Geoportal is an indispensable tool for processing data related to city infrastructure, life support systems; for the analysis of statistics of fires and other emergency situations in the city; to create thematic layers of electron-vector maps showing the city’s infrastructure and other information necessary for the management of the SNS units; for identification of fire risks for residential buildings and public buildings of Lviv city and mapping them according to the risk levels in the form of a risk map. The analysis of the city’s infrastructure allows us to study in detail the problematic issues related to fire and technological safety. The geoportal and its cartographic information of the information will allow the head of the rescue unit, during the post-emergency situation, to find the information necessary for the effective performance of rescue operations and to assess the potential risks.
Currently, global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) play a key role in the broad field of security and human life. In principle, almost every area of human activity (for example, mining, energy or construction) systems related to saving human life are introduced. Generally, satellite navigation is an indispensable element of this type of systems. In this paper, authors present basic principles of the GNSS operation and the current state of knowledge about usage of the global navigation satellite systems in the area of safety, protection and rescue issues.
The fundamental basis for the scientific progress is the cheaper technology. Systems analysis and engineering, decision-making systems are based on data completeness and their validation. The study aims to provide the following grounds for a systematic comparison of economic and environmental performance of vehicles with different fuel drives. The issue of logistical attractiveness and compatibility for Ukraine is especially relevant today. Thus, specific fuel consumption is calculated by determining the cost of electricity that goes to charge the traction battery from the mains and is equivalently converted into the cost of fuel. The paper presents a method of calculating the equivalent fuel consumption for electric vehicles according to European (l per 100 km) and American standards (miles per 1 gallon). According to the results of fuel efficiency studies, it is established that the equivalent fuel consumption on the territory of Ukraine of the studied electric vehicles is 8-10 times lower than the fuel consumption of cars of the same class with internal combustion engines.
With the agricultural industry being vital for regional food safety, the extreme conditions under which it operated in Ukraine during the first half of 2022 has offered a unique insight on vulnerabilities of supply chains as well as the necessity of ensuring transport and logistics support for grain supply chain using adaptive methods. During that time frame, existing infrastructure, logistics, and involved materials were at risk of being stolen or by being destroyed due to direct combat damage or resulting fires. Established food transportation routes suffered from blockades, destruction, or congestion. Switching modes of transport for crop grains proved difficult with the absence of required transport and logistics support. The switch to vegetable oil transport proved harder still. Meanwhile, the re-established naval transportation shed a spotlight on GIS instruments that became critical for the safety of regional food supply chain. This inspired the idea of implementing methods of assessing the safety of transport facilities with the direct participation of the user based on geographic information. These methods can be key in enabling new export routes as part of a stable grain supply chain, supporting logistics behind constructing pipelines for transportation of vegetable oils. As the food safety of the world depends on new export routes, ensuring their efficiency and security will always remain relevant.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
