Social media has become an integrated part of human communication, both as a means to establish and maintain social relationships, and as a means of sharing and co-creating information. Social media comes with an array of possibilities for individuals as well as organizations, corporations, and authorities. Within the field of crisis communication, social media possibilities such as online sharing and social networking have had an impact on the way crisis information is disseminated and updated. This paper addresses the issues related to using social media for communicating crisis information and broadcasting alert messages to the general population, discusses the role of social media in future pan-European crisis alerting, and presents a prototype system demonstrating the possibilities. An extensive systematic literature review was carried out to identify factors that affect the use of social media for alerting and warning. These factors were mirrored in experiences, collected through interviews, obtained by emergency management organizations in three European countries (Sweden, Czech Republic, and Spain). The factors finally form the basis for suggestions and recommendations regarding the design of technological tools for both communication and information collection to serve as an integral part of a future pan-European crisis alerting system.

“…Another key management tool is near real-time monitoring of ecosystem threats utilizing community-based monitoring, remotely-sensed data, or in-situ sensors. These systems enable PA managers with time-sensitive alerts on deforestation threats of fires and illegal extractives to strategically patrol protected areas and enable rapid response to prevent further ecosystem destruction (e.g., [74][75][76][77]). …”

Abstract:Identifying protected areas most susceptible to climate change and deforestation represents critical information for determining conservation investments. Development of effective landscape interventions is required to ensure the preservation and protection of these areas essential to ecosystem service provision, provide high biodiversity value, and serve a critical habitat connectivity role. We identified vulnerable protected areas in the humid tropical forest biome using climate metrics for 2050 and future deforestation risk for 2024 modeled from historical deforestation and global drivers of deforestation. Results show distinct continental and regional patterns of combined threats to protected areas. Eleven Mha (2%) of global humid tropical protected area was exposed to the highest combined threats and should be prioritized for investments in landscape interventions focused on adaptation to climate stressors. Global tropical protected area exposed to the lowest deforestation risk but highest climate risks totaled 135 Mha (26%). Thirty-five percent of South America's protected area fell into this risk category and should be prioritized for increasing protected area size and connectivity to facilitate species movement. Global humid tropical protected area exposed to a combination of the lowest deforestation and lowest climate risks totaled 89 Mha (17%), and were disproportionately located in Africa (34%) and Asia (17%), indicating opportunities for low-risk conservation investments for improved connectivity to these potential climate refugia. This type of biome-scale, protected area analysis, combining both climate change and deforestation threats, is critical to informing policies and landscape interventions to maximize investments for environmental conservation and increase ecosystem resilience to climate change.

“…ArcGIS provides software for spatial data processing (ArcGIS for Desktop), data storage system (Geodatabase), software for spatial data sharing (ArcGIS for Server), and a multi-purpose spatial data platform (Portal for ArcGIS) for data utilization. Geoserver is used to generate and publish web-based map service and web feature service, keyhole markup language, and all of the things necessary to the development of WebGIS application [7] [19]. The management process of ESDM One Map Indonesia is performed in two ways.…”

“…With the internet, the distribution process of a considerable number of data becomes more efficient compared to manual dissemination. In the development, GIS and WebGIS-based analyses are increasingly adopted for a variety of purposes, such as environment and resource analysis [11], [15], [18], [21], [26]; rainfall distribution analysis [3], mining analysis [16], [19]; monitoring activities [7], [22], [25]; disaster analysis [1], [4], [17], [28]; and urban planning [12], [13], [14], [27]. Stancovic et al [19] demonstrated the benefits of WebGIS system for the management of abandoned mining sites in Serbia.…”

Abstract. The law number 4 : 2011 and Presidential Decree number 9 : 2016 policy in Indonesia regulates the management of standardization and unification of geospatial data called One Map Policy to achieved one geospatial information which is needed across the institution and ministries. Ministry of Energy and Minerals Resources (MEMR) of Republic Indonesia have managed diverse data which are dynamic and periodically changing, completed with their spatial aspect. To manage those datasets to follow the one map policy, Center of Data and Information Technology unit with task is managing data and information technology developed a Web-GIS platform called ESDM One Map Indonesia that can be used for displaying, analyzing, and monitoring energy and mineral resources. ESDM One Map Indonesia is expected to support various stakeholders in their decision and policy making process, especially in the case of territorial issues. The data in this system is stored in PostgreSQL that exist in an enterprise geodatabase which then published as map services in WMS, WFS, or KML format using Enterprise GIS. Overall, this Web-GIS application could help in monitoring the data development and performing spatial analysis which are can be used for supporting the decision maker. ESDM One Map Indonesia is strong efforts -from MEMR of Republic Indonesia in the form of Web-GIS application for supporting the Indonesian One Map Policy which requires-support and data collaboration from another Ministry/Organization. The willingness from MEMR still needs a support especially keep up with the advancement of Web-GIS based application so that the service provided by ESDM One Map Indonesia can be continuously maintained.
