Geological mapping is a complicated and tedious professional task. Precise models are expected to be built with less time, more input and analysis of big data, a greater understanding of geological conditions, and frequent updates to be inline with current conditions.
China's Beidou satellite navigation system got a further push this week with news of a large RMB 5 billion (US$810 million) investment to build the 27-hectare Beidou Strategic Emerging Industrial Park in the city of Tianjin. The park will work to develop the use and application of the country's Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), into a world-leading market. The industral park is slated for between 30 and 50 companies developing products using Beidou's technology, with the first 20 companies moving there in June, with full operation by 2015.
Indonesia’s political stability has created a window of opportunity to reform the land sector. It is generally acknowledged that across Indonesia, land-tenure legislation struggles to be properly implemented, and most people gain access to land on the basis of local land-tenure systems and community-acknowledged traditions. These customary practices and systems, broadly described as adat, have been profoundly impacted by decades of colonial and post-independence government interventions and are continually burdened as a result of diverse factors such as cultural interactions, population growth, socio-economic changes, and political processes. Adat land systems are extremely diverse. This diversity is the result of a range of cultural, social, ecological, and economic factors in respective communities in the different regions of the country.
