Construcció d'un GIS de base municipal amb assignació automàtica del nom de carrer a les illes d'habitatges de la població de Terrassa

Aquest treball fi de carrera es basa en un estudi i posterior aplicació dels sistemes d'informació geogràfica (GIS), branca que pertany a l'àrea de les bases de dades.

Gestió de rutes i Geocodificació

Aquest PFC vol aprofundir en el món dels Sistemes d¿Informació Geogràfica (SIG) ([GIS,Geografic Information System]) mitjançant l¿estudi de solucions per a una de les problemàtiquesmés actuals: la gestió de rutes.

BCN­Routing : càlcul web de rutes amb pgRouting, OpenStreetMap i OpenLayers

En aquest projecte s'ha desenvolupat una interfície web per calcular rutes a la ciutat de Barcelona. Les rutes calculades són a peu, entre un punt d'origen qualsevol i un punt d'interès turístic de la ciutat com a destí. Per això s'han extret les dades dels carrers de Barcelona d'OpenStreetMap i s'han insertat a una base de dades postgreSQL/postGIS, juntament amb una capa vectorial de punts d'interès turístic que s'ha creat amb el SIG d'escriptori qGIS. El càlcul de les rutes amb les dades de la base de dades s'ha realitzat amb l'extensió pgRouting, i la interfície web per seleccionar els punts d'origen i destí, mostrar els mapes, i mostrar les rutes resultat, s'ha desenvolupat utilitzant la llibreria OpenLayers.

Projecte HAITí SIG : anàlisi bàsic de rutes òptimes a zones de catàstrofe

Els Sistemes d'Informació Geogràfica s'han convertit en quelcom molt important en els darrers temps gràcies al desenvolupament de les tecnologies sobre les que es recolzen. Aquest projecte tracta sobre ells, i ho fa des de dos vessats: el teòric i el pràctic. En la part teòrica del projecte es farà una revisió del que són per a què serveixen els Sistemes d'Informació Geogràfica. Per a entendre'ls amb més garanties es tracten lleugerament alguns conceptes genèrics sobre geodèsia i cartografia. La part pràctica del projecte descriu de quina forma s'ha creat un Sistema d'Informació Geogràfica que permet el tractament de dades d'Haití i que facilita la creació de mapes diversos. Addicionalment, per a veure una utilitat real del que es pot fer amb ells, es descriu també de quina forma s'ha dissenyat una aplicació que permet realitzar el càlcul de rutes òptimes entre dos punts, partint com a base de la xarxa de carreteres d'Haití. Per a finalitzar, es descriu de quina manera s'ha implementat un control de trams de carretera intransitables, els quals no seran considerats en el càlcul de les rutes.

The Estrada Real project and endemic diseases: the case of schistosomiasis, geoprocessing and tourism

Geographical Information System (GIS) is a tool that has recently been applied to better understand spatial disease distributions. Using meteorological, social, sanitation, mollusc distribution data and remote sensing variables, this study aimed to further develop the GIS technology by creating a model for the spatial distribution of schistosomiasis and to apply this model to an area with rural tourism in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais (MG). The Estrada Real, covering about 1,400 km, is the largest and most important Brazilian tourism project, involving 163 cities in MG with different schistosomiasis prevalence rates. The model with three variables showed a R² = 0.34, with a standard deviation of risk estimated adequate for public health needs. The main variables selected for modelling were summer vegetation, summer minimal temperature and winter minimal temperature. The results confirmed the importance of Remote Sensing data and the valuable contribution of GIS in identifying priority areas for intervention in tourism regions which are endemic to schistosomiasis.

Vigilancia ambiental de casos esporádicos de legionelosis en el municipio de Córdoba (España), 2005-2010

We examined the information of legionellosis surveillance system in the municipality of Cordoba (Spain) as a preventive resource for environmental health management and describes the public health implications of sporadic cases investigations. A multidisciplinary team analyzed information on surveillance of water sites potentially contaminated by Legionella and clinical data of the patients classified like community case; mapping patient's home address using geographic information systems (GIS). Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 was identified in 31 sporadic cases. 53 suspected sources, mainly cooling towers have been investigated. In no event is managed to locate infection source even if poorly maintained systems, structural deficiencies and operational failures were apparent. The use of GIS allowed us to identify two geographic areas where cases are concentrated within one radius of less than 500 meters. The finding of two suspected urban advised to reorient the preventive strategy in public health

Technology Transfer of As-Built and Preliminary Surveys Using GPS, Soft Photogrammetry, and Video Logging, 2002

This research involved two studies: one to determine the local geoid to obtain mean sea level elevation from a global positioning system (GPS) to an accuracy of ±2 cm, and the other to determine the location of roadside features such as mile posts and stop signs for safety studies, geographic information systems (GIS), and maintenance applications, from video imageries collected by a van traveling at traffic speed.

Systematic Identification of High Crash Locations Final Report, 2001

Federal and state policy makers increasingly emphasize the need to reduce highway crash rates. This emphasis is demonstrated in Iowa’s recently released draft Iowa Strategic Highway Safety Plan and by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s placement of “improved transportation safety” at the top of its list of strategic goals. Thus, finding improved methods to enhance highway safety has become a top priority at highway agencies. The objective of this project is to develop tools and procedures by which Iowa engineers can identify potentially hazardous roadway locations and designs, and to demonstrate the utility of these tools by developing candidate lists of high crash locations in the State. An initial task, building an integrated database to facilitate the tools and procedures, is an important product, in and of itself. Accordingly, the Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT) Geographic Information Management System (GIMS) and Geographic Information System Accident Analysis and Location System (GIS-ALAS) databases were integrated with available digital imagery. (The GIMS database contains roadway characteristics, e.g., lane width, surface and shoulder type, and traffic volume, for all public roadways. GIS-ALAS records include data, e.g., vehicles, drivers, roadway conditions, and the crash severity, for crashes occurring on public roadways during then past 10 years.)
