The present work presents the accomplishmentswithin the research project CEEX „Telematic system for theon line management of the degraded within built up areas –ZoneMAP” in the program INFOSOC between 15.09.2006-31.10.2007. The authors of the present article are part of thecommittee of accomplishment of the project. The generalobjective of the project ZoneMAP consists of the system forthe management and the on line monitoring of the degradedwithin the built up areas due to the uncontrolled wastestoring, by elaborating an electronic system of geographicalpositioning GPS/GIS.The general objective of the ZoneMAP project consists indrawing up a telematic system regarding the monitoring ofthe areas affected by the uncontrollable waste storing byusing the newest informational and communicationaltechnologies through the elaboration of a GPS/GIS electronicgeographical positioning system.The system for on-line management of the affectedlocations within the built up areas are defined the followingdata categories: data regarding the waste management(monitored locations within the built up areas, waste,pollution sources, waste stores, waste processing stations),data regarding the environment protection (environmentalquality parameters: water, air, soil), spatial data (thematicmaps).Through the automatic collection of the data regarding theenvironment, the meteorology and the ecology it is aiming atthe realization of a monitoring system, equipped with sensorsand/or translators capable of measuring and translating (intoelectrical signals) measures with meteorological character(such as: the intensity of the solar radiation, temperature,humidity) but also state measures of the ecological system(such as: the concentration of nutrients in water and soil, thepollution in water, air and soil, biomasses). The collectedmeasures will have to be converted into numerical valuesthat will be stored in the database of the system.The system’s database is distributed on the followinglevels: the central database server (SQL Microsoft server)and the local database servers (Microsoft ACCESS). Theorganization, the description and the processing of thecadastral data requires the utilization of a GIS(Geographical Information System) type product. TheNetSET package is also considered because it offers a verygood balance between price, performances and facilities,covering all the aspects concerning GIS applicationsdevelopment.
