Visualization of urban floodplains in the Amazon foothill using the geo-inspired model of natural vector multi-agents (AVNG)

In the specialized literature, there are different ways to calculate and display flooded areas by geographical entities (rivers or streams), using mathematical and physical models in 1D and 2D areas; also, the use of tools such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), the diffuse logic, the neural n...

description In the specialized literature, there are different ways to calculate and display flooded areas by geographical entities (rivers or streams), using mathematical and physical models in 1D and 2D areas; also, the use of tools such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), the diffuse logic, the neural networks, and the genetic algorithms, among others, has been reported. This article describes the use of Geo-inspired Natural Vectors Agents (AVNG). The AVNG is founded on the agent concept, by integrating the GIS vector model to achieve the construction of an element capable of dynamically representing a geographical entity (vector) from two behaviors: the natural and the induced (Natural Agent); thus, generating an approximation to environmental management. In order to implement the AVNG conceptual model, we studied the Colombian Amazon foothills, where flash floods in urban areas cause material disasters and loss of human lives.

En la literatura especializada se encuentran diferentes formas de calcular y visualizar áreas inundadas por entidades geográficas (ríos o quebradas), usando modelos matemáticos y físicos en 1D y 2D; también se usan herramientas como los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG), la lógica difusa, las redes neuronales, y los algoritmos genéticos, entre otros. En el presente artículo se muestra el uso de Agentes Vectores Naturales Geoinspirados (AVNG).El AVNG parte del concepto de agente, integrando el modelo vectorial GIS para lograr la construcción de un elemento capaz de representar de forma dinámica una entidad geográfica (Vector) a partir de dos comportamientos: el natural y el inducido (Agente Natural), logrando generar una aproximación a la gestión ambiental.Con el propósito de implementar el modelo conceptual del AVNG, se presenta un estudio de caso en la región del piedemonte amazónico colombiano, donde las inundaciones repentinas en las áreas urbanas causan desastres materiales y pérdidas de vidas humanas.  Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia 2017-05-02 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion investigation investigación application/pdf application/xml https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/6059 10.19053/01211129.v26.n45.2017.6059 Revista Facultad de Ingeniería; Vol. 26 No. 45 (2017); 173-186 Revista Facultad de Ingeniería; Vol. 26 Núm. 45 (2017); 173-186 2357-5328 0121-1129 eng https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/6059/5595 https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/6059/6416
