Geographic information extraction from texts
A large volume of unstructured texts, containing valuable geographic information, is available online. This information – provided implicitly or explicitly – is useful not only for scientific studies (e.g., spatial humanities) but also for many practical applications (e.g., geographic information retrieval). Although large progress has been achieved in geographic information extraction from texts, there are still unsolved challenges and issues, ranging from methods, systems, and data, to applications and privacy. Therefore, this workshop will provide a timely opportunity to discuss the recent advances, new ideas, and concepts but also identify research gaps in geographic information extraction
CERNAS: Current Evolution and Research Novelty in Agricultural Sustainability
Climate changes pose overwhelming impacts on primary production and, consequently, on
agricultural and animal farming. Additionally, at present, agriculture still depends strongly on
fossil fuels both for energy and production factors ,such as synthetized inorganic fertilizers and
harmful chemicals such as pesticides. The need to feed the growing world population poses many
challenges. The need to reduce environmental impacts to a minimum, maintain healthy ecosystems,
and improve soil microbiota are central to ensuring a promising future for coming generations.
Livestock production under cover crop systems helps to alleviate compaction so that oxygen and
water can sufficiently flow in the soil, add organic matter, and help hold soil in place, reducing
crusting and protecting against erosion. The use of organic plant production practices allied to
the control of substances used in agriculture also decisively contributes to alleviating the pressure
on ecosystems. Some of the goals of this new decade are to use enhanced sustainable production
methodologies to improve the input/output ratios of primary production, reduce environmental
impacts, and rely on new innovative technologies.
This reprint addresses original studies and reviews focused on the current evolution and
research novelty in agricultural sustainability. New developments are discussed on issues related
to quality of soil, natural fertilizers, or the sustainable use of land and water. Also, crop protection
techniques are pivotal for sustainable food production under the challenges of the Sustainable
Development Goals of the United Nations, allied to innovative weed control methodologies as a
way to reduce the utilization of pesticides. The role of precision and smart agriculture is becoming
more pertinent as communication technologies improve at a rapid rate. Waste management, reuse of
agro-industrial residues, extension of shelf life, and use of new technologies are ways to reduce food
waste, all contributing to higher sustainability in food supply chains, leading to a more rational use
of natural resources. The unquestionable role of bees as pollinators and contributors to biodiversity
is adjacent to characterizing beekeeping activities, which in turn contributes, together with the
valorization of endemic varieties of plant foods, to the development of local communities. Finally,
the short circuits and local food markets have a decisive role in the preservation and enhancement of
rural economies.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Fundamentals
Volume 1 establishes the foundations of this new field. It goes through all the steps from data collection, their summary and clustering, to different aspects of resource-aware learning, i.e., hardware, memory, energy, and communication awareness. Machine learning methods are inspected with respect to resource requirements and how to enhance scalability on diverse computing architectures ranging from embedded systems to large computing clusters
