TRANSPORT OF DANGEROUS GOODS AND RISK MANAGEMENT 177Many times users want to use a raster data set as traditional (analog) charts, but this time using a computer or wantto develop some <strong>of</strong> its specific GIS applications. In the course <strong>of</strong> the project <strong>of</strong> technological development 1 used asophisticated method <strong>of</strong> raster data sets for control <strong>and</strong> monitoring <strong>of</strong> <strong>dangerous</strong> <strong>goods</strong> <strong>transport</strong> ships, road <strong>and</strong> railvehicles, in conjunction with global positioning devices (GPS), which is reduced to the following specific areas <strong>of</strong>application :computer supported chartometric (coordinates <strong>of</strong> the position sensing, measuring length, angles, etc...);computer-supported monitoring <strong>of</strong> <strong>transport</strong>ation funding <strong>and</strong> support for their movement (as base maps fornavigation systems rolling stock <strong>of</strong> all forms <strong>of</strong> <strong>transport</strong>);development <strong>of</strong> GIS applications for environmental protection from possible accidents during <strong>transport</strong> <strong>and</strong>h<strong>and</strong>ling <strong>of</strong> hazardous materials in industrial plants <strong>and</strong> others.We use technology <strong>of</strong> digital aer<strong>of</strong>oto products (DOF), which is supplied on the basis <strong>of</strong> satellite or aerial images, inorder <strong>of</strong> quality <strong>and</strong> time-optimal spatial updates on a particular vector set.Application <strong>of</strong> vector spatial data setsThe specific tools developed within the GIS s<strong>of</strong>tware, contributing to the procedures <strong>of</strong> search <strong>and</strong> analysis as muchcloser to users. In this way the user can create queries within a single theme (which is where the industrial facilityfor the treatment <strong>of</strong> ship waste), or make inquiries by overlapping several topics (such as buildings has a largeadministrative) use network analysis capabilities (e.g. the shortest route between terminals Shipping h<strong>and</strong>ling <strong>of</strong>hazardous waste <strong>and</strong> its processing plant or l<strong>and</strong>fill disposal).The results <strong>of</strong> such analysis can be presented in graphical or textual form. Also, the application <strong>of</strong> network analysiscapabilities <strong>and</strong> data in vector format with databases can be obtained from the analysis <strong>of</strong> the shortest path betweentwo points, which is <strong>of</strong> great importance in the field <strong>of</strong> traffic safety in the <strong>transport</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>dangerous</strong> <strong>goods</strong>. On Figure1 gives an example <strong>of</strong> determining the shortest path between the terminals for the reception <strong>of</strong> ship wastes <strong>and</strong> theirprocessing facility in the coastal zone <strong>of</strong> the Danube 2 .Figure 1: Determination <strong>of</strong> the shortest path using the data in vector format 2 .
