Copyright © 2013. This report and attached material cannot be published without the authors’ written acceptance PREFACE This Master Thesis was written during the 4rd semester as the conclusion of the M.Sc. Geoinformatics program at Aalborg University, and is rated at 30 ECTS points. The Master Thesis, from now on mentioned as the report, is one of two key elements of a project, the other being a geoinformatic system, also mentioned as the product or service with an Android application, as frontend. Use of the system is illustrated throughout the report and in addition three video examples have been produced: http://youtu.be/OKz84XqJtfo, http://youtu.be/cta5hbOAWuI and http://youtu.be/byhppB9JYKs. The project group who made the project consists of Mathias Kofoed Poulsen and Peter Christian von Westphal Thomsen. During the project period, the consulting firm Atkins, has provided guidance in the initial concept and used development technology of the Android application. Associate professor Thomas Balstrøm at University of Aalborg has been supervisor during the project period which ran from February 1st 2013 to June 13th 2013. The project group would like to thank Atkins for allowing us to use their office space while programming. Furthermore we would like to thank Sofie Gjedde-Simonsen, Daniel Ossipoff Jensen, Bente Kilhof, Barbara Joos, Erik Bach, Gitte Lundinge, Birgitte Foghmoes, Brian Worm Jensen, Bent Nielsen, Vagn Andersen, Anne Lise Thomsen, Morten Fuglsang and Thomas Balstrøm for their support and counselling during the project period. REPORT STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF RESEARCH The present report is divided into four stages, representing the stages that the project as a whole has gone through during the entire project period. These stages are inspired by (Larson and Gray 2011) and consist of a defining stage, a planning stage, an executing stage, and a closing stage. Figure 1 The flow between the four stages of the project. (Larson and Gray 2011) As it can be seen in Figure 1, the individual stages during the project period do not typically end completely before the next stage is started, but instead follow a pattern where the main focus in the project period changes to a new stage while the previous stage is still being finished. This natural flow in between the stages of the project period is difficult to capture in a report, and instead all elements belonging to one specific stage are sorted and presented before moving on to the next stage. By doing this, it is easier for the reader to understand the process that the project has gone through, but at the same time this means that the chapters presented are not necessarily in chronological order, compared to when the described processes were executed. The defining stage presents the research and considerations that went into specifying the focus area and problem statement of the project. Because much of the acquired information was not available in books or on websites, the collection of data and information for this stage was done primarily through interviews and mail correspondence with cemetery managers, culture centres and relevant authorities. These personal accounts are used to understand the use and limitations of existing solutions, which again are used to define the purpose of the project. The Planning stage explains how the project group prepared for the development of the product. This was done by researching on relevant theory for the project such as programming, usability tests as well as project management. Since this stage had a heavily theoretical approach, the majority of the sources here come from theoretical text books such as Project Management (Larson and Gray 2011), Interaction Design (Rogers, Sharp and Preece 2002), and Usability (Gregersen and Wisler-Poulsen 2009), in order to have the backbone of knowledge needed for the stages to come. The Executing stage documents how the product itself was built and evaluated, and how the researched theory was put into use for the development of the product. Because this stage focused on hands on developing and programming, it was difficult to find solutions to specific problems in text books, and instead internet forums for development such as stackoverflow.com, postgresql.org, and gis.stachexchange.com were used as primary sources. Here questions regarding development could be found to understand and solve issues. The Closing stage sums up on the project, and is used to answer questions asked during the process. Because of the nature of this stage, no additional information is provided, and as such no new sources are presented, but instead knowledge gathered through the three previous stages are used to evaluate on the project as a whole. SYSTEM DATA SOURCES In the developed system, data from different sources was used. The network in the system was built by using FOT data from the Danish Geodata Agency. In addition Aarhus and Copenhagen municipality were so kind to deliver burial plot data for their cemeteries. READING INSTRUCTIONS This section contains information of how references and specific definitions are used throughout the report. REFERENCES In this report, The Chicago Manual of Style edition 15 author/date citation style has been chosen as documentation system and the sources are cited as follows: ([author] [publishing year]) The cited sources are fully described in a list of references in the bibliography section. Not all figures have a reference, the ones without were created by the authors. Certain information like images or references to websites in general are in the in the text only mentioned by the internet address and are not shown in the bibliography section. The guideline given from Aalborg University, concerning plagiarism of making references if six or more contiguous words are used from a source is not followed in respect of code references. The reason for this is that certain functions in an Android application are only possible using multiple contiguous words, so only when several lines have been used a reference is given. All tables, diagrams and pictures are labelled as figures and are numbered continuously throughout the text. Appendixes are numbered continuously using letters. These elements are in the report referred to as follows: Figure: See Figure 1 Appendix: See Appendix A Examples of code are given several places throughout the report, the readability of these code snippets have been improved by the use of colour. Different languages and scripts have different notation, and the same way of colouring the code cannot be used for all. Notepad++'s use of colour coding different languages and scripts has been used in this report. DEFINITIONS Burial plot: Is the smallest identification unit the cemeteries use to identify a piece of land in the cemeteries. This can be a unit for a collection of graves for a whole family or just for a single person. Grave: Is the physical place where a person is buried. There are several places throughout the report where both words can be used to define the general area that is being referred to. In these cases the word grave will be used, as the main focus of this project is the position of individual graves and the persons buried at the specific locations.

  • City of Cyclist 2013.Pdf
    CITY OF CYCLISTS - Copenhagen bicycle life MONUMENTAL MOTION Upon visiting new cities we instinctively look upwards, seeking out grand monuments that define the place. Here in the Danish capital, the iconic Little Mermaid statue has caused generations of visitors to utter the same four words: “But she’s so small!” Therein lies the key to understanding Copenhagen. The Little Mermaid isn’t small, you see. She’s life-size. Much like the city that she calls home. If it’s monuments you’re after in Copenhagen, look all around you. Right there at street level. Our greatest monument is motion. It is a massive, constant, rhythmic and life-sized legacy. This never-ending flow of Copenhageners on bicycles has been forty years in the making. In the 1960s, this city was just as car-clogged as anywhere else. Visionary decisions were made and the result can be seen all around you. The vast network of safe, segregated bike lanes crisscrossing the city has encouraged us to choose the bicycle. The people who make up this organic monument are from all walks of life. From every age and wage bracket. We don’t have cyclists in Copen- hagen, we merely have people who happen to ride their bicycles. Cycling in Copenhagen brings us closer to the life of the city and the people who inhabit it. Your fellow citizens are right there next to you, propelling themselves effortlessly through the urban landscape. We are one with our town on our bicycles. 2 MONUMENTAL MOTION MODAL SHARE OF TRIPS IN 2012 HOW MUCH DO COPENHAGENERS CYCLE? 6% 11% 20% 26% 1.27 M 25% 36% 14% Cycled

TWO VISITS TO DENMARK TWO VISITS TO DENMARK 1872, 1874 BY EDMUND GOSSE LONDON SMITH, ELDER, & CO., 15 WATERLOO PLACE 1911 All rights reserved TO SIDNEY LOW PREFACE THIS little volume makes no pretence at being a record of adventure or a guide to the tourist. The author of it, as he hopes, has nowhere denned his own fugitive and unimportant silhouette, while endeavouring to paint emphatically the figures amongst whom, with so much emotion, he had the privilege of moving. Nor has he, in any instance, he believes, lingered to describe what the ordinary visitor may see under the competent guidance of a Baedeker. What he has tried to convey is an impression of the moral and intellec- tual aspect of one of the smallest, but one of the most cultivated countries of Europe, as he saw it nearly forty years ago. Where so many travellers give us a picture of sport or a succession of land- scapes, he has sought to present the portrait of a condition of national culture. That the painting had to be superficial is obvious, that it was made at first-hand is evident the author equally ; and cannot help hoping that the freshness of the impression may in some measure be held to weigh against its slightness.

  • Superkilen Copenhagen, Denmark
    2016 On Site Review Report by Azra Akšamija 4217.DEN Superkilen Copenhagen, Denmark Architect BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group, Superflex, TOPOTEK 1 Client Copenhagen Municipality Design 2009-2010 Completed 2012 Superkilen Copenhagen, Denmark I. Introduction Superkilen is a kilometre-long urban park located in the very heart of Nørrebro, the most culturally diverse and socially challenged neighbourhood of Copenhagen, Denmark. The project is a result of a public competition for the urban renewal of the area, which was initiated by the clients, the Municipality of Copenhagen and the philanthropic association Realdania. The design of Superkilen was developed as a joint effort by three teams: architectural office BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group, landscape architecture firm TOPOTEK 1 and the artist group SUPERFLEX, two of which are local to the neighbourhood. This transdisciplinary effort resulted in a unique design concept that translates historical themes of the pleasure garden and the amusement park into the contemporary and urban context of Copenhagen. The three formally very distinct zones – the Red Square, the Black Market and the Green Park – recreated the image of the neighbourhood quite literally, providing for a better connectivity and an increased sense of security within surrounding residential areas. For the furnishing of the park, local residents were invited to propose objects as an exhibition of best practices from all over the world. Given that the majority of local residents are of Muslim and/or Middle-Eastern background, Superkilen was not only designed for, but also with the input of, Muslims, in collaboration with the broader community. Today, the objects have taken on the role of both identity markers and cultural mediators, providing the residents with the sense of pride and ownership over the park.

  • Exploring Amsterdam by Tram
    Exploring Amsterdam by tram Trams are a convenient and simple way to get around Amsterdam. But even more than just a way to get from A to B, a tram ride can be a sightseeing tour in itself, taking in some of the city’s best sights and attractions along the way. There are three tram routes (1, 2 and 5) that travel up and down a central ‘spine’ of Amsterdam, from Centraal Station to Museumplein and back again. Tram #1, #2 and #5 Stop: Centraal Station As Amsterdam’s main transport hub, Centraal Station is a familiar starting point for most visitors to the city. The spectacular building opened its doors in 1889, and was designed by architect Pierre Cuypers, who also designed the Rijksmuseum. What to see and do: • Check out the vintage shops, hip cafes and arty design stores of vibrant Haarlemmerstraat to the west • Take the free ferry from behind Centraal Station to trendy Amsterdam Noord • Explore Oosterdok to the east of the station, making sure to take in the view of the city from NEMO’s rooftop terrace and stop for a drink at Hannekes Boom. From Centraal Station, the tram heads south down Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal, once the city’s defence line (‘burgwal’ means ‘bastion wall’). Stop: Nieuwezijds Kolk Continue south, passing behind the impressive Nieuwe Kerk on your left. Despite being called ‘New Church’, this imposing monument actually dates from the 15th century and is only ‘new’ in relation to the nearby Oude Kerk (old church) which was deemed too small to be the parish church of Amsterdam’s expanding population in 1408.
