Geospatial Analysis of Environment Pollution

Abstract

The paper goal is to develop a spatial analyses of the most critical environmental issues in the country and how the population concerns could be addressed with the use of spatial technologies. Population perception of environment management relies on its minimum levels. In the recent past, static, fixed scale, multi use, highly accurate, permanent, paper maps compiled over a short period of time was the norm, meanwhile today's world uses a dynamic, single use, variable accuracy, variable scale, digital product made from data possibly retrieved from database derived from multiple sources. The opportunity to combine spatial technology associated with numerical data leading to a structured and genuine analyzes of the country issues turns to be an optimal strategy. We structure a set of digital maps encouraging decision-makers to rely their performance on spatial tools. Coastline pollution stands as a top priority. For the purpose of the analysis, the entire coastline was divided into sectors. Hence, further investigations could be addressed toward space-time relationship to cover the environmental evolution process, which may serve as an input for future predictions.

Analysis of Air Pollution Migration during COVID-19 Lockdown in Krakow, Poland

“…The most popular sensors in Krakow are Airly optical sensors (https://map.airly.org/). The use of local geospatial analysis methods and dedicated solutions allows for a much better understanding of many phenomena (Briggs et al, 2010;Hysenaj, 2016;Zaręba et al, 2019;Lupa et al, 2020). Based on previous research, Airly LCS accuracy in this period was very similar to the reference station measurements and this allows them to be used for geospatial analysis.…”

Perspective of solid waste generation in Albania based on a combination of correlation and interpolation

“…The outcomes elaborated through geospatial tools improve the policy on waste disposal, which cannot be restrained, but controlled. This paper aims to benefit from GIS utilities overlapping multiple layers reflecting different themes to highlight specific issues (Hysenaj 2016). As is the case with maps in general, overlays are more helpful than indicators to accommodate reflexive scrutiny and plural perspectives (Rafols et al 2010).…”

Geospatial analysis of relationship between climate factors and diffusion of air pollution in Chiang Mai, Thailand

“…Geospatial analyses are primarily used to describe a spatial patterns, predicting a patterns, and testing hypothesis based on interpolation or mapping 1 . A clear picture of the periodical changes in time as well as the diffusion map of air pollutants through a region level have been presented 2 . A geospatial maps can be used as a tool to alert or notify people who reside in the hazardous air pollutants areas.…”
