Nurture Nature
Climate change baffl es us all with
Undesirable consequences
As extreme heat and cold in many parts of the world
Floods in Europe, Flash fl ood in India
Unexpected summer and winter.
The mankind with fl aunting intelligence and knowledge
And powerful technological tools
May be able to understand and explain such phenomena
But may not be able to address them
Unless changes …

Convergence – The mantra
The mobile phone has it all.
Camera, music, LBS, Internet, wireless, TV,…
Many such functions were not imagined
When mobile was invented
As its mobility in itself was a major technological leap.
The positioning and navigation technologies
Appear to be following the similar logical transitions
Where in various positioning tools and functionalities

Slums in Egypt – as in many developing countries – are considered as one of the most important problems in Egypt. There are about 1,100 slum areas hosting about 16 million inhabitants. Slums in Egypt vary considerably in their characteristics which make prioritization and intervention policy a debatable issue.

The territory of the Balkan Peninsula (BP) is one of the most active geodynamical regions in Europe. Numbers of publications are devoted to this problem. An important indicator in geodynamical point of view is an eventual station movement of GNSS network stations. Determination of the size and direction of the vectors of movement, their analysis and assessment is of significant importance for their further interpretation with a view to present the geodynamical picture of the region.

During the ultra-communist Khmer Rouge regime (1975-79) in Cambodia, the private ownership of land was abolished and it remained unrecognized also during the following 10-year long Vietnamese-backed Communist government (1979-89). All land-related documents, including the land register, maps and geodetic networks were systematically destroyed as well as most professionals and educated people eliminated during the tragic 1975-79 period.

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology has revolutionised the way 3-dimensional positions are determined on and above the Earth’s surface. GNSS-based positioning has become a vital tool for a wide range of applications in areas such as surveying, mapping, asset management, precision agriculture, engineering and construction. A lesser known application that has benefited immensely from the introduction of GNSS technology is animal tracking.
