The Use of Geocoding for Home Healthcare Application and Management an Epidemic Situation
ISSN 0354-8724 (hard copy) | ISSN 1820-7138 (online) The use of Geocoding for Home Healthcare Application and Management an Epidemic Situation. Case of COVID-19 Virus Outbreak Ahmed AkakbaA, Belkacem LahmarA Received: August 20, 2020 | Revised: October 21, 2020 | Accepted: November 27, 2020 doi: 10.5937/gp24-28062 Abstract The lack of an addressing system is one of the problems of urban management in Algeria, which makes it hard to find the addresses concerned, especially in case of crisis where the decision-makers need ac- curate data in real-time. Like many countries, Algeria follows up the world health organization guide- lines that declared the COVID-19 virus as pandemic and recommended the full quarantine and reduces the social contact as much as possible; however, these procedures weren’t enough to control the in- creasing number of confirmed cases, which exceeded the hospital’s capacities. To face up the outbreak of this pandemic, the Algerian health professionals decided to treat most coronavirus cases at home. This study aims to use a geocoding tool developed in C# programming language and ArcGIS Software Development Kit (SDK) to help in the epidemiological control operation in Ain Touta city and simplifies the interventions using a spatial approach. These problems are addressed by a tool to collect, analyze, store, and process archiving of the geographic data using a geodatabase server. Keywords: Geocoding; COVID-19; quarantine; address; home healthcare Introduction The Algerian cities are mosaics with random and un- rus in Ain Touta and recording more than 200 con- controlled urban evolution for many reasons (eco- firmed cases, the local hospital reaches its maximum nomics, politics, security, historic…etc.), so the ter- capacity (50 beds). -

Farida Naceur Fatiha Belmessous INFORMAL SETTLEMENT
INFORMAL SETTLEMENT DWELLERS IN ALGERIA: HOW LOCAL INITIATIVES AND PRACTICES CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVING THEIR LIVING CONDITIONS Farida Naceur Institute of Architecture, University of Batna, Algeria Fatiha Belmessous UMR CNRS 5600 EVS, Rives, ENTPE, Lyon 1. Introduction Recently there is a growing interest in In scientific research with a purely economic perspective, informal re-understanding urban settlements have often been viewed as bad physical environments, associated with illegality, marginalisation, precariousness and social informal settlements problems. Over the years new perspectives have emerged. In 2000, De by stressing the Soto used the term “survivalist strategies” to highlight the ingenuity importance of social and creativity of informal settlement dwellers (De Soto, 2000). Friedman context and dynamics introduced the notion of empowerment, self-organisation and coping strategies by which informal settlement dwellers improve their conditions in the formation (Friedman, 2005). Roy has emphasised how informal settlements need and development of to be understood in a different way and introduced urban informality informal settlements. as “an organizing logic” (Roy, 2005: 148). This shows the growing interest in re-understanding urban informal settlements by stressing the importance of social context and dynamics in the formation and development of informal settlements. Recent Algerian research has begun to reveal the dynamism of informal settlement dwellers, their commitment and their struggles for the improvement of their living environment (Bekkar, 1995: 64; Semmoud, 2009: 67; Kerdoud, 2005; Mouaziz, 2016). Starting from this perspective, this chapter aims to highlight the socio-spatial, cultural and contextual factors that contribute to the formation and persistence of informal settlements in Algeria. It focuses on the case study of Batna, one of the most dynamic cities in eastern Algeria and the most affected by the expansion of informal urbanisation. -

Low- and and image to the cities. In addition, most of the houses that medium-income Algerians are facing this issue, despite various have been built did not meet the needs of Algerian society in policies introduced by the state to ensure everyone is having most cases. Moreover, it is believed that Algeria does not access to housing provision. Based on the literature, majority of low- and medium-income Algerians are unable to own or buy a have a clear and high-quality housing policy to achieve the decent house, this leads them renting low-quality houses.

The Most Important Climatic Elements Affecting the Comfort of Tourists in the Aures Mountains Case of Batna Region (East Algeria)
International Journal of Tourism & Hotel Business Management (IJTHBM) (ISSN: 2642-021X) 2020 SciTech Central Inc., USA Vol. 2 (3) 324-330 THE MOST IMPORTANT CLIMATIC ELEMENTS AFFECTING THE COMFORT OF TOURISTS IN THE AURES MOUNTAINS CASE OF BATNA REGION (EAST ALGERIA) Sabrina Meridja Department of Architectura, University of Algiers 1, 02 Didouche Mourad Street Algiers, Algeria. Louardi Kherrour1 Department of Geography and Territorial Planning, Houari Boumediene Sciences and Technology University, Algiers, Algeria. Lyes Belaid Department of Geography and Territorial Planning, Houari Boumediene Sciences and Technology University, Algiers, Algeria. Received 22 April 2020; Accepted 17 May 2020; Published 29 July 2020 ABSTRACT The aim of this study is the quantitative analysis of the tourist sites selection of the study area located in the Aures Mountains, eastern Algeria. Climate is one of the most important natural factors that affect humans’ physical and psychological wellbeing and their activity and mobility, the climate itself is a significant tourist attraction in many countries around the world, and also a specific factor in the opportunity to enjoy other sources of tourism (natural - historical - social). We can therefore say that climate with all its many components is either a source or a limiting factor for tourism. This research is based on an analytical approach that relies both on field studies and data collection, followed by a practical analytical approach by accessing data obtained from air stations in the area for the 1980 - 2018 period. To improve the results, a comparative analysis is included, by comparing the most popular climatic preferences for tourist-investment in the different state regions. -
Islam and Anticolonial Rebellions in North and West Africa, 1914-1918 Jonathan Krause University of Wolverhampton
Islam and Anticolonial Rebellions in North and West Africa, 1914-1918 Jonathan Krause University of Wolverhampton Abstract: European empires experienced widespread anticolonial rebellions during the First World War. These rebellions occurred for many different reasons, reflecting the diversity of context and history across colonial societies in Africa and Asia. Religion naturally played a strong role in most of the anticolonial rebellions during the First World War, most prominently Islam. This article looks at the role Islam played in two key anticolonial rebellions in North and West Africa: the rebellions in Batna, Algeria and the Kaocen War in Niger, respectively. The article examines how Islam was instrumentalized by rebels, imperial collaborators, and French officers and administrators to further their own ends. Rebels called upon Islam to help inspire anticolonial movements, to bind together diverse populations, and to contextualise their actions in wider socio-political conflicts. Imperial collaborators likewise called on religious authority to assist with European imperial recruitment efforts. French officers and administrators used Islam both as a justification and a target for collective punishment and repression after the rebellions were put down from 1917. This repression is still under-studied in a period usually portrayed as evidencing broad imperial harmony, rather than violent extraction and oppression. ‘There is no god but god – Mohammed is the prophet of god. The hearts of [our] enemies are separated [from god] due to their misdeeds. They make no distinction between the true and the false. If god gives you victory, no one will conquer you. How many small bands of men have overtaken large groups with the aid of God? God is with the patient.’1 This was the (rather lengthy) message written on the great black standard of Kaocen ben Mohammed, a Tuareg leader who besieged Agadez, Niger for some 80 days from December 1916 to March 1917. -

APPLICATION TO THE WILAYA OF BATNA (ALGERIA) * Kalla Mohamed Issam and Guettouche Mohamed Said Faculty of Earth Sciences, Geography and Territory Planning, Algeria; Laboratory of Geophysic (LGEOPH), USTHB, Algiers, Algeria *Corresponding Author; Received: 22 March 2017, Revised: 4 May 2017, Accepted: 4 July 2017 ABSTRACT: If the typology of epidemics varies considerably, their causes remain substantially related to many physical environment factors. The fact remains that the problem of vector-borne diseases is complex in view of the diversity of these diseases, the large number of vulnerabilities associated with them, and also the objective assessment of the impact of each of these factors. The use of geomatic tools, such as geographical information systems (GIS) and remote sensing techniques as spatial environmental phenomena and through the implementation of a GIS database, has enabled us to highlight the spatial distribution of these diseases and their magnitude, and has allowed us to subsequently relate them to some environmental factors that might explain the emergence of the disease and its importance. The results clearly show that approximately 48.89% of the total area of the province was found to be highly vulnerable, 2.83% at moderate vulnerability, while 48.28% of the province had low vulnerability.

GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites, 28(1), 289–302. https://doi.org/10.30892/gtg.28123-470 Abstract: The archaeological site of Timgad, located in the high plateaus East of Algeria, more precisely in the of Batna province, represents an outstanding universal value, it was classified in the world heritage of UNESCO in 1982, it attracts a significant number of tourists each year and represents an important economic resource. Timgad has benefited from legal and technical instruments of protection and valorization, but these instruments and means have not had the expected success. The objective of this study is to identify this heritage and the tourism reality in this site on the basis of the field study, which has determined the socio-economic characteristics of the visitors and their impressions on the archaeological site and assess the available opportunities.
