The role of GFOSS in environmental protection:
the Arpa Piemonte experience
FOSS.4GIS.GOV – Brasilia 27 september 2016
Arpa Piemonte is the Regional Environmental Protection Agency of Piedmont (Italy)
Arpa is public body with own administrative, technical-juridical, asset management and accounting purposes
Arpa Piemonte
25.000 Sq Km

to prevent, reduce and eliminate pollutionto address environmental problems according to integrated
multidisciplinary approachto provide information and training activities regarding the
conditions of the environment
The aim of our agency
Prediction and prevention of anthropic risks and natural risks
Measuring activities for purposes of conformity checksWater, soil and air quality monitoringReports on the environment conditions

Pro Cons
GIS multieditingFlexibilityEasy to usePower spatial analysisMultiple installationReplicaWell documented
Raster management
Geodatabase
Exchange (Brazil-EC) for free open source software for GIS – Brasilia 27 settembre 2016
e.g. landslide studing needs to analyze a lots of different kind of data:
Monitoring dataBorehole and geotechnical dataHystorical and archive dataField survey infromation
Data interconnection in a geodatabase
We try to automatise as much as as possible all repeating spatial analysis. After geometry digitalization Postgres derive the main statistics, like:
Permanent scatterers movement data;Landslide interaction with good, buildings and facilitiesOther data such as boreholes, monitoring systems, landuse, rainfall data ecc..

Huge infrastructure projects
Builders of huge infrastructure require very structured monitoring plans, that last for several years
thousands of measurements taken every month, seldom every week
data from must be shared and accessible to all colleagues
analysis and reports on weekly, monthly and annual basis
FOSS.4GIS.GOV – Brasilia 27 september 2016
Data organization
The database contains:
master data infrastructure
master data monitoring
Description of Monitored environmental components
Description of measurement points
Values of measures
With data you can:
To manage time schedule compliance
To avoid twice measures
To highlight data anomalies
FOSS.4GIS.GOV – Brasilia 27 september 2016
What do we measure
Monitored environmental components
Water (river and underground water);Air (PM10, Nox, etc….);Noise (from traffic and from construction site);Asbestos;Ionizing radiations (from rocks);Soils;Vegetation;Fauna.
Every measure has its geographic information: Point, line, polygon

The real strength of GFOSS: ERIKUS
Centro Italia 24/08/2016 a 6.0 Mw earthquake
FOSS.4GIS.GOV – Brasilia 27 september 2016
ERIKUSERIKUS is a QGIS project to help to collect data on evaluation of the buildings after an earthquake.It was tested during a simulation test on 3 municipalities at june 2016.
After the “Centro Italia earthquake” DPCN asks to use it on the field.Now more than 70 municipalities collect data with ERIKUS.
