  • Georgia's Scenic Byways Program
    IDENTIFYING VALUED SCENES AND SETTINGS IN AN ORDINARY LANDSCAPE Brian Orland, Professor of Geodesign, University of Georgia1 Micah S. Taylor, Ph.D. student, College of Environment and Design, University of Georgia Tara J. Mazurczyk, Ph.D. student, Department of Geography, The Pennsylvania State University Lacey K. Goldberg, Ph.D. student, Department of Landscape Architecture, The Pennsylvania State University Meredith Welch-Devine, Director, Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs, University of Georgia Timothy M. Murtha, Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture and Latin American Studies, University of Florida Abstract.—The Georgia Scenic Byways program is a “grassroots effort … to identify, preserve, promote, and protect treasured corridors throughout the state” (Georgia Department of Transportation 2013, p. 32). To date, the Georgia Department of Transportation has designated 15 Scenic Byways. This paper presents a model “valued landscape detector,” a smartphone application that uses social media and augmented reality mechanisms to engage interested citizens in evaluating the scenic value of highways (or stretches of highways). Citizen data collectors, guided by GIS via their smartphones, are invited to provide in situ evaluations and upload photos and geolocation data for the Georgia Scenic Byways designation program. Another goal of the project is to identify currently undesignated stretches of highway that may be candidates for future State designation. Beyond the current application, the method may be useful for identifying a wide array of cultural and natural resources that might otherwise be overlooked. BACKGROUND Over the last few decades, scholars and Federal land agencies have developed systematic ways of This paper presents a model for scenic highway evaluating landscape scenic quality. The approaches designation that is citizen driven and grassroots in have generally fallen into two categories.

LATEST FEATURE STORY NREL One of the side benefits of the smartphone generation is that there is lots of interest in making new and better sensors. The current generation of smartphones comes equipped with accelerometers, gyroscopes, proximity sensors, and light sensors. Thanks to these, your smartphone knows its orientation, its motion, when it's in the dark, and when you put it to your face. It's a compass, a level, a FEATURE STORY (2 PAGES) location beacon, a pedometer, and much, much, more. We're told that wearable devices are the next big thing. These devices will be packed with even more sensors.

Johnson - June 23 2013, 5:00pm EDT EARTH SCIENCE ENERGY 52 Last October, Ars published an update to a US EPA investigation linking natural gas production to groundwater contamination in Wyoming. On Thursday, the EPA announced that it will step back from the investigation, ceding leadership to the State of Wyoming. The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality and the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission will further investigate groundwater conditions around Pavillion with support from the EPA, according to the press release. The scope of the investigation will be more limited, however. It'll now focus on a select number of private wells rather than larger questions about the possibility of gas production and hydraulic fracking impacts in shallow and deep groundwater. The State plans to TOP FEATURE STORY additionally sample fourteen water supply wells, analyze existing data on the cement seals in gas production wells within a quarter mile of those water wells, and search for records of previous wastewater pits used to hold fracking fluid in that area. The results are scheduled to be finalized and released in September 2014. Some of that work will be paid for with funds from a $1.5 million grant that Encana, the gas exploration FEATURE STORY (2 PAGES) company operating in Pavillion, is giving to the Wyoming Natural Resource Foundation.
