No full textReligious heritage in Italy: websites and geolocalization. A new appraisal
Get PDFAl giorno d’oggi la creazione, l’archiviazione, l’accessibilità, interoperabilità
dei dati sul web sono sempre più pervasive. Sul web vengono
pubblicate diverse tipologie di basi di dati e/o geo-database - e
altre forme di informazioni fornite dalla rete – che affrontano vari
argomenti (scienza, medicina, trasporti, turismo ...) e sulla base di diverse
architetture. Tali banche dati possono essere private o pubbliche,
con accesso gratuito o a pagamento. In ogni caso l’argomento
dati è un campo continuo di riflessioni (Capineri, 2015). Un database
di dimensioni significative è quello della Chiesa cattolica italiana. Si
tratta di un inventario dei beni mobili o immobili su tutto il territorio
italiano. Chiunque può avere interesse a questo tipo di informazioni
(ad esempio istituzioni e singole persone).
Questo contributo si propone di trattare l’informazione geografica
concentrandosi sui siti religiosi in un periodo in cui il turismo religioso
è considerato come una risorsa importante per l’industria del
turismo, per lo sviluppo regionale/locale e non solo (Rizzo, 2016).
Siti web con basi di dati sul patrimonio religioso saranno oggetto di
indagine al fine di capire come collegare i dati religiosi (ad esempio
chiese, monasteri, luoghi di pellegrinaggio, santuari ...) con informazioni
geografiche e spaziali. Le suddivisioni religiose sono diverse da
quelle secolari: in Italia, ad esempio, le diocesi hanno confini diversi
rispetto alle province italiane, così come le regioni ecclesiastiche
sono diverse da quelle amministrative. Nell’era dei big data, come viene presentato il patrimonio religioso
nelle sue diverse tipologie? Qual è il livello di fruibilità delle piattaforme
da parte degli utenti del web? Come si può interagire con
esse? Come si possono costruire itinerari per raggiungere i punti di
interesse e come si possono collegare più punti?Nowadays the creation, storage, accessibility, and interoperability
of data on the internet are more and more pervasive. Many different
kinds of databases and/or geo-databases are published on the internet,
along with other forms of information that deal with various
topics (e.g. science, medicine, transport and tourism), based on different
architectures. These websites can be private or public, and with or
without free access. However, the reflection is ongoing on these data
(Capineri, 2015). A significantly-sized database is that of the Italian
Catholic Church. It concerns an inventory of its movable or immovable
property throughout the entire Italian territory. Anyone could be
interested in accessing this kind of information (e.g. institutions and
individuals).
This contribution intends to deal with geographical information focusing
on the religious sites in a period in which religious tourism is
considered a significant asset for the tourism industry, for regional/
local development, and more (Rizzo L.S., 2016). Databases about religious
heritage are investigated in order to understand how they link
religious data (e.g. churches, monasteries, sites of pilgrimage, sanctuaries)
with geographical and spatial information. Religious subdivisions
are different from secular ones: in Italy, for example, dioceses
have different boundaries than the Italian provinces, and ecclesiastical
regions sometimes differ from administrative regions.
In the era of “big data” how are religious heritage and routes created
and represented? What is the level of usability by the website users?
How can they interact with such websites? Is creating itineraries to
reach POIs easy? Is linkng various POIs feasable

Three-dimensional survey techniques and hydrogeological risk: network sharing of high resolution LiDAR data Case study in the Veneto region.
No full text3D surveying techniques dealing with high density measurement (i.e. through airborne LiDAR by TLS - Terrestrial Laser Scanner - or by mobile mapping) allow to survey and observe the territory with accuracy, a particular resolution and richness of details extremely high compared to traditional survey approaches. These technologies, due to the size of raw data, not allow the sharing and the direct reading of 3D data by different users. Usually, the data are put into standard formats (digital terrain model, contour lines, etc.) to be shared. The raw data (with all the associated contents) are, on the other hand, generally lost or saved in formats and devices (hard disks or DVD) that doesn't make it available to the costumer. An application of a technology developed by the University of Brescia (together with the spin-off Gexcel srl) is presented. This application allows the sharing and visualization of these data by web. The difficulty of implementing the sharing technologies of LiDAR data lies in the transfer of 3D surveyed data, even if only to display them. This research intends to propose a new way of data managing/transmission, also by internet, enabling to store 3D LiDAR data in a single file and to add different layers on this model. In particular, the research shows how in a file - on a remote server - it is possible to store 3D multi-resolution data about landslides of the Veneto Region. These 3D data (enriched by different layers) can be visualized, downloaded, queried and shared via web. It also shows how it can be displayed on 3D model, information levels from GIS that analyze data of hydrological risk. The research proposes a first application of LiDAR data web sharing applied to studies of hydrological disasters of the Veneto Region. This is intended as an example of a useful technology to support all the activities for rapid decisions

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
