To obtain basic information for precision agriculture, spatial variability of rice growth condition was evaluated in 100m ${\times}$100m paddy field. The rice growth condition of four hundred locations in the field were investigated to analyze the spatial variability of their properties ; SPAD, plant length and tiller number. Geostatistical analysis was carried out to examine within-field spatial variability using semivariograms and kriged maps as well as descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics showed that the coefficient of variation for SPAD, plant length, and tiller number exceeded 5.70 %, suggesting a relatively high variability. Geostatistical analysis indicated a high spatial dependence for all the properties except for the second tiller number. The range of spatial dependence was about 20 m for SPAD, plant length, and tiller number. Based on the results of spatial dependence, kriged maps were prepared for the properties to analyse their spatial distribution in the field. The results reflected the history of field management. In conclusion, the need for site-specific field management and possibility of precision agriculture were demonstrated even in an almost flat paddy field.

Purpose: This study proposes a Shiny-Sigma Methods that combines the advantages of Six Sigma method and Shainin method in order to solve field defect. Each technique has advantages and disadvantages. Methods: This study proposed Shiny-Sigma by combining Six Sigma has the logical advantage of the problem solving road map and Shiny has the merits of finding the root problem from the defective phenomenon. The Six Sigma method has the disadvantage that it is difficult to solve if the number of data is small, but the Shiny method has the advantage of finding the root cause with a small number of data. Results: As a result of applying Shiny-Sigma method to the field, it has advantages of solving the problem easily and quickly than the existing Six Sigma method. It does not require a lot of statistical knowledge, which helps field workers to use it. Based on these successes L Co. company has obtained the effect of improving the production quality by applying the Shiny-Sigma method. Conclusion: The Shiny-Sigma method proved to be suitable for the production site as a result of field application. It is suitable for field workers with low statistical knowledge and is suitable for field where data is difficult to obtain. This method is not a method to solve all the problems because there are problems that can be solved according to the field problems. We hope that this method will spread to many industrial sites and this method will have a great effect on the improvement of field production quality.

The multi-disciplinary research project Strengthening Local Authorities in Risk Management (SLARIM), initiated by ITC, includes three case study cities in Asia. An important question is: what are the essential data for risk management and how to access such data. The role of common sources (e.g. census data), data derived from remote sensing (high-resolution satellite imagery, aerial photos), and data from close sensing (field observation, including mobile GIS) to acquire essential risk management data will be discussed. Special attention is given to the question of the minimum area and to disaggregating population data. A few examples are given of Kathmandu / Lalitpur, Nepal.

While commercialization of IoT technologies in the safety management sector is being promoted in terms of industrial safety of large indoor businesses, implementing a system for risk management of small outdoor work sites with frequent site movements is not actively implemented. In this paper, we propose an efficient dynamic workload balancing strategy which combined low-power, wide-bandwidth (LPWA) communication and low-power Bluetooth (BLE) communication technologies to support customized risk management alarm systems for each individual (driver/operator/manager). This study was designed to enable long-term low-power collection and transmission of traffic information in outdoor environment, as well as to implement an integrated real-time safety management system that notifies a whole field worker who does not carry a separate smart device in advance. Performance assessments of the system, including risk alerts to drivers and workers via Bluetooth communication, the speed at which critical text messages are received, and the operation of warning/lighting lamps are all well suited to field application.
