Aplikasi Sistem Maklumat Geografi (GIS) Dalam Pemetaan Zon Kebolehrentanan Kegagalan Cerun Menggunakan Rangkaian Saraf Buatan (ANN) Di Pulau Pinang Malaysia

Kegagalan cerun merupakan fenomena yang sering berlaku di Malaysia yang menyebabkan kehilangan nyawa, kerosakan harta benda dan kemusnahan alam sekitar. Kegagalan cerun berlaku disebabkan faktor ruangan dan faktor bukan ruangan. Kawasan kajian adalah di Pulau Pinang. Kajian ini hanya akan mengambil kira faktor ruangan yang mempengaruhi kegagalan cerun. Pembangunan yang tidak terkawal menyumbang pada bencana ini. Oleh itu kajian ini adalah bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti faktor ruangan yang mempengaruhi kegagalan cerun dan menganalisis ciri-ciri fizikal kegagalan cerun

Pembangunan Model Ruangan Kegagalan Cerun Di Pulau Pinang

Peningkatan populasi seiring dengan perkembangan pembangunan yang kian pesat membangun khususnya di Malaysia mendatangkan pelbagai bencana alam sekitar seperti kegagalan cerun. Peningkatan kejadian kegagalan cerun di Malaysia menyebabkan kemusnahan harta benda, nyawa dan alam sekitar. Sebanyak 700 kes kegagalan cerun telah dilaporkan oleh akhbar sepanjang tahun 2015. Walau bagaimanapun menurut laporan dari Jabatan Kerja Raya pada 2009, sebanyak 440 kes telah dilaporkan dari tahun 1973-2007 yang mana sebanyak 31 kes melibatkan kematian, beratus ribu menangung kerugian dan beribu orang telah dipindahkan. Kajian ini bertujuan mengenalpasti corak taburan pelbagai jenis kegagalan cerun, seterusnya memodelkan dan menilai ketepatan pelbagai jenis kegagalan cerun menggunakan rangkaian saraf buatan

Gis in studying slope failure in Penang: challenges and potential

Geographic Information System (GIS) is an information system that is used to store, display, analyse and manipulate spatial data. Geographic information system (GIS) can help users to visualise, question, analyse, and interpret data to understand patterns, trends, and relationships. GISbased maps and visualizations have greatly assisted understanding of situations. In recent years, slope failure hazard assessment has played an important role in developing land utilisation planning aimed at minimizing the loss of lives and damages to property. There are various GIS-based slope failure studies that involve many approaches. These approaches can be classified into qualitative factor overlay, geotechnical process models, and statistical models. At present, not many studies have satisfactorily studied the integration of these models with GIS to map slope failure. This paper deals with several aspects of landslide by presenting a focused review of GIS-based slope failure hazard zone. The paper starts with a framework for GIS-based study of slope failure, followed by a critical review of the state-of-the-art applications of GIS and digital elevation models (DEM) for mapping and modelling landslide hazards. The paper ends with a description of an integrated system for effective landslide hazard zonation. The adoption of a GIS-based framework for knowledge discovery allows designers to identify the suitability of development within certain areas. The usage of GIS can be beneficial in various fields, including the issue of slope failure. Moreover, GIS is also beneficial to organisations of all sizes and in virtually every industry. GIS is important in understanding what is happening and forecasting future trend in a geographic space

Environmental management: A study on the precautionary principle in siak regency of Indonesia towards sustainable development

The use of the precautionary principle to the area of environmental management and sustainability, largely in response to the necessity of every each individual state to protect their rights and interests in order to safeguard the Mother Nature. Therefore, this study examines the used of the precautionary principle in the Siak Regency of Indonesia focusing on the planning laws in relation to the environmental management and sustainability from the legal perspectives; identify actions, which deal with the protection to the environment as well as a tool for the achievement in sustainable development

Global citizenship elements in Malaysian Primary School Curriculum towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGS)

Global Citizenship (GC) is still a new concept in Malaysian education scenario, and existing research shows that a critical approach to teaching and learning about global issues is largely absent within Malaysian school settings. Thus, the purpose of this study is to explore the GC elements, embedded in the Malaysian education curriculum within the UNESCO framework. This paper will discuss the result of document analysis done on Malaysian primary school core subjects, which used critical discourse analysis to analyze the relevant parts of the curriculum within the core subjects. The analysis revealed that GC is taught across the curriculum in Malaysia, which aims to increase students’ knowledge, skills and behavior towards sustainability. GCE was presented in the curriculum as a multidisciplinary topic which follows through the values, aims and tasks of the core subjects. This study provides a clear starting point for future research of GC and its implementation and impacts in Malaysian education system, and hope to open the eyes and minds of the policy makers in Malaysia, the importance of GC which has a crucial role to play in tackling injustices and making the world a more just and sustainable place
