A deeper knowledge of the landscape elements requires a thorough interpretation of the objects in an area and a merging with data from already measured roads, catastrophes, vegetation, soil, map (Salvemini et al. 2011). looked. ...
The chapter aims to develop a conceptual framework for orienting the resilience-building challenges in planning. In a world in which the only certainty is uncertainty, resilience has become one of the most widely used concepts that has come to prominence in understanding and managing complex systems in the last decade (Welsh, Geogr J, 180:15–26, 2014). The concept of resilience was firstly formulated in ecology during the 1960s, but it has influenced many other research fields. With the advent of the social-ecological perspective, the resilience theory has also influenced political and human geography and environmental studies, with new explorations and paradigms (Davoudi et al, Plan Theory Pract 13:299–333, 2012). In particular, resilience has become a “pillar” of disaster management, climate adaptation, and regional economic development (Davoudi et al, Plan Pract Res, 28:307–322, 2013). However, the widespread use of resilience thinking has not brought any conceptual clarity but has instead contributed to the fuzzy character of the concept. The chapter firstly traces the conception of resilience and its three main currents: engineering resilience, ecological resilience, and socio-ecological resilience. Secondly, it presents how resilience can be linked with vulnerability, and finally it outlines the resilience interpretative approach to emergency management asserted in this work. The chapter also deals with the criticism to resilience in the literature, such as the unified positive meaning given to the concept and the devolution involving responsibility.
... Дані предметної сфери, створені у різноманітних прикладних додатках за окремими специфікаціями різними розробниками як правило дублюються, а їх спільне використання ускладнено через непридатність до інтеграції [13]. Сумісність або придатність даних до інтеграції у конкретних умовах ґрунтується на понятті інтероперабельності, під яким розуміється здатність до взаємодії, яка досягається дотримання певних правил створення незалежно розроблених геопросторових наборів даних на основі єдиних затверджених стандартів [17,19]. Так, з метою досягнення інтероперабельності геоінформаційних моделей зон обмежень до складу стандартів європейської інфраструктури INSPIRE внесені тематичні розділи, у яких розроблено докладні технічні специфікації концептуальних моделей даних, каталоги класів об'єктів, правила цифрового опису, правила картографування та вимоги до метаданих, якості й технології збирання даних [18,20]. ...
Розглянуто види гетерогенності наборів геопросторових даних зон обмежень та обтяжень використання земель. Встановлено семантичну неоднорідність, що зумовлена невизначеністю ключових понять в діючих нормативних документах. Запропоновано шляхи досягнення інтероперабельності на основі впровадження єдиного класифікатору територіальних зон та формування бази нормативних даних у складі нормативно-правових документів, технічних регламентів, методик для реалізації функцій реєстрації зон обмежень в системах земельного і містобудівного кадастрів.
... Metadata are, obviously, the first call of duty for an information infrastructure at any scale to secure understanding of the diverse datasets -their origin, contents, purpose, format, and access, among others. Development and agreement on data models and network service architecture is also needed, as exemplified by Plan4all project which proposes solutions for seven INSPIRE themes that are relevant for planning: land cover; land use; utility and government services; production and industrial facilities; agricultural and aquaculture facilities; areas management/restriction/regulation zones and reporting units; and natural risk zones (Salvemini, & Iannucci, 2011). Preceding this effort is Hopkins' et al. (2005) provision of the conceptual schema for organising the planning data, actors, assets, actions, decision situations, plans and system architecture for implementation of Planning Markup Language. ...
Theoretical and practical aspects of development of strategic prospects for the land reform implementation in Ukraine have been analysed, possible consequences of termination of moratorium on land sale and the need to improve management in the process of the national land reform implementation have been determined in the article. The main strategic priorities of land relations in Ukraine have been covered. The research vector is focused on taking into account principles of land resource management regulated by specific methods and forms of legal impact on the land market formation and free circulation of land in general, management in a particular area complying with theoretical foundations of basic mechanisms of public administration and regulation. The conceptual foundations of strategic prospects for the implementation of the land reform in Ukraine and the launch of the land market have been presented in the article. It has been noted that the strategic prospects for the implementation of land reform in Ukraine will make it possible to achieve economic, social and environmental effects and to implement a number of sustainable development goals. The main legislation issues and the need of certain changes, improvement of public administration in the area of land relations enabling the economic growth in Ukraine have been covered. Keywords: land market, moratorium, land reform, land protection, monetary valuation of land, strategy, sustainable development, competitiveness.
Ensuring public administration of national security is currently gaining extreme significance as seen from the perspective of geopolitical transformations. The addressed issue is particularly relevant and calls for a thorough and systematic research, in view of the global economic crisis, the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and the global geopolitical transformations and threats that have swept over the world during the recent decade. Despite the sound regulatory framework for public administration in the field of national security and the existing mechanisms of state regulation therein, the effectiveness of public administration in protecting national interests and ensuring the security of individuals, society and the state from external and internal threats requires further enquiry. That said, public administration of national security encompasses the mechanisms to ensure the safeguarding of vital interests of man and citizen, society and the state, and accordingly the sustainable development of society, prompt detection, prevention and neutralization of real and potential threats to national interests. Key words: geopolitical security, geopolitical threats, public administration, national security, social security, COVID-19.
The Physical Planning Information System was introduced in 2013 as the Croatian central physical planning point. It consists of a publicly accessible geoportal and a variety of modules, which are separate custom-made web applications for entering, uploading and editing alphanumeric and/or georeferenced graphic data by authorized users. Each module, such as eDozvola (ePermit), ePlanovi (ePlans), eNekretnine (eProperties) and a few others, supplemented by submodules in some cases, deals with specific tasks and processes in accordance with the regulations in the field of construction, physical planning, property appraisal, etc. In this paper we will present the concept of the information system as a whole, briefly review the functionalities of the recently redesigned geoportal, as well as some of the key modules, with an emphasis on the eKatalog (eCatalogue) module, which serves as a platform for discovery of spatial plans in force and other kinds of documents relevant for physical planning (i.e. territorial monitoring reports, scientific and expert papers, sectorial documents, etc.) by means of INSPIRE-compliant and custom metadata, and for publishing spatial plans and documents on the geoportal so as to make them available to the general public. Plans for the future development of the information system will also be outlined.
The chapter critically examines the contemporary structure of risk management by drawing on resilience perspective. Usually, disaster risk studies and emergency management are rooted in the PPRR chain (prevision, prevention, response and recovery) in which each step includes several actions, and competences are laid down by law. Its emphasis is on identifying exposure and vulnerability to risk and on bouncing back to normalcy. The result is a rigid process in which there is great attention given to the more predictable types of events and impacts, while less consideration is given to the interactions among actors across multiple scales and time frames. Network and cooperative relationships are taken for granted, even if they include a large number of actors with different skills. The central argument of the chapter is the key role that knowledge production, implementation and dissemination and the learning processes have in building resilience. The first part of the chapter analyses the multiple levels and sectors of interventions of the PPRR chain, illustrating the cross-scale challenges; while the second part problematises the integration of diverse disciplines knowledge and the role of collaborative knowledge production in a resilience approach.
Over the years, city and territory have been transformed disproportionately and the planning appears to have lost control over the dynamics of the events that, unfortunately, have caused indelible changes on urban and environmental systems. The reworking of alphanumeric and geographic data through the territorial information system can be useful as technical support and methodological knowledge capable of intervening and redeveloping the residential centers. In fact, cities and their dynamics can be visualized with tools and machinery capable of representing them in a graphic or schematic way. This study presents some Italian experiences of urban renewal made possible by territorial information systems. The achieved results attest that technological innovation represents a great opportunity for planning increasingly smart cities, in addition to having a greater influence on redevelopment processes in the government of the territory and improving services distribution and the decision making process.
