Public libraries play a vital role in providing information, education, and cultural activities to local populations. Digitization and the Internet have changed the traditional functions of public ...libraries and caused them to become more community-centered and offer more diverse services. Agent-based geographical modeling is a method for simulating complex urban environments using heuristic and approximated algorithms. The agent model for public libraries developed for this study demonstrates the possibilities for analyzing accessibility, exploring demographic data of potential users, finding underserved areas, and searching for the best locations or relocation sites for libraries. This model has been implemented and tested using the entire public library network of Slovenia. Results suggest that agent-based geographical modeling is a promising method for research in the field of library and information science.
•Agent based geographical modeling (ABGM) is a promising research method in the field of library and information science.•ABGM is a heuristic method for the analysis of the accessibility when exploring demographic data of potential users.•ABGM supports the identification of underserved areas and searching for the best (re)locations sites for libraries.•ABGM results deepen the knowledge of potential library users.•Library administrators can use ABGM results in everyday decision-making and planning of the public library network.
The proposed model is a computer aided system for evaluating the value of spatial sites of properties, both present as well as simulations of future conditions following hypothetical directions of ...development, strategic or concrete spatial decisions. The model is built on classical methods of mass appraisal of property, which are supported by a geographical information model. It introduces significant novelties in the field: the use of methods of analytical hierarchical processing for determining technical coefficients of site advantages. The model was developed in the research Development and implementation of a regional simulation model for the Ljubljana urban region, financed by the City municipality of Ljubljana.
Predlog modela je računalniško podprt sistem za ocenjevanje vrednosti prostorske lokacije nepremičnin, tako zdajšnjih razmerij kot tudi simuliranje prihodnjih na osnovi domnevnih smeri razvoja, ...strateških ali konkretnih prostorskih odločitev. Model izhaja iz klasičnih metod množičnega vrednotenja nepremičnin, podprtega z geografskim informacijskim modelom. Uvaja pa precejšnjo novost na tem področju: uporabo metode analitičnega hierarhičnega procesiranja za določitev tehničnih koeficientov ugodnosti lokacije. Model je bil razvit v raziskavi Razvoj in implementacija regionalnega simulacijskega modela za ljubljansko urbano regijo, ki jo je financirala Mestna občina Ljubljana.

Informacijska in telekomunikacijske tehnologije čedalje bolj vplivajo na življenje in delo. Predvidevajo, da bo v naslednjih petih letih kar 80 % vsega poslovanja elektronskega, tako imenovanega ...e-poslovanja (»e-business«). Zadnje čase se že celo pri nas govori o »e-vladanju«. Usmerjali, želeli ali pa ne, virtualna omrežja spreminjajo urbane sisteme v e-urbane sisteme. Koliko bo to v dobro ljudem je odvisno tudi od načrtovalcev prostora. V prispevku so z predznakom »e« razloženi pojmi kot so urbani sistemi, posameznikov vsakdan, nepremičnine in simulacije.

Information and tele-communication technology are increasingly affecting life and employment. According to predictions, more than 80% of all business operations will be carried out electronically ...through so called e-business. Recently even in Slovenia discussions have begun on “e-government”. Despite desired or undesired control, virtual networks are changing urban systems into e-urban systems. The extent of benefits to the public also depend on planners. The article presents concepts with the signature “e” to describe urban systems, day-to-day life, real-estate and simulation.
Prispevek na kratko opisuje štiri produkte podprojekta Geoinformacijska podpora planiranju in urejanju prostora na ravni lokalne skupnosti v okviru projekta ONIX. Produkti so rezultat celovitega ...pristopa k razvoju informacijske podpore, ki ga karakterizira enovita obravnava prostorskih aktov od prostorskega plana, izvedbenih aktov do postopkov lokacije, multidisciplinarni pristop in objektno usmerjeni informacijski pristop.
The article gives a brief description of four products in the subproject Geoinformation support for physical planning and spatial management on the local level in the framework of the Onix project. ...The products are a result of a comprehensive approach to the development of information support, whose main features are unified dealing with planning acts, from the statutory plan and development plans to permitting procedures, multi-disciplinary approach and object oriented information approach.
Cilj projekta je podpreti razvoj, vzpostavitev, vzdrževanje in uporabo prostorskih podatkovnih baz v postopkih planiranja in urejanja prostora na lokalni ravni. Projekt je sestavni del slovenskega ...okoljskega projekta Onix. Tekoča faza je faza implementacije.
The project objective is to strengthen the development, establishment, maintenance and use of the geographical data bases in the processes of physical planning and urban management on local level. It ...is a part of the Slovenian environmental project Onix. The current state is the phase of implementation.
