The social impact of a flood on workers at a Pretoria hotel / E. Milella

Milella, Elisabetta January 2012 (has links)
In South Africa, January 2011 was characterised by above average rainfall which resulted in many provinces being flooded. On the 17th of January 2011, the government of South Africa declared the City of Tshwane a National Disaster Area. It is in the city of Tshwane where a hotel was flooded causing great damage and disruption to the lives of the hotel workers. Given the lack of existing research focusing on the social dimensions of natural disasters, this provided an opportunity to study the social impact of the flood on the community of hotel workers at a Pretoria hotel. Four sub-aims were set for the study, which involved an exploration of the strengths that were exhibited, discovered or developed as a result of the flood; investigating the subjective experiences in relation to the flood; exploring the interactional patterns and relationships of the hotel workers; as well as investigating how the leadership of the hotel impacted on the manner in which the hotel workers dealt with the flood. A qualitative methodology, guided by a social constructivist epistemology was adopted as basis for the study. Data was gathered by means of individual semi-structured interviews, semi-structured questionnaires, and a focus group interview with a number of employees at the hotel. The data was subjected to qualitative content and grounded theoretical analysis. Five main themes emerged from the analysis, which include: Emotional responses, which included negative emotions such as shock, fear, frustration and anger, as well as positive emotions such as happiness and appreciation; a variety of interactional patterns and relationships; increased cohesiveness; enhanced leadership, and the development of group resilience. / MA, Medical Sociology, North-West University, Vaal Triangle Campus, 2012

Ολοκληρωμένο σύστημα απεικόνισης κινδύνων πλημμυρών / Complete system depiction of dangerous floods

Νάκος, Βασίλειος 19 April 2010 (has links)
Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία υλοποιήθηκε ένα ολοκληρωμένο σύστημα απεικόνισης κινδύνων πλημμυρών για τον ποταμό Ευρώτα. Η εργασία χωρίζεται σε δύο ενότητες: την Ενότητα 1, Θεωρητικό Πλαίσιο και την Ενότητα 2, Υλοποίηση. Στην Ενότητα 1 αρχικά παρουσιάζονται κάποια εισαγωγικά στοιχεία. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, δίνεται ο ορισμός της πλημμύρας και των αιτίων που την προκαλούν. Στην συνέχεια γίνεται μία αναφορά σε διαχρονικά προβλήματα και στις έννοιες του κινδύνου και της κρίσης, καθώς επίσης στους τρόπους αντιμετώπισης τους από τους αρμόδιους φορείς. Έπειτα γίνεται μία αναφορά στις σύγχρονες ανάγκες. Συνεχίζουμε με την ανάλυση των αισθητήρων που χρησιμοποιούνται στο ποταμό και πως αξιοποιείται το σύστημα λήψης αποφάσεων. Επίσης αναλύουμε τα γεωγραφικά πληροφοριακά συστήματα, τις αρχιτεκτονικές τους , τον τρόπο ανάπτυξη τους καθώς επίσης και την ανάγκη ύπαρξης τους στο διαδίκτυο. Λίγο πριν τελειώσουμε κάνουμε μία αναφορά στις τεχνολογίες που χρησιμοποιούμε και παραθέτουμε και μερικά στατιστικά στοιχεία .Τέλος δίνουμε μερικά παραδείγματα παρόμοιων έργων και των κυριοτέρων υπηρεσιών που προσφέρουν Στην Ενότητα 2 περιγράφεται η δικτυακή πύλη που υλοποιήθηκε, πληρώντας όλες τις προϋποθέσεις που έχουν τεθεί από την Ενότητα 1. Πιο συγκεκριμένα γίνεται αναφορά στις δικτυακές υπηρεσίες που αναπτύχθηκαν, τον τρόπο που λειτουργούν καθώς επίσης και μερικές φορές επεξηγούνται κάποια σημαντικά κομμάτια κώδικα. / This Diploma Dissertation presents a complete system depiction of dangerous floods for the river Eurotas. The dissertation is separated in two units. In Unit 1 initially are represented certain introductive elements such as the definition and the causes of flood, the use of sensors, the decision support system. Also, we analyze Geographic Information Systems (GIS), their architectures as well as their need of existence in the internet. Finally, we finish with a report in the technologies that we use and mention certain statistical elements. In Unit 2, the network gate that was materialised, filling the conditions that have been placed by Unit 1, is described. Particularly, we give a report in the network services that were developed, the way that they function as well as explanation of certain important code.
