Remote sensing using airborne and satellite sensors is an essential tool for rapidly investigating human traces over large surfaces of our planet, but even large monumental structures may be visible as only faint indications on the surface. In this paper, we demonstrate the utility of a machine learning approach using airborne laser scanning data to address a “needle-in-a-haystack” problem, which involves the search for remnants of Viking ring fortresses throughout Denmark. First ring detection was applied using the Hough circle transformations and template matching, which detected 202,048 circular features in Denmark. This was reduced to 199 candidate sites by using their geometric properties and the application of machine learning techniques to classify the cultural and topographic context of the features. Two of these near perfectly circular features are convincing candidates for Viking Age fortresses, and two are candidates for either glacial landscape features or simple meteor craters.

    NEWS RELEASES 1 Physical education in Poland in 2020 15.07.2021 In 2020, there were 14,245 sports clubs2 and 67 Polish sports associations operating in Poland. Compared to 2018, the number of sports clubs decreased by over 2,000. Compared to the previous year, the number of 14.3% registered coaches and Polish representatives Decrease in the number of peo- increased while the number of instructors and sports ple exercising in sports clubs judges remained at a similar level. compared to 2018 Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, from mid-March 2020 a complete prohibition in engaging in activities related to sports, entertainment and recreation (included in PKD 2007, section 93) was introduced, in particular involving, among others, on operating sport meeting places, clubs, swimming pools, gyms, fitness clubs. In the summer months, easing of restrictions was introduced, and thus this increased the possibility of activity of entities related to sports and easier access to sports facilities. The autumn increase in COVID-19 cases resulted in the intro- duction of further restrictions, e.g. sports facilities were closed again, excluding those that operated for people practicing sports as part of sports competitions, sports classes or sports events, and for students and students as part of classes at the university or at school. At the end of December 2020, the regulations were tightened again (e.g. the facilities could only be made available to members of the national team of Polish sports associations). Restrictions in running a business activity and in universal access to sports facilities contributed to the decline in the activity of sports clubs and physical culture organizations.

  • International Study Guide Series
    International Study Guide Series Denmark Montana 4-H Center for Youth Development, Montana State University Extension 1 MONTANA 4‐H INTERNATIONAL STUDY SERIES The 4‐H program has had an active role in Montana youth and volunteer development for almost 100 years. It is most well‐known for its local emphasis, but 4‐H does exist in a broader context ‐ from a local to an international level. The ultimate objective of 4‐H international and cross‐cultural programming is "peace through understanding." Extension Service efforts help young people achieve this overall goal by encouraging them to: realize the significance of global interdependency; develop positive cross‐cultural attitudes and skills that enhance understanding and acceptance of people from other ethnic, social, or economic backgrounds; appreciate for the similarities and differences among all people; assume global citizenship responsibilities; develop an understanding of the values and attitudes of Americans. Since the introduction of international 4‐H opportunities in 1948, the Montana 4‐H program has been committed to the goal of global awareness and increasing cross‐cultural understanding. Cultures are becoming more dependent upon one another for goods, services, food, and fiber. Montana's role in the international trade arena is ever‐growing. The acquisition of increased knowledge of the markets and the people who influence those markets is crucial to the residents of our state. The 4‐H international programs are coordinated by States’ 4‐H International Exchange Programs (S4‐H) for participating state 4‐H Youth Development programs. Funding for the exchange programs is provided on the state level by the Montana 4‐H Foundation through private donations and contributions.
