Előadás-felhívás az 5. Digitális Föld Csúcstalálkozóra

Mai postánkból. A Nemzetközi Digitális Föld Társaság titkárságától érkezett felhívás. A soron következő csúcs gyújtópontjában az áll, hogy a Digitális Föld  technológiák hogyan szolgálják a fenntartható fejlődés oktatását. HUNAGI bátorítja mindazon tagjait és partnereit, akik ezen a területen nemzetközi tekintetben számottevő eredményt értek el, keressék a módját, hogy a konferencián előadással vagy poszterrel szerepeljenek. HUNAGI főtitkára, aki a 2008 óta az ISDE szervezet vezetőségi és az IJDE szerkesztőbizottsági tagja vállalja, hogy saját tervezett előadásán felül, beküldött és elfogadott hazai poszteranyagot szükség esetén a helyszínen bemutatja, amennyiben a szerzők kiutazása nem lenne lehetséges.

The International Society for Digital Earth will be hosting the 5th Digital Earth Summit, under the theme “Digital Earth for ESD”, from 9 - 11 November 2014 in Nagoya, Japan. This planned Digital Earth Summit will focus on how Digital Earth technologies and activities have contributed or will contribute to Education for Sustainable Development (ESD). Digital Earth technologies are one of the key technologies to support ESD by visualizing complicated earth system, social system and not only for the current situation but from the past to future.
The Digital Earth Summit Series have been convened at Auckland (2006), Potsdam (2008), Nessebar (2010) and Wellington (2012). This year’s summit will provide inspiration for enriching the digital earth vision and promoting collaborations amongst participating institutions, and also offer a dynamic arena for individuals to share knowledge and experiences.

CALL FOR SPECIAL ISSUE OF JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL INFORMATICS
http://journal.magisz.org/docs/JAI_Special_Issue.pdf

Dear Colleagues,
Journal of Agricultural Informatics (http://journal.magisz.org/), the periodical of European Federation of Information Technology in Agriculture, Food and Environment (EFITA), published by Hungarian Association of Agricultural Informatics (HAAI) plans to launch a Special Issue, entitled „ICT Methods for Harmonizing Sustainable Agriculture and Natural Resources”
In the past profit oriented competition era and in the space of apparently unlimited natural resources and waste reservoirs; agriculture and food industry lagged behind the more profitable industrial and service sectors.
Nowadays, the importance of agriculture, as well as of the connected land-, water- and renewable energy use is to be reevaluated in the limelight of conscious (re)discovering of environmentally benign technologies. Rational harmonization of human demands with natural resources is indispensable to provide good quality and sufficient amount of food for mankind and to ensure sustainable natural resource management at the same time.
Information Technology has been developing more and more powerful hardware and software tools for optimal design and control of complex system, as well as to share the accumulated data & knowledge for global community. Formerly these results were mainly utilized by the industrial and service sectors, however in the forthcoming period, agriculture, food and environmental sectors must have a pioneering role in going ahead with the newest results of IT to face with the above mentioned challenges. In order to keep balance in the space of finite resources and reservoirs, we have to pay more attention to the computer assisted engineering both of local and global systems. Based on natural biosystem principles; agriculture, food and environment can effectively establish a platform for the development of IT supported Sustainability Engineering.
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide an overview on the present challenges, possible solutions and new application frameworks for the sustainable management of agriculture and the connected land-, water- and renewable energy use.
Guest Editors of this Special Issue welcome the submission of high quality review articles, as well as original research papers about conceptual frameworks, analysis, model based problem solving and case studies.
Please, remark your intention about sending your paper to the Special Issue in the electronic submission system as a comment for the Editor. The publication of the Special Issue is scheduled for 2014 Summer.
