Understanding the Attitudes of Teenagers towards Reuse and Recycle in Paper Usage

Abstract — Pollution is one major problem that has never been completely solved up until now. Though it has been discussed and debated for over decades, these continuous acts are becoming more harmful to human beings as well as the environment. As the seriousness of the matter started to capture world’s attention, solution such as recycling has been put forward. Imperative as it is, the responsibility falls on human attitudes to apply recycling in daily life. Among the matter discussed is paper usage which is indisputably very prominent in human life particularly teenagers. With 408 teenagers as respondents, the objectives of this paper are to identify the perceptions’ of teenagers in reusing as well as recycling papers in their life. The findings indicate that even though they were aware with the need of reusing and recycling, they did not practise it in life. Index Terms — Pollution, recycle, reuse, teenagers, environment.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Implementation in Malaysian Political Parties

Assessing UAV Landslide Mapping Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for Landslide Mapping Activity

The purpose of this research is to improve the landslide mapping using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for the area of slope displacement. It further presents the UAV namely multi-motor that being used to capture images at the research area located in Parit, Perak. The objective of this research paper is to develop a three dimensional of landslide area produced from the UAV images. For the whole process of image processing, thirty six control points are established using global positioning system (GPS) staic mehtod using Agisoft Photoscan. The results show that the digital elevation model (DEM), aspect Model, slope model, and digital orthophoto can be obtained using the procedure and method used in the study. The information is obtained through accurate assessment results and used to create a 3D model which is then used to monitor technique applications. The restitution stereo model is also by three dimensional rotations or transformation in 3D surface. From here, the landslide can be detected by calculation of three difference epoch data achieved from Digital Elevation Model (DEM) generation. Prior to that, this paper focuses on the monitoring of that area based on DEM area and volume generated from 3D surface analysis. To conclude this study shows that UAV can be used for producing digital map.
