Poiana Uzului Reservoir

Using GIS Techniques for Identification of the Surfaces with Flash-Flood Risk Potential Within the Area Upstream of Poiana Uzului Reservoir

Author(s): Ioana Delia Miftode / Language(s): English Issue: 22/2017

Knowing the value of the flash flood potential index (FFPI) is significant, because there are included in the GIS environment various physical and geographical and anthropic factors playing an essential role in the flash flood occurrence: lithology, slopes, profile curvature, soil texture and the land use. In the mountainous region situated upstream of the Poiana Uzului reservoir, an area with a potential very high risk of flash flood sums up a total surface of 49.36 km2; the area with a potential high risk of flash floods sums up a total surface of 99.31 km2. The highest percentage of the total studied area is exposed to an average risk of flash floods. The Uz hydrographic basin is situated in an area with a potential high risk of flash floods. The map thus obtained displays the spatialization divided into five risk classes (very high, high, average, low, and very low). The surfaces the most exposed to flood generation are concave surfaces, surfaces that include high slopes, hard rocks, a low degree of forestation, clay soils. The areas identified as being critical, concerning the potential of flash flood generation, presented an elevated risk for other related phenomena – in this case, the floods.
