The key factors of the application of the airborne remote sensing technology for humanitarian demining are the minefield indicators [1] or the indicators of mine presence and the indicators of mine absence [2] and the analytical assessment of the contamination by the landmines [3]. The basic simple concept of the minefield indicators was given in [1], where it was related to the ordinary physical features of the artificial and natural objects in the mine suspicious area. Similar concept was used in other works, while in [2] were introduced signatures of the minefield indicators and additional contextual features. The signatures depend …

Incentives to adopt energy efficient heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are moderated by regulatory regimes governing utility prices. Homeowners with different HVAC systems can expect the quality of those HVACs systems – including energy efficiency – to be reflected in higher sale prices for their property. How these premiums vary with changes in energy prices is assessed for Chicago. Comparing HVAC price premiums for gas and electricity allows comparative policy analysis, since natural gas prices were deregulated in 1993 and electricity prices were regulated until 2007. The results show how (de)regulating energy prices affects incentives to adopt green …
