Una aproximación volumétrica a la desagregación espacial de la población combinando cartografía temática y datos LIDAR
2016
[EN] Availability of high resolution population distribution data, independent of the administrative units in which demographic statistics are collected, is a real necessity in many fields: risk evaluation due to earthquakes, flooding or fires, to name just a few, integration between socio-demographic and environmental or geographical information collected in different formats, policy design for the provision public services, such as health, education or public transport, or mobility studies in urban areas or metropolitan regions. Because of this, the literature has explored various methods of population downscaling, collected at communality or census tract level, into smaller areas; typica…
La aldea maldita y la cultura fin de siglo
2004
Este artículo pretende ser una reflexión sobre la posible influencia de la literatura y sobre todo de las artes plásticas-fotografía del fin de siglo y aledaños, en una de las películas españolas más apreciadas del período silente. El análisis se inscribe por tanto en esa amplia esfera de constante interrelación entre el cine y el resto de disciplinas artísticas, en la que quedan todavía muchos caminos por explorar. (A)

Digital orthophotos at a scale of 1:5000 from high resolution satellite images
2004
This paper describes the first results of a study, carried out within the national research program “Cofin2001”, on the potential use of high resolution satellite images for making digital orthophotos at a scale of 1:5000 and 1:10,000. Particularly, images from IKONOS II and QuickBird of four different types of areas were employed: the first area is the city of Palermo, a greatly urbanized area; the second area is the extra-urban territory near the town of Contessa Entellina in south-western Sicily; the third area is the famous tourist resort of Scopello, in the western Sicily; the last area is the Caselle Airport, a flat zone near Torino. The first three images were orthorectified by using…

Remote Sensing applications in archaeology
2011
In recent years Remote Sensing applications in archaeology have become increasingly frequent. This plurality of applications depends mostly on the rising interest of the scientific community in modern methods for surveying geographic data, which have become increasingly powerful, automatic and reliable. Remote Sensing, with its various techniques, offers the rapid acquisition of a huge quantity of metric and qualitative data in order to describe or to identify archaeological sites. For an appropriate and widespread use of these data, it is still necessary to have recourse to GIS techniques; as a matter of fact, only the combined use of both methodologies provides a full exploitation of thei…
SPIE Proceedings Vol. 8538 Earth Resources and Environmental Remote Sensing/GIS Applications III
2012
These proceedings contain 53 papers that were presented at the SPIE Conference “Earth Resources and Environmental Remote Sensing/GIS Applications” (Conference 8538A) formerly known under the title ‘Remote Sensing for Environmental Monitoring, GIS Applications, and Geology’. The Conference took place in Edinburgh, United Kingdom from 24 September to 27 September 2012. It was the twelfth Conference with this topic after its inauguration in Toulouse, France, in 2001. The Conference sessions with presented papers and interactive posters were grouped into the following themes: Processing Methodologies, Hazard Mitigation Geologic Application, Processing Methodologies, Infrastructures and Urban Ar…
EDITORIAL FOR SPECIAL ISSUE: “GEOMATICS APPLICATION FOR GEOGRAPHY (GAG)” in GEOGRAPHIA TECHNICA
2021
Geomatics or Geography, that is the question! This is how the authors' idea of merging Geomatics and Geography in this special issue begins, paraphrasing a Shakespearean citation. The common principle that unites these two scientific disciplines, which attempt to describe the territory in the most straightforward way possible. On the other hand, Geomatics and Geography derived from “gèo- “[greek γεω-], as first element of composed words in learned and scientific terminology, meaning “earth”, “globe”, “land surface”.
Object oriented methodology for change detection technique: the case of Scopello-Sicily
2014
This paper describes a change detection approach based on an object-based classification of remote sensing data for the change detection. The history of urban growth and urbanisation reveals that urban areas belong to the most dynamic land cover types on earth. The trend of urban growth is usually towards the urban-rural fringe where there are less built areas, irrigation and other water management systems. Regardless of the regional economic importance, urban growth, particularly the expansion of residential and commercial land use towards the periphery of urban areas, has an impact on the ecosystem. It is evident that such trend of urban growth has an impact on natural resources and on la…
La presencia de representaciones visuales de contenido religioso en la escuela pública constitucionalmente laica: un estudio exploratorio en aulas de…
2016
espanolUna de las manifestaciones que genera confusion en el marco de la relacion entre el Estado Laico, el principio de neutralidad y el ejercicio del derecho a la educacion, es la presencia de simbolos religiosos en la escuela publica. El objetivo del estudio es analizar, a traves de un sistema cuantitativo y cualitativo, la representacion de las figuras humanas con contenido religioso en diez aulas de educacion infantil de colegios publicos de una ciudad capital. En la mitad de colegios visitados existe presencia de figuras humanas con contenido religioso. Se observa una transformacion del discurso que sobrepasa la representacion del crucifijo. Los mensajes distorsionan el principio de n…
