    “… Th[is] article explores how …GIS and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) were used to identify the best locations for fire observation towers in a forested region of Iran. By combining elevation, slope, road access, and visibility analysis, the research team created a data-driven model to maximize monitoring coverage and support forest protection efforts.
    … The methodology could be applied to everything from emergency management and environmental monitoring to public infrastructure and asset management.

    “Forests have been seriously affected by fire; therefore, it is necessary to detect fire from the observation towers. Currently, the number of observation towers and the effectiveness of their distribution is unknown. The aim of the current research is to determine the current and potential areas that can be seen from the observation towers. Another goal of this research is to propose a new network to maximize its effectiveness. The analysis of the field of view in …GIS software was done by integrating the digital height model and the road network map, vegetation cover, etc. to determine the entire surface of a field of view. It was found that the observation towers resulting from the designed model approximately cover the studied area for the supervision of the security staff. In addition to the designed model, an experienced expert staff took a close look at the field with GPS and according to the experiences, selected places for the construction of an observation tower and placed them on the designed model, and then witnessed the approximate coverage of the field visit…”

  9. Energy stability or a 'climate bomb'? The arguments around Beetaloo
    By Matt Garrick

    The Northern Territory government says it "stared down the hypocrites" to get gas flowing from the Beetaloo Sub-Basin. But will the project be the economic game changer that's been promised?

    For the first time, a geologic map funded through the STATEMAP component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program was published in direct response to a Tribal Nation’s science needs.
    The Utah Geological Survey, in collaboration with the Navajo Nation, recently published the geologic map of the Oljeto 7.5-minute quadrangle in southeastern Utah.
    STATEMAP plays a critical role nationwide by matching federal funds with state geological surveys to produce high-priority geologic maps that address societal needs, from infrastructure planning and responsible land use to natural hazard mitigation and groundwater resource management.
    Geologic maps provide a foundational framework for understanding Earth’s resources and processes. Detailed mapping gives resource managers and other stakeholders the scientific information they need to make informed decisions about the land and resources they manage.
    For the Oljeto quadrangle, the mapping work supports Navajo Nation science needs by helping better understand the relationship between regional geology and groundwater resources.
