Full textAbstract:
The objective of this paper is to identify synergy fields and relationships between knowledge management and environmental informatics. From the perspective of knowledge management many sophisticated techniques, concepts, and methodologies developed in the domain of environmental informatics can build the starting point for finding answers to open questions in knowledge management. For example, meta-knowledge management can capitalise on existing results gained in the area of metadata management, which plays a key role in environmental informatics. Up to now, many tools for knowledge processing have been applied in the domain of environmental informatics to help solve environmental problems. New knowledge management tools can improve this situation which in turn contributes directly or indirectly to a significant improvement of the protection of our environment. In order to achieve its objective, the paper introduces knowledge management with a strong focus on information technology. This introduction is followed by a literature survey on knowledge processing in environmental applications. Thereafter, several environmental information systems are analysed in the light of knowledge management. A special emphasis is placed on how geographical information systems can be used for knowledge management. Finally, the paper closes with suggestions of further areas of research in the synergy field of knowledge management and environmental informatics.

Environmental Informatics is an interdisciplinary subject and it is the combination of Environment related subjects and Informatics related subjects. It is the utilization and applications of Informatics and IT principles and tools in Environmental Management, Environmental Monitoring, and Science. In other words, it is the practice of Sustainable Computing and Information Technology. Environmental Informatics is responsible for the applications of Information Technology in Environment, Nature and various allied subjects and areas like Geology, Agriculture, Forestry, Geography, Climatology, Oceanography and all these are valuable stakeholders of Environmental Informatics. Ecology Informatics in some contexts is related with Eco Informatics. Environmental Informatics is broader than Environmental Information Technology; as it interconnects both environmental as well as information science for the complete natural processes with language common to both humans and computers. Internationally Environmental Informatics has become a field of study in many universities. Apart from PG degree in recent past Environmental Informatics has also started at Bachelors level and many universities have started an initiative on this. This is a conceptual paper and also analytical study regarding Environmental Informatics including its basic feature and importance as an academic program.

Environment is an alarming concern and valuable to all of us, as all of us belong to the environment and ecology in a different context. There are different studies available related to the environment and as far as Informatics is concerned, it is the field of practice and study related to the information systems and information activities using tools, techniques and technologies. The applications of Informatics in different areas and branches are important concerns viz. agriculture, healthcare, transport and tourism, education and training, government and administration, business and commerce; and in this context Environmental Informatics are important. This is the application of Informatics and Information Technologies in the environment and allied subjects. There are universities and academic bodies offering Environmental Informatics academic programs mainly from the environment and allied departments and units. Though, the field is a combination of both the areas and thus can be offered in Informatics or allied departments or bodies. As far as Informatics related branches are concerned important are IT, Information Systems, Information Management, Computer Sciences, etc. And in all these departments or units Environmental Informatics can be started as a Major or Specialization with proper educational policies. iSchools is an international consortium and body dedicated to combining all information related institutes, departments and programs under one roof with a focus on technologies for the societies and different sectors. Thus, the field of Environmental Informatics can be started easily in the iSchools. Furthermore, in recent past iSchools considered as the academic units offering information or IT related programs irrespective of their affiliation to the iSchools Organization, United States. This is maybe considered as a policy paper for the environmentalist, educationalist, IT educators to think about the potentialities of Environmental Informatics in Informatics or IT or simply iSchools related departments, programs, etc.

Information and communication technology diffuse through the whole of our current practices and form our entire life. Just in the media, at political, economic and scientific level, and often even in normal conversation among people is the global environment very frequented and discussed question. The results of the environment monitoring in Czech Republic (its natural and humane components) are publicized in numeric form (field measurements data including derived indicators) and in cartography representation (Geographical Information System) at any internet servers of various levels of public administration. Environment indicators are nation-wide. At self-government region management authority level publication of regional indicators describing natural and human components of environment is null practically, in both print and electronic form. Similar situation persists in describing preserved natural territories (nature monuments and reservations, Natura2000 areas, etc. …). Somewhat better is the situation of historical and in part of technical objects. Complex description of regional environment is missing.

Spatial problems and spatial decisions are decisive in agricultural-environmental informatics systems and the solutions require systems that can collect, evaluate and display spatial data. The distinctive features of spatial informatics systems therefore have to be considered when establishing integrated spatial informatics systems.However, the prepared spatial evaluations are not the only „added value” elements of a completed informatics system. The method of access can also speed up the work of participants and the whole system, making it more efficient with simple data-handling and the application of open standards. The significance of prepared database archives can also increase, since the accumulated data-assets are easy to utilize and become marketable.

Full textAbstract:
The soil scientist's duty in the debate on environmental management is, at least, to understand the soil and to provide and purvey accurate and precise information concerning it. This paper deals with information m environmental soil management; especially the way its quality and quantity may be modified by soil variation and various kinds of uncertainty, and how its presentation may be enhanced by the accoutrements of information technology. Soil exhibits continuous change m space and time. This variation is usually considered to be problematic in relation to sampling effort, quality of information and for optimal soil management. When ecological principles are considered soil variation is seen as a risk-averse strategy and may be advantageous for sustainable management. Evidence from cultivation is presented to support this hypothesis. The concept of pedodiversity is discussed and a simple example of an optimal preservation strategy based on pedodiversity is given. Three types of uncertainty in soil information are considered in detail: stochastic, deterministic and semantic. The tools of informatics which allow the soil scientist to provide more information or more detailed information for the same effort are discussed briefly These are knowledge-based systems, simulation modelling, spatial and temporal statistics and geostatistics, multivariate techniques, aspatial and spatial information systems. Combinations of these techniques are particularly powerful. Environmental soil management requires a philosophy that generates ways of thinking about soil from which flows realistic soil data models. Such models can be manipulated by the tools of informatics which are not to be considered as ends in themselves.

Full textAbstract:
Background and Purpose. Nurse managers are in an excellent position for providing leadership and support within the institutions they serve and are often responsible for accessing information that is vital to the improvement of health facility processes and patients’ outcomes. Therefore, competency in informatics is essential. The purposes of this study are to examine current informatics competency levels of nurse managers and to identify the variables that influence these competencies.Methods. A questionnaire designed to assess demographic information and nursing informatics competency was completed by 68 nurse managers. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to analyze the factors influencing informatics competency.Results. Descriptive analysis of the data revealed that informatics competency of these nurse managers was in the moderate range77.65±8.14. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that level of education, nursing administration experience, and informatics education/training were significant factors affecting competency levels.Conclusion. The factors identified in this study can serve as a reference for nurse managers who were wishing to improve their informatics competency, hospital administrators seeking to provide appropriate training, and nursing educators who were making decisions about nursing informatics curricula. These findings suggest that efforts to enhance the informatics competency of nurse managers have marked potential benefits.

Full textAbstract:
Northern First Nations in Canada have experienced environmental change throughout history, adapting to these changes based on personal experience interacting with their environment. Community members of Fort Albany First Nation of northern Ontario, Canada, have voiced their concern that their youths’ connection to the land is diminishing, making this generation more vulnerable to environmental change. Community members previously identified the collaborative-geomatics informatics tool as potentially useful for fostering intergenerational knowledge transfer. In this article, we assess the potential of the informatics tool to reconnect youth with the surrounding land in order to strengthen the adaptive capacity of Fort Albany First Nation. The tool was introduced to students in an environmental-outreach camp that included traditional activities. Students used global positioning systems and geo-tagged photographs that were loaded onto the informatics tool. Semi-directed interviews revealed that the students enjoyed the visual and spatial capabilities of the system, and recognised its potential to be used in conjunction with traditional activities. This pilot study suggests that the tool has the potential to be used by youth to provide an opportunity for the intergenerational transfer of Indigenous knowledge, but further evaluation is required.

Full textAbstract:
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Diabetes is a group of chronic metabolic diseases and significant gaps remain in our understanding of disease etiology, treatment regimens, and diabetes-related complications. The objective of study is to demonstrate how informatics techniques can leverage real-world data for diabetes research and identify barriers for implementation. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We evaluated informatics applications of real-world data in diabetes research conducted by the Facelli Research Group. The types of real-world data were categorized into clinical records, diabetes-related repositories, wearable sensors, and other data sources. Translational informatics applications were characterized into thematic groups of 1.) use of electronic health records, registries, and claims and other data sources to generate real-world evidence, 2.) evolution of novel methods to accelerate generation and use of real-world data, and 3.) infrastructure to support the generation and use of real-world data in translational science. A literature review is being conducted to identify additional articles meeting these themes focused on diabetes research. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: 6 research projects were included for analysis. The diabetes-focus spanned type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and general diabetes mellitus. Informatics methods included machine learning and data mining while real-world data sources included electronic medical records, the Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study, continuous glucose monitors, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) air pollution monitors. Overall, computability of real-world data, linkage of medical concepts to standardized terminologies, volume of data, and adoption of novel artificial intelligence methods were major determinants of successful implementation. Future work will systematically evaluate informatics applications of real-world data in diabetes from the academic community at large. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Translational informatics approaches are poised to leverage real-world data and better understand diabetes etiology, treatment regimens, and diabetes-related complications. By understanding barriers and opportunities for informatics methods, we can expedite translational applications in diabetes research.

Summary Objective: To discuss interdisciplinary research and education in the context of informatics and medicine by commenting on the paper of Kuhn et al. “Informatics and Medicine: From Molecules to Populations”. Method: Inviting an international group of experts in biomedical and health informatics and related disciplines to comment on this paper. Results and Conclusions: The commentaries include a wide range of reasoned arguments and original position statements which, while strongly endorsing the educational needs identified by Kuhn et al., also point out fundamental challenges that are very specific to the unusual combination of scientific, technological, personal and social problems characterizing biomedical informatics. They point to the ultimate objectives of managing difficult human health problems, which are unlikely to yield to technological solutions alone. The psychological, societal, and environmental components of health and disease are emphasized by several of the commentators, setting the stage for further debate and constructive suggestions.

Full textAbstract:
Background: The purpose of this literature review is to understand geographical information systems (GIS) and how they can be applied to public health informatics, medical informatics, and epidemiology.Method: Relevant papers that reflected the use of geographical information systems (GIS) in health research were identified from four academic databases: Academic Search Complete, BioMed Central, PubMed Central, and Scholars Portal, as well as Google Scholar. The search strategy used was to identify articles with “geographic information systems”, “GIS”, “public health”, “medical informatics”, “epidemiology”, and “health geography” as main subject headings or text words in titles and abstracts. Papers published between 1997 and 2014 were considered and a total of 39 articles were included to inform the authors on the use of GIS technologies in health informatics research.Results: The main applications of GIS in health informatics and epidemiology include disease surveillance, health risk analysis, health access and planning, and community health profiling. GIS technologies can significantly improve quality and efficiency in health research as substantial connections can be made between a population’s health and their geographical location.Conclusions: Gains in health informatics can be made when GIS are applied through research, however, improvements need to occur in the quantity and quality of data input for these systems to ensure better geographical health maps are used so that proper conclusions between public health and environmental factors may be made.

Full textAbstract:
I am writing to express my opinion for the establishment of a new field of health informatics called Geriatric Medical Informatics (GMI). As our population ages, the need for specialized medical care for older adults is becoming increasingly important. At the same time, advances in information technology are revolutionizing the way we approach healthcare, providing opportunities for improved diagnosis, treatment, and patient outcomes.GMI would focus on the application of information technology to the unique healthcare needs of older adults. On the other hand, Geriatric medical informatics is a field that uses technology and data analytics to improve the care of older adults. By collecting and analyzing data about an individual's health history, medications, and other relevant information, healthcare providers can develop personalized treatment plans that address their unique needs.

Full textAbstract:
Soil erosion is a severe threat to food production systems globally. Food production in farming systems decreases with increasing soil erosion hazards. This review article focuses on geo-informatics applications for identifying, assessing and predicting erosion hazards for sustainable farming system development. Several researchers have used a variety of quantitative and qualitative methods with erosion models, integrating geo-informatics techniques for spatial interpretations to address soil erosion and land degradation issues. The review identified different geo-informatics methods of erosion hazard assessment and highlighted some research gaps that can provide a basis to develop appropriate novel methodologies for future studies. It was found that rainfall variation and land-use changes significantly contribute to soil erosion hazards. There is a need for more research on the spatial and temporal pattern of water erosion with rainfall variation, innovative techniques and strategies for landscape evaluation to improve the environmental conditions in a sustainable manner. Examining water erosion and predicting erosion hazards for future climate scenarios could also be approached with emerging algorithms in geo-informatics and spatiotemporal analysis at higher spatial resolutions. Further, geo-informatics can be applied with real-time data for continuous monitoring and evaluation of erosion hazards to risk reduction and prevent the damages in farming systems.

Aim: Public health systems have embraced health informatics and information technology as a potential transformational tool to improve real-time surveillance systems, communication, and sharing of information among various agencies. Global pandemic outbreaks like Zika and Ebola were quickly controlled due to electronic surveillance systems enabling efficient information access and exchange. However, there is the need for a more robust technology to enhance adequate epidemic forecasting, data sharing, and effective communication. The purpose of this review was to examine the use of informatics and information technology tools and its impact on public health delivery. Method: Investigators searched six electronic databases. These were MEDLINE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) Complete, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, COMPENDEX, Scopus, and Academic Search Premier from January 2000 to 31 March 2016. Results: A total of 60 articles met the eligibility criteria for inclusion. These studies were organized into three areas as (1) definition of the term public health informatics; (2) type of public health surveillance systems and implications for public health; and (3) electronic surveillance systems functionality, capability, training, and challenges. Our analysis revealed that due to the growing expectations to provide real-time response and population-centered evidence-based public health in this information-driven age there has been a surge in informatics and information technology adoption. Education and training programs are now available to equip public health students and professionals with skills in public health informatics. However, obstacles including interoperability, data standardization, privacy, and technology transfer persist. Conclusion: Re-engineering the delivery of public health is necessary to meet the demands of the 21st century and beyond. To meet this expectation, public health must invest in workforce development and capacity through education and training in informatics.

Full textAbstract:
Forensic medicine has always held the human environment, either seen as a source for pathological agents or the background of judicial events, in great consideration. The concept of the environment has evolved through time, expanding itself to include all the physical and virtual sub-spaces in which we exist. We can nowadays talk of technoenvironmental reality; virtual spaces exploded because of the COVID-19 pandemic making us come to terms with the fact that those are the places where we work, where we socialize and, even, where we meet our doctors and can be cured. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has contributed to shaping new virtual realities that have got their own rules yet to be discovered, carved and respected. We already fight a daily battle to save our natural environment: along with the danger of green crimes, comes the need for environmental justice and environmental forensic medicine that will probably develop a forensic branch and an experimental branch, to implement our technical culture leading to definition of the real dimension of the risk itself to improve the role of legal medicine in the Environmental Risk Management. While green criminology addresses widespread green crimes, a virtual environment criminology will also develop, maybe with a contribution of AI in the justice field. For a sustainable life, the environmental revolution must rapidly take place, and there is the need for a new justice, a new forensic medicine and a new criminology too.

Objectives In this study, the storytelling-based real-life problem-solving artificial intelligence convergence education program was applied to pre-service Informatics teachers, and its educational effect was verified by focusing on confluence competency.
 Methods The storytelling-based real-life problem-solving artificial intelligence convergence education program was implemented as a major subject of the Informatics teacher training course, and the effectiveness of the program was confirmed by comparing the students' creativity confluence competency before and after the experimental treatment.
 Results As a result of the paired-sample t-test for the pre-post tests, a statistically significant improvement was confirmed both in creativity confluence competency and each sub-factor. In addition, when looking at each item, statistically significant improvements were confirmed before and after the experimental treatment in 56 of the 59 items.
 Conclusions The storytelling-based real-life problem-solving artificial intelligence convergence education for pre-service Informatics teachers is meaningful in that research on artificial intelligence convergence education for pre-service or in-service Informatics teachers needs to be revised. However, Informatics teachers play a significant role in artificial intelligence convergence education in the school field, so understanding artificial intelligence convergence education should be the basis, and related studies must be conducted continuously.

Bionanomedicine and environmental research share need common terms and ontologies. This study applied knowledge systems, data mining, and bibliometrics used in nano-scale ADME research from 1991 to 2011. The prominence of nano-ADME in environmental research began to exceed the publication rate in medical research in 2006. That trend appears to continue as a result of the growing products in commerce using nanotechnology, that is, 5-fold growth in number of countries with nanomaterials research centers. Funding for this research virtually did not exist prior to 2002, whereas today both medical and environmental research is funded globally. Key nanoparticle research began with pharmacology and therapeutic drug-delivery and contrasting agents, but the advances have found utility in the environmental research community. As evidence ultrafine aerosols and aquatic colloids research increased 6-fold, indicating a new emphasis on environmental nanotoxicology. User-directed expert elicitation from the engineering and chemical/ADME domains can be combined with appropriate Boolean logic and queries to define the corpus of nanoparticle interest. The study combined pharmacological expertise and informatics to identify the corpus by building logical conclusions and observations. Publication records informatics can lead to an enhanced understanding the connectivity between fields, as well as overcoming the differences in ontology between the fields.

SummaryIn 2004, medical informatics as a scientific community recognized an emerging field of “clinical bioinformatics” that included work bringing bioinformatics data and knowledge into the clinic. In the intervening decade, “translational biomedical informatics” has emerged as the umbrella term for the work that brings together biological entities and clinical entities. The major challenges continue: understanding the clinical significance of basic ‘omics’ (and other) measurements, and communicating this to increasingly empowered patients/consumers who often have access to this information outside usual medical channels. It has become clear that basic molecular information must be combined with environmental and lifestyle data to fully define, predict, and manage health status..
