  1. 1. Using a GIS to enable an economic, land use and energy output comparison between small wind powered turbines and large-scale wind farms: the case of Oslo, Norway.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Colin Potter; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Wind power; Renewable energy sources; urban wind energy; urban areas; planning; vertical axis wind turbines; comparative studies; urban integrated energy systems; Oslo; Roan; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Responding to an identified knowledge gap, the study aims to determine if smaller wind turbines located on top of existing urban buildings are more resource efficient (land utilization and economically) than large scale wind farms. To answer this question, using a GIS, the resource efficiency of the Roan wind farm in Northern Norway was compared to a theoretical modeled installation of small-scale wind turbines on top of buildings within a 2km radius study zone in central Oslo.

  3. 2. Developing Data Extraction and Dynamic Data Visualization (Styling) Modules for Web GIS Risk Assessment System (WGRAS)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Daniel Assefa; [2018]
    Keywords : Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Disaster Risk Management; web GIS; Volunteered Geographic Information VGI ; Map Visualization and styling; Geo-spatial data extraction; OpenStreetMap OSM ; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Interactive web-GIS tools play an important role in determining disaster risk assessment which ultimately result in reduction of unexpected damages, cost and saves millions of lives. Disaster management practitioners largely benefited information at their disposal about location where possible incidents are eminent, anticipate the impact and project possible outcomes to help mitigate and organize proper response.

  4. 3. Domestic energy consumption and social living standards : a GIS analysis within the Greater London Authority area

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Agnieszka Griffin; [2014]
    Keywords : energy efficiency measures; domestic energy consumption; index of multiple deprivation; CO2 emissions; Geographically Weighted Regression GWR ; GIS; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : People’s everyday needs are expressed in demands for goods and services. These demands are directly related to the production processes and the use of resources, including energy resources. Domestic energy consumption depends on the weather conditions, the energy performance of the building, and fuel prices. READ MORE
