Aerial mapping using high resolution digital camera and unmanned aerial vehicle for geographical information system

In aerial photogrammetry, aerial photographs are acquired using aerial camera and light aircraft as a platform. The aerial photographs are usually processed for mapping such as for production of topographic map and other special purpose map known as thematic map. However, this method is expensive and suitable for large area but it is not practical for mapping small area. This study concentrates on the use of high resolution digital camera and a very light platform known as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) as data acquisition system in capturing digital aerial photographs. The acquired digital aerial photographs were processed using image processing software to produce digital map and digital orthophoto. The results showed that an accuracy of sub-meter can be obtained using the employed method. In Geographical Information System (GIS), it is quite common that topographic map and orthophoto are used as a base map. Hence, the findings from this study could also be used as an input for GIS. Not to forget, the photogrammetric technique could be used not only for mapping but it could also be used for any environmental protection and conservation

Slowly Rotating Wormhole Solution

The ideas introduced by Einstein General Relativity theory toward thedevelopment of wormhole research field are reviewed namely, theconcept of spacetime, Riemarxrian geometry, cosmological constantand the pioneering work of Einstein and Rosen on the subject.Spherically symmetric spacetime metric that provides the wormholespacetime metric by the revival works of Morris and Thorne arediscussed. Concerning recent works on the subject a generalizedwormhole solution with cosmological constant introduced by the worksof Lemos, Lobo and Oliveira are also discussed. Finally, the rotatingwormhole solution as introduced by Khatsynovsky and Teo hasprovided a more generalized solution compared with the Morris-Thornestafic solution. Based on these ideas, we proposed the spacetime metricof a slowly rotating spherically s)rynmetric wormhole where weconstructed set ofEinstein equalions in term ofpressure and the energydensity of the wormhole.Keywords; General Relatfuity; Cosmological constant; Einstein-RosenBridge; Wormhol

Desain Model Perencanaan dan Penghantaran Proses Pembelajaran Berdaya Saing terhadap Penciptaan Pembelajaran Berbasis Mutu Tinggi Berkebelanjutan

Reformation programs of education should be directed to the importance of character education that involves the government and is directed through strategic plan of the National Education Department that accesses the needs and demands of the modern world and adapt to global conditions of the modern world. The purpose of this study was to determine; (1) models Lesson Planning Design, delivery of Learning and the creation of quality learning, (2) the magnitude design factors of significantly contribute learning plan on quality learning, and (3) the magnitude of factors on design of real contribute learning plan to create quality learning, also (4) whether strong or not of design of learning plan and quality learning process that contribute to create high quality learning. Methods in this study uses survey data collection techniques based on the Quetioner and interviews.The results show that generally the respondents give an assessment "yet / not good" for the design of learning plan. From the results, correlation between learning processes and the creation of high-quality learning obtain that r-count of 0.672 > r-table 0.138 (dk = 238). There is a significant relationship between learning plan design with the creation of high-quality learning. Likewise, there is significant influence between learning process with the creation of high-quality learning. SPSS.17 show R2 of 0.640, as an index of determination that contribute to variable of learning plan design and learning process to create high quality learning.R2 of 0.640 states that 64% of learning plan design influence the creation of high quality learning, while the remaining 36% (100% -64%) is influenced by other factors that can not be controlled in this study

Pengubahan Sikap Siswa SMA Muhammadiyah Bangkinang terhadap Bahaya Narkoba sebagai Efek Sosialisasi

The increase of dangerous drugs using cases, in Bangkinang affected the userdiscrete from the environment, family, society until country. The majority of dangerous drugsusers are adolescent in 11 until 19 years old. In the several time, a lot of adolescent useddangerous drugs because the minimum information that their gotten. There for, DWP, BNKand Polres Kampar held socialization in SMA Muhammadiyah Bangkinang to invite them foravoiding the drugs. The intention of this research is to know the socialization effect of thedangerous drugs to the student\u27s attitude of SMA Muhammadiyah Bangkinang.The researchdesign used kuantitative research by descriptive method. The account of sampel is 70people from 193 population. The sampel is decided from Quota Sampling technique, analyzemethod in this research used a formula P=F/N × 100%. The result of this research showsthat the socialization effect of dangerous drugs to the student\u27s attitude SMA MuhammadiyahBangkinang can be categoried good with the precentage is 95,09% and the socialization washeld by DWP, BNK and Polres Kampar to SMA Muhammadiyah Bangkinang was succesfull

The Analysis of Effects of Voluntary Disclosure to the Relationship Between Corporate Governance and Earnings Management

This study is aimed at examining the relationshipbetween corporate governance mechanisms andearnings management with voluntary disclosure(voluntary disclosure) as a moderating variable.Corporate governance is proxied and measured byManagerial Ownership (MGR) Institutional Ownership(INST), board size (BSIZE), and the independentCommissioner (KI). Voluntary Disclosure of EarningsManagement proxied in this study uses the value ofdiscretionary accruals, and Voluntary Disclosure isproxied by the disclosure index. The population of thisstudy is all listed manufacturing companies in IndonesiaStock Exchange from 2006 to 2011.The results of this study are first, there is an empiricalevidence to suggest that there are negative effects ofdiscretionary accruals managerial ownership,institutional ownership and a positive influence on thesize of the board of directors. Overall, these results areconsistent with research conducted by Pranata (2003)and Rajgopal (1998) that managerial ownership andinstitutional ownership become a constraint on earningsmanagement practice. Second, testing the relationshipbetween voluntary disclosure mechanism betweencorporate governance and discretionary accruals indicatethat the earnings management practices will be carriedout if the company is getting a lot of information. Theseresults are consistent with the research conducted byAryati (2003). Third, the composition of theindependent commissioner was not statisticallysignificant to the earnings management measures, andvoluntary testing of these revelations on the relationshipbetween the practice of earnings management andcorporate governance mechanisms remains to show thatthe composition of an independent commissioner is notsignificant. This gives evidence that the ineffectivenessof the company's independent commissioner
