This paper addresses the issue from the point of view of digital technologies, in particular interoperable digital platforms for the storage, processing and visualization of open and interoperable data available in different formats (3D models, images, texts, etc.) and collected from different sources (traditional archives, digital libraries, real-time content, IoT, sensors, social networks, etc.). The comparison among three projects with different focuses – the H2020 INCEPTION project (Inclusive Cultural Heritage in Europe through 3D semantic Modelling – G.A. No. 665220), the H2020 ROCK project (Regeneration and Optimization of Cultural heritage in creative and Knowledge – G.A. No. 730280) and the Italian national project PON PNR IDEHA (Innovation for Data Elaboration in Heritage Areas – No. ARS01_00421) – shows possible strategies led by the knowledge of data usage models and information databases, focused on the common goal of improving accessibility, knowledge, enhancement and conservation of cultural heritage. The results show how information management through open and interoperable platforms represents a useful decision and monitoring support system related to cultural heritage: further, the provision of data and digital sources to different users, the use of this tool can create collaborative networks between all stakeholders involved at various levels and to allow new potential knowledge scenarios.","PeriodicalId":354681,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Development and Planning XI","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121398848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"TOWARDS THE CREATION OF A DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM TOOL FOR THE PRELIMINARY RISK ASSESSMENT OF BROWNFIELD SITES","authors":"C. Mahammedi, L. Mahdjoubi, C. Booth, T. Butt","doi":"10.2495/sdp200211","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2495/sdp200211","url":null,"abstract":"Brownfield sites always raise concern for the health and safety of site workers involved in site renovations and developments and, subsequently, for the residents or occupants of the sites. As a minimum, a preliminary risk assessment is necessary to determine whether a brownfield site is contaminated and, if so, ensuring any redevelopment is safe and suitable for its proposed use. Despite growing interest in the progression of risk assessment tools, there are limited instruments available for brownfield site assessors to consult when conducting investigations at the preliminary risk assessment stage. This study presents a conceptual framework that ultimately aims to create a web-based decision support system (DSS) for the preliminary risk assessment of brownfield sites. This is based on a pollutant linkage model (Source–Pathway–Receptor). The proposed framework aids the identification of health and safety hazards and, in doing so, it addresses the challenges facing those persons dealing with the decision-making on brownfield site developments. Moreover, the framework enables them to determine the most appropriate remediation strategy(ies) to halt pollutant linkages, promote safer developments and minimise the risks to future occupants of brownfield sites and neighbouring lands.","PeriodicalId":354681,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Development and Planning XI","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132919977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chiefly, the massive coastal construction which overloads the seas and shores and damages one of the most important natural resources. Hence, in order to allow development with minimum environmental harm, the concept of sustainability was formed. Various sustainable environmental plans and policies were established, however a “one-size-fits-all” plan is impossible due to the intricate and dynamic nature of the coastal environment worldwide. Diverse activities, interests and problems require different management strategies that are unique to countries, regions and, ultimately, a local scale. This paper analyzes the tension between international environmental legislation and their local implementation, while offering an initial glocalized coastal zone management model that takes all these aspects into consideration. Notably, this study proclaims that mankind can enjoy the natural resource without overusing it, as long as the coastline management embraces a holistic viewpoint that will combine all the forces working at hand, while being adjusted and localized to the Israeli setting.","PeriodicalId":354681,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Development and Planning XI","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134421308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
