Isikdag, U. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)The Ubiquitous Computing and the Internet-of-Things concepts are gathering more attention day-by-day. In the near future networks of interconnected sensors that are monitoring the environment around us will start to generate enormous amounts of data. This newly emerging paradigm can be named as Sensors Everywhere”. This new paradigm will lead ...conference paper 2011

Nedkov, S. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)City infrastructures are sensitive to disasters. To aid rescue workers and citizens, a system is needed which determines the shortest route to a certain location, taking the damages of the infrastructure into account. The biggest disadvantage of current navigation systems is that they are “closed” i.e. they are built on top of commercial...conference paper 2011

Thompson, R.J. (author), Van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author), Van de Giesen, N.C. (author), Goulevitch, B. (author)“Of droughts and flooding rains” (Dorothea Mackellar 1885-1968, “My Country”). The recent flooding in Queensland affected rural areas, mines, towns and cities including the state capital. Tracking such an event on a day-by day basis raises practical and theoretical issues. While this year’s floods captured world headlines, there is a major...conference paper 2011

Girard, G. (author), Cote, S. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author), Barette, Y. (author), St-Pierre, J. (author), Van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author)Many solutions have been proposed for indoor pedestrian navigation. Some rely on pre-installed sensor networks, which offer good accuracy but are limited to areas that have been prepared for that purpose, thus requiring an expensive and possibly time-consuming process. Such methods are therefore inappropriate for navigation in emergency...journal article 2011

Boufidou, E. (author), Commandeur, T.J.F. (author), Nedkov, S.B. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)Modern large cities are characterized by a high building concentration, little aeration and lack of green spaces. Such characteristics create an urban climate which is different from the climate outside of cities. An example of an urban climate effect is the so-called Urban Heat Island: cities tend to be warmer than the surrounding rural areas....conference paper 2011

(author)This paper presents the on-going project on 3D cadastre modelling in the Russian Federation. The aim of this project is to provide guidance in the development of a prototype and to create favourable legal and institutional conditions for the introduction of 3D cadastre modelling in the Russian Federation based on experience of the Netherlands...conference paper 2011

Van den Brink, L. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)This paper presents key aspects of the development of a Dutch 3D standard IMGeo as a CityGML ADE. The new ADE is modeled using UML class diagrams. However the OGC CityGML specification does not provide clear rules on modeling an ADE in UML. This paper describes how the extension was built, which provides general insight how CityGML can be...conference paper 2012

Zlatanova, S. (author), Stoter, J. (author), Isikdag, U. (author)3D standards have been developed throughout the years for many different purposes: visualisation (fast and realistic), data management (efficient storage), modelling (validity and topology) or data exchange (platform independence). The developers also vary from companies to international standardisation organisations that originated from CAD/BIM...conference paper 2012

Kemec, S. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author), Duzgun, S.

The authors propose a conceptual framework with the consideration of all stakeholders related to the disaster management to have a better risk management, and to guide the design...conference paper 2012

Nedkov, S. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)Gathering infrastructure data in emergency situations is challenging. The affected by a disaster areas are often large and the needed observations numerous. Spaceborne remote sensing techniques cover large areas but they are of limited use as their field of view may be blocked by clouds, smoke, buildings, highways, etc. Remote sensing products...conference paper 2012

Siebritz, L. (author), Sithole, G. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)The potential for volunteer groups to contribute geographic data to National Mapping Agencies has been widely recognised. Several investigations have been done to determine the geometric accuracy of this data for the purposes of national mapping. Beyond accuracy, from a production perspective National Mapping Agencies will also be interested in...conference paper 2012
