Offshore windfarm siting in Greece using GIS and TOPSIS
SPYRIDONIDOU S., (Corresponding) VAGIONA D.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
The deployment of offshore wind power technologies is becoming increasingly important towards the sustainable development of regions. In Greece, wind energy is provided at the time being, only by onshore plants and the interest in investigating the top choices for offshore wind applications in...Read more
Dynamic heat map as a part of the regional energy transition
Wern B., (Corresponding) Noll F., (Corresponding) Baur F.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
Heat maps show the heat and cold demand of residential, commercial and industrial buildings as well as the waste heat from industry. They combine these two aspects in order to plan new heating/cooling grids. By planning the thermal energy supply in a central way, the efficiency of the energy...Read more

Deciphering Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI) for the coastal areas of Rhodes Island and the possible impact on tourism
(Corresponding) Vandarakis D., Loukaidi V., Kyriakou K., Kyriakidou C., Gad F., Sourianos E., Kapsimalis V., Drakopoulou P., Kikaki A., Hatiris G., (Corresponding) Panagiotopoulos I., Chatzinaki M., Morfis I., Sioulas A.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
Rhodes Island, located in the southeastern Aegean Archipelagos. Coastal areas, extended sandy beaches, people’s hospitality, and adequate infrastructure are principal factors that have increased the touristic value of the island. The estimation of the Coastal Vulnerability Index is important, since...Read more

Sustainable landscapes: restoration and land use planning in an adaptive approach to climate change and desertification. Case study of Inter-Andean Valley of Cauca River in Colombia
(Corresponding) Alvarado-Solano D., Otero J., Šarapatka B.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
The inter-Andean valley of Cauca River (IVCR) is one of the most industrialized regions in Colombia leading its seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) to a fragmented and degraded state. Changes in land cover may alter the climatic and hydrological patterns. In the period 1984 – 2014, 26% of natural...Read more
The need for setting optimal geographical and temporal boundaries for infrastructure project design and EIA, and how science and technology can help
Venables R.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
All infrastructure projects generate significant effects on the environment and their surrounding communities, but to varying degrees depending on their nature, scale and context. The environmental Impact assessment process, despite its title, attempts to assess the social effects of projects...Read more
The contribution of the cadaster to the protection of urban forests. The case study of Seich Sou.
(Corresponding) Vordoglou M., Samara T., Tsitsoni T.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
This paper studies the way in which modern land-forest map design contributes to the protection of urban forests generally and the Seich Sou urban forest of Thessaloniki in particular. We also examine the role of cadaster and forest maps in protecting urban forests from abuses such as pressure for...Read more

Site selection of hybrid solar/wind renewable energy systems: A case study from Andros, Greece
Bili A., (Corresponding) Vagiona D.
Topic:
Spatial environmental planning
The combination of two or more forms of Renewable Energy Sources at the same spatial scale is a highly promising sector, resulting in an increase in the number of installations of hybrid RES systems. In Greece, where abundant resources such as wind and sun are available, the combination of these...Read more
