In 1998 EEA published Guidelines for the implementation of the EUROWATERNET monitoring network for inland waters. In every Member Country a monitoring network should be designed according to these Guidelines and put into operation. Together these national networks will form the EUROWATERNET monitoring network that will provide information on the quantity and quality of European inland waters. In the future they will be developed to meet the requirements of the EU Water Framework Directive. This publication presents the Finnish EUROWATERNET monitoring network put into operation from the first of January, 2000. It includes a total of 195 river sites, 253 lake sites and 74 hydrological baseline sites. Groundwater monitoring network will be developed later. In addition, information about Finnish water resources and current monitoring strategies is given.

Automatic Measurement of Rf Signal Spatial Properties and Antenna Patterns
AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT OF RF SIGNAL SPATIAL PROPERTIES AND ANTENNA PATTERNS Ing. Michal VAVRDA, Doctoral Degree Programme (2) Dept. of Radio Electronics, FEEC, BUT E-mail: [email protected] Ing. Ivo HERTL, Doctoral Degree Programme (2) Dept. of Radio Electronics, FEEC, BUT E-mail: [email protected] Supervised by: Dr. Zdeněk Nováček ABSTRACT Radio frequency signal measurement site is described in the presented paper. It enables direction setting by antenna rotator and signal frequency scanning and consequently measuring the parameters using a receiver. The site has two basic uses: measuring of antenna pattern; scanning and locating of RF signal. The site and its operation are made universally, the accuracy depends of rotator quality and parameter amount depends of receiver type. 1 INTRODUCTION The current development in wireless communication requires powerful technologies for antenna testing and signal measuring. Sophisticated devices measure plenty signal parameters, but there is not simply site, which combines the use of these devices with antenna rotator system for measuring the spatial properties of signal also. In this work the site for scanning, locating and measuring of radio frequency signal and measuring and testing the spatial properties of antennas is designed. It consists of antenna system, antenna rotor, receiver and control unit (rotator controller, PC and operating software). The antenna system and receiver type both has to be chosen depending on the measuring conditions (service, frequency band, bandwidth, polarisation, etc.). The locating accuracy is increased with antenna directivity but the necessary number of measuring directions is also increased. The antenna rotor quality determines the accuracy of location. -

The rotator is to have the capability to be manually controlled (press button switch) or software driven. It should incorporate safety stop switches as well as position and speed sensors in order to achieve smooth movement and correct stopping position. The basic principle needs to be studies are speed control using the microcontroller, exact angle of position movement, and stoppable motor can be done in time due to emergency cases. As larger load is applied to the device, the large inertia will need to be compensated to achieve a good dynamic. -

C-Band TWG-1 Best Practices Annexes
ANNEX D Approved June 4, 2020 Terrestrial-Satellite Coexistence During and After the C-Band Transition Technical Work Group #1 Scope of Work 1. Preventing Interference 1.1. Emphasize the need for the FCC to complete its review of the pending C-Band incumbent earth station registration and modification applications in IBFS. 1.2. Agree on relevant data necessary for protection of Earth stations. (All 3.7 GHz Service licensees need to work from a common list of Earth stations.) 1.3. Understand best practices that 3.7 GHz Service licensees use to predict whether the FCC- specified power flux density (PFD) limits will be exceeded at earth station locations. 1.4. Agree on a common method for converting between PFD and power spectral density (PSD) at the Earth station. 1.5. Understand the nature of the Earth station receive filters to ensure that they will be adequate to reject 3.7 GHz Service signals below 3.98 GHz over a range of environmental conditions in order to ensure that the FCC-specified blocking PFD limit is met. 2. Interference Detection 2.1. Develop a procedure for earth stations to positively identify or exclude sources of interference. This procedure should rapidly eliminate non-3.7 GHz Service causes and initiate the inter-service interference resolution process. Consider whether a detection and alerting mechanism could be automated, particularly for major Earth station facilities. 2.2. Develop estimates of distances between 3.7 GHz facilities and earth stations beyond which interference is unlikely. 2.3. Develop a process for positively identifying or excluding sources of 3.7 GHz interference. -

An Analysis of Users' Perceptions
Development of a city website – An analysis of users’ perceptions Sarianna Visuri Sarianna Visuri Master’s Thesis International Business Management 2021 MASTER’S THESIS Arcada Degree Programme: International Business Management Identification number: 7813 Author: Sarianna Visuri Title: Development of a city website – An analysis of users’ per- ceptions Supervisor (Arcada): Niklas Eriksson Commissioned by: Abstract: The internet has enabled and enhanced communication between people, organizations, governments, and cities. The internet and digitalization of services has changed the way the cities and other public sector actors provide services and information to the residents. The objective of this study was to find out the main improvements the current espoo.fi website users want to have on the renewed espoo.fi website. The renewed website will be launched in 2021. There was a mixed method questionnaire conducted, with both closed and open-ended questions. Espoo has had its website since the late 1990’s and there has been one prior renewal of the website in 2011. The questionnaire was distributed via the current Espoo.fi website and Espoo’s social media channels. It was answered by 433 re- spondents. The research questions were: how is the current Espoo.fi website used, what are the users’ perceptions of the content on the website, and what are the main improvements the users want to the renewed espoo.fi? The current website was stated to be used to find information on the services, mainly on weekly and monthly basis, and the content of the website needed to be easy to find. The five most wanted topics by the respondents to be on the renewed website were: the services of Espoo, and more precisely health services should be more clearly stated, the contact information of all service locations, and of the employ- ees of Espoo especially working in the city planning and building, city planning issues, a better search function, and decisions made by the City Council and the committees, includ- ing the minutes of the meetings.
