This paper investigates the characteristics of functionally derelict areas in Slovenia, criteria for their identification, typology and arguments for further monitoring, and regular updating of this ...new spatial and data layer. Both specifying the precise location and knowledge of characteristics of derelict areas, i.e. brownfields, are an important step towards sustainable planning and placement of activities. In 2017, we recorded 1081 functionally derelict areas in Slovenia in a total area of 3423 ha, with a prevalence of areas of industrial activities.
One of the key issues in the planning, construction and management of public service infrastructure is financing such infrastructure and ensuring its long-term reliability. For this purpose, it is ...necessary to establish effective asset management tools. The basis for the creation of such tools is relevant registers. In Slovenia, the technical register and fixed assets register of public service infrastructure both represent the same subject from different points of view, but they are usually not interconnected. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of both registers in 13 local communities in Slovenia were used to develop a decision model for the integration of the fixed assets register and the technical register of public service infrastructure. The proposed decision model will offer local communities one possible approach for connecting the technical register and fixed assets register of public service infrastructure. This will be the first step towards the establishment of effective asset management tools for managing public service infrastructure.
SI: Iz sedanje sestave katastra stavb v Sloveniji je razvidno, da se že pojavlja potreba po dopolnitvi evidence o stavbah. Za zdaj na podlagi podatkov katastra stavb ne moremo izdelati popolnega ...3D-prikaza stavbe, s tem pa ne dobimo prave predstave o stanju na terenu. Z meritvami, ki jih že sedaj opravljamo geodeti, in morda z nekaj dodatno posnetimi točkami pa se že da izdelati kakovosten 3D-model stavbe. Imamo že izkušnje s področja izdelave 3D-geodetskih posnetkov. Poskusimo poskrbeti še za združitev katastra stavb z zemljiškim katastrom in ju začnmimo uporabljati vzajemno. Zavedati se moramo, da ne živimo več v papirnati dobi in je računalnik postal del našega vsakdanjika. Zato je še kako pomembna tudi višinska komponenta, ki nam zelo olajša orientacijo v prostoru. Sedanja evidenca stavb je bila nedvomno zasnovana kot dobrodošla pomoč pri razumevanju prostora, toda ne pozabimo, da razvoja ni mogoče zajeziti, da je treba spodbuditi razpravo in podpreti razvojne projekte za nadgradnjo. Preprosto se ne smemo zadovoljiti samo z 2D-prostorskimi podatki in nekaj višinami. V članku je podan pregled mednarodnih trendov in možnosti v Sloveniji na področju razvoja 3D-katastra. EN: Concerning the actual structure of the building cadastre in Slovenia, a need to complement our database of buildings is appearing. For now, the information of the building cadastre is not sufficient for the creation of a complete 3D view of a building,which gives us an imperfect image of the condition on the field. With the measurements already being done by the land surveyors, and with a few additional points marked, a high grade 3D model of buildings can be designed. We already have experience with 3D geodeticplans. We should try to combine the building cadastre and land cadastre, and begin to make mutual use of both of them. A change of thinking, i.e. that we do not live in an era of paper, but with computers being part of our everyday life, is necessary. That is why the height component is of great importance, which makes orientation in space much easier. There is no doubt that the present database of buildings was meant as a needed help in understanding space. However, we must not forget that development cannot be stopped and further debate has to be stimulated as developmental projects for the upgrading of the database also have to be supported. Clearly, we must not be satisfied solely with 2D information and some height data. Thispaper gives an overview about international trends and possibilities in Slovenia in the field of 3D cadastre.
The Cadastre of Public Infrastructure is a new record set up at the national level, where the objects of all public infrastructures are collected. The basic purpose of this record is to provide ...information on the space used by public infrastructure, which will in the future contribute to more reasonable spatial planning and safe execution of spatial activities. Data-based, processbased and organisation models of the Cadastre of Public Infrastructure and application of public infrastructure data in everyday use are represented in the article.
The article deals with the questions of a systematic and practical nature in terms of setting-up and maintaining the cadastre of public infrastructure facilities as well as the significance of the ...register for the surveying profession. The previous and new legislations are analysed, discussing the area of the cadastre of municipal facilities, graphic illustration of municipal facilities and the cadastre of infrastructure facilities, respectively. Further on, the legislation is discussed, which regulates different infrastructural networks and ownership, the role and significance of the cadastre of public infrastructure facilities as well as official registers and linkage to other real estate registers. In the conclusion, the author lists the tasks that need to be performed by the line ministry, geodetic service and profession, in order to fulfil the obligations at the national level in the area of expertise.

The rapid growth in the use of mobile phone applications (apps) provides the opportunity to increase access to evidence-based mental health care.
Our goal was to systematically review the research ...evidence supporting the efficacy of mental health apps for mobile devices (such as smartphones and tablets) for all ages.
A comprehensive literature search (2008-2013) in MEDLINE, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PsycINFO, PsycTESTS, Compendex, and Inspec was conducted. We included trials that examined the effects of mental health apps (for depression, anxiety, substance use, sleep disturbances, suicidal behavior, self-harm, psychotic disorders, eating disorders, stress, and gambling) delivered on mobile devices with a pre- to posttest design or compared with a control group. The control group could consist of wait list, treatment-as-usual, or another recognized treatment.
In total, 5464 abstracts were identified. Of those, 8 papers describing 5 apps targeting depression, anxiety, and substance abuse met the inclusion criteria. Four apps provided support from a mental health professional. Results showed significant reductions in depression, stress, and substance use. Within-group and between-group intention-to-treat effect sizes ranged from 0.29-2.28 and 0.01-0.48 at posttest and follow-up, respectively.
Mental health apps have the potential to be effective and may significantly improve treatment accessibility. However, the majority of apps that are currently available lack scientific evidence about their efficacy. The public needs to be educated on how to identify the few evidence-based mental health apps available in the public domain to date. Further rigorous research is required to develop and test evidence-based programs. Given the small number of studies and participants included in this review, the high risk of bias, and unknown efficacy of long-term follow-up, current findings should be interpreted with caution, pending replication. Two of the 5 evidence-based mental health apps are currently commercially available in app stores.
El artículo explora el significado del escándalo en la práctica sacramental. La tradición moral y canónica y la sistemática codicial ofrecen pruebas significativas de la influencia del concepto; sin ...embargo, deben enfrentarse a la ofuscación y la desviación en la mentalidad posmoderna. Descifrar los elementos constitutivos del scandalum pone de relieve la conexión intrínseca del daño social con la justicia, la objetividad del prejuicio y la influencia performativa de la conducta desviada. En el ámbito sacramental, la defensa de la conciencia y de la rectitud de los agentes viene impuesta por la propia sacralidad de la acción, promoviendo la participación plena, activa y consciente de todos. Por el contrario, la pérdida del influjo comunitario y solidario de la liturgia conduce a un protagonismo solipsista de los fieles y a una indebida privatización del culto. La continuidad y coherencia entre doctrina, disciplina y práctica parece ser la garantía más segura y fiable del patrimonio celebrativo y del bonum agere pastorale.
El desafio de la busqueda de las personas victimas de desaparicion forzada comprende usualmente el de la recuperacion de la identidad de los restos que logran ser hallados. Este trabajo releva la ...dimension juridica de la identificacion y su calidad de decision acerca de la prueba de un hecho, que puede ser analizada con las herramientas conceptuales de la teoria de la prueba juridica. Sobre esa base, se aborda la pregunta sobre el estandar de prueba aplicable y se ofrece un analisis basado en la experiencia chilena reciente, en la que se ha tendido a consolidar la prueba positiva de ADN como una suerte de golden standard, exclusivo y excluyente, para la identificacion. A menudo, sin embargo, ese resultado no se puede alcanzar por deterioro del ADN en las muestras de restos obtenidos, por la escasez de las muestras dada la practica de exhumaciones clandestinas o por falta de muestras de parientes para comparacion. El trabajo explora las preguntas que se abren entonces, tanto respecto de la posibilidad de que otra clase de pruebas forenses sean aceptables y suficientes como sobre el trato que se debe dar a los restos cuya identificacion no resulta actualmente posible.
Despite widespread scientific and popular interest in mindfulness-based interventions, questions regarding the empirical status of these treatments remain. We sought to examine the efficacy of ...mindfulness-based interventions for clinical populations on disorder-specific symptoms. To address the question of relative efficacy, we coded the strength of the comparison group into five categories: no treatment, minimal treatment, non-specific active control, specific active control, and evidence-based treatment. A total of 142 non-overlapping samples and 12,005 participants were included. At post-treatment, mindfulness-based interventions were superior to no treatment (d=0.55), minimal treatment (d=0.37), non-specific active controls (d=0.35), and specific active controls (d=0.23). Mindfulness conditions did not differ from evidence-based treatments (d=−0.004). At follow-up, mindfulness-based interventions were superior to no treatment conditions (d=0.50), non-specific active controls (d=0.52), and specific active controls (d=0.29). Mindfulness conditions did not differ from minimal treatment conditions (d=0.38) and evidence-based treatments (d=0.09). Effects on specific disorder subgroups showed the most consistent evidence in support of mindfulness for depression, pain conditions, smoking, and addictive disorders. Results support the notion that mindfulness-based interventions hold promise as evidence-based treatments.
