Abstract In the current era of automation, the quality of the Regional Management Information System (SIMDA) is expected to produce quality information within the Local Government of Badung Regency. The purpose of this study was to obtain empirical evidence of the influence of the quality of the Regional Management Information System (SIMDA) in the Regional Apparatus Organization (OPD) of Badung Regency on the Quality of Information. At the same time, this study's specific objective is to obtain empirical evidence about the ability of User Satisfaction and Usability Perception to moderate the influence of the Quality of Regional Management Information Systems (SIMDA) in the Regional Apparatus Organization of Badung Regency on Information Quality. The number of respondents from 38 OPDs in Badung Regency is 135 people consisting of the Head of the Finance Subdivision, the Revenue Treasurer, the Shopping Treasurer, and the SIMDA Operators. The analysis tool uses simple regression techniques and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). This study concludes that the quality of SIMDA has a positive effect on the quality of information. User satisfaction significantly weakens the effect of SIMDA quality on information quality, while perceived usefulness significantly strengthens the effect of SIMDA quality on information quality.

The aim of the new Education Management Information System (EMIS) in St. Vincent and the Grenadines is to provide accurate and timely information to stakeholders including government departments, educational institutions, and local, regional and international organizations. The Ministry of Education's goal is to establish an EMIS that allows its 67 primary schools and 27 secondary schools to enter their information in real time. EMIS staff includes a deputy education planner and a statistician, but the EMIS primarily relies on school principals to deal with issues of data accuracy and timeliness, improved teacher training, increased inter-agency coordination, improved personnel efficiency, and better data management and protection.

The focus of this study is to present Farm Management Information System (FMIS) and its application in Agribusiness. FMIS is a software designed for high productivity in farming business (fish farming as a case study) and to assist agricultural farmers to perform various tasks with ease such as operational planning, implementation, documentation, and application for financial subsidies or grants. The study presents the template that could be used for fish farmers in order to ease their tasks. FMIS could be used by different stakeholders such as farmers, government organizations, service providers, and machinery or equipment or tools manufacturers to transfer information among each other. This paper discovered that lack of interoperability, insufficient stakeholder's collaboration and a not clearly defined business model has hampered the proper functioning and adaptation of useful Information Communication Technologies (ICT's) such as the FMIS. Manual approach is limited in the affairs of better farm fish management, one method by which this can be improved is by support system which this work focuses to address. The FMIS software designed uses C#, Visual Studio and SQL Server, will assist the users or Fish or Farm managers in solving their day to day problems such as accurate stocking record, sales/harvesting record, payment record among others. The study concluded that with the application of FMIS in Fish farming, the processing of farm information activities can be automated to a large extent, thereby reducing processing time and increasing farm work accuracy. The study recommended that FMIS training should be organized for Fish or Farm Managers in groups at both the Local, State and Federal levels in order to improve their efficiencies.

Abstract. We describe a Web-GIS wildfire prevention and management platform (AEGIS) developed as an integrated and easy-to-use decision support tool to manage wildland fire hazards in Greece (http://aegis.aegean.gr). The AEGIS platform assists with early fire warning, fire planning, fire control and coordination of firefighting forces by providing online access to information that is essential for wildfire management. The system uses a number of spatial and non-spatial data sources to support key system functionalities. Land use/land cover maps were produced by combining field inventory data with high-resolution multispectral satellite images (RapidEye). These data support wildfire simulation tools that allow the users to examine potential fire behavior and hazard with the Minimum Travel Time fire spread algorithm. End-users provide a minimum number of inputs such as fire duration, ignition point and weather information to conduct a fire simulation. AEGIS offers three types of simulations, i.e., single-fire propagation, point-scale calculation of potential fire behavior, and burn probability analysis, similar to the FlamMap fire behavior modeling software. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) were utilized for wildfire ignition risk assessment based on various parameters, training methods, activation functions, pre-processing methods and network structures. The combination of ANNs and expected burned area maps are used to generate integrated output map of fire hazard prediction. The system also incorporates weather information obtained from remote automatic weather stations and weather forecast maps. The system and associated computation algorithms leverage parallel processing techniques (i.e., High Performance Computing and Cloud Computing) that ensure computational power required for real-time application. All AEGIS functionalities are accessible to authorized end-users through a web-based graphical user interface. An innovative smartphone application, AEGIS App, also provides mobile access to the web-based version of the system.
