Abstract:The article presents new tourism resources in the Arctic: stone structures, natural sculptures and objects of mixed natural and man-made origin. In the process of research of stone objects of the Arctic, the authors used standard geographical approaches and methods (adapted in physical and social geography), which ensure the identification of the relationship of stone objects with the landscape-geographical and socio-cultural environment, allow us to determine their rational functions in the geo-cultural spher… Show more
“…The concept the world around, like the subject of the same name in the system of primary school education, covers geo-space (the geographic shell of the Earth, including elements of the socio-sphere), objects of the Solar System and the Universe. This approach is the basis for the formation of systems thinking in childhood, a resource for increasing the awareness of any practical actions in adulthood, as well as a guarantee of responsibility in the field of managerial decision-making (Mazurov 1999, Solomin 2001, Dronov et al 2018, Grigoryev et al 2020. The worldview role of geographic representations is one of the important reasons for the development of geographic education, which could become continuous and universal.…”

The publication is dedicated to the memory of N.A. Bogdanov (1954-2020), Doctor of Geography, Leading Researcher of the Laboratory of Geomorphology of the Institute of Geography of the Russian Academy of Sciences, who participated in the preparation of materials and publication of abstracts on March 1, 2020. The article raises the question of the need for the development of universal geographic education, which forms the cultural appearance of a person and the scientific picture of the world of our era. The consequences of typical technical errors in working with the topographic plan are analyzed: the sides of the horizon are not indicated; north is specified with an error; the original high-quality materials were used incorrectly; magnetic north is indicated, but the year of the topographic survey is not indicated; supplemented topographic maps are superimposed on the historically previous topographic base. The changes in the current situation, according to the authors, are facilitated by the following tasks: to increase the number of hours of teaching geography at school; pay more attention to practical orienteering exercises; expand the selection of popular geographic literature to raise public awareness of the possibilities of classical methods and fundamental achievements of modern geography; and some others. Keywords: cartography, education, archaeological sites, interpretation, information

ATINER is an Athens-based World Association of Academics and Researchers based inAthens. ATINER is an independent and non-profit Association with a Mission to become a forum where Academics and Researchers from all over the world can meet in Athens, exchange ideas on their research and discuss future developments in their disciplines, as well as engage with professionals from other fields. Athens was chosen because of its long history of academic gatherings, which go back thousands of years to Plato's Academy and Aristotle's Lyceum. Both these historic places are within walking distance from ATINER's downtown offices. Since antiquity, Athens was an open city. In the words of Pericles, Athens"…is open to the world, we never expel a foreigner from learning or seeing".
("Pericles' Funeral Oration", in Thucydides, The History of the Peloponnesian War). It is ATINER's mission to revive the glory of Ancient Athens by inviting the World Academic Community to the city, to learn from each other in an environment of freedom and respect for other people's opinions and beliefs.After all, the free expression of one's opinion formed the basis for the development of democracy, and Athens was its cradle. As it turned out, the Golden Age of Athens was in fact, the Golden Age of the Western Civilization. Education and (Re)searching for the 'truth' are the pillars of any free (democratic) society. This is the reason why Education and Research are the two core words in ATINER's name.
The dolmen of Guadalperal (Spain) became well known in 2019 when the waters of the reservoir in which it had long been submerged became so depleted as to leave it above water and highly visible. This gave rise to great media and social polemic. In this study, we deal with the ‘recovery’ of the dolmen using digital techniques, including a strategy of geometrical documentation of long, medium and short-range through the use of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and photogrammetry. The result is a set of products that trace the changes that have taken place in the monument since its excavation in 1925, the identification of conditions affecting it and the acquisition of new information on the decorated supports that formed part of the megalithic architecture. To do so, the time during which it was accessible (i.e., not underwater) was used to acquire the only heritage information currently available on the monument. This new information offers a complete assessment of a megalithic monument using a protocol that is exportable to other sites submerged in lakes or reservoirs.
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.
