“… 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.
That's the power of GIS: turning complex questions into informed decisions…”

“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…”

“We’re entering the age of finitude capitalism”

* "There are many states, or “company-states”, which are currently setting up new types of semi-formal colonisation, in various places." Interview with economist Arnaud Orain >>

* What kind of capitalism is possible in a world of limited resources? Arnaud Orain
"Adapted to a world of limited resources, this "capitalism of finitude" seeks to privatize and militarize the seas and territories, impose high prices, consolidate resource "silos," and reserve exclusive markets. Drastically reducing our energy consumption is one alternative to this authoritarian capitalism, but the means to protect it remain unclear.' >>

#Kayapó #ForestDefenders Urge #UnitedNations to Help Halt Illegal #GoldMining in #Brazil

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews
July 23, 2024

GENEVA -- "#Indigenous from Brazil urged the United Nations to join them and demand Brazil halt illegal gold mining, and its #mercury #contamination, now destroying the ancestral homelands of #Kayapó, #Yanomami and #Munduruku Peoples, during the U.N. Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

"Doto Takak Ire, Mebêngôkre, said, 'The Kayapó are still warriors and we will always be defenders of the forests.'

"'We do not want any kind of #exploitation of #NaturalResources in our territories. We want the #Amazon protected, so that our children and all the children of the world can grow up healthy.'"
