The document discusses technologies for autonomous communities and sustainable energy solutions. It presents several high-efficiency solar panel technologies that can achieve world-record efficiencies of 40.7% using multi-junction cells. However, it argues that the energy problem is better solved not through more high-tech solutions but by better distributing simple, sustainable technologies through production by the masses and sharing knowledge.

Décroissance 2012
Décroissance 2012Francis PoissonThe document discusses alternatives to industrialization and mass production, advocating for "production by the masses" through approaches like open source hardware, Fab Labs, and do-it-yourself communities. It argues that big industry is addicted to constant growth, which is incompatible with sustainability, and proposes sharing knowledge of simple, sustainable technologies as a better approach to meet needs.
Service, Performance or Goods by Walter Stahel
Service, Performance or Goods by Walter StahelCoöperatie Amsterdam Resilience Collective (Coop ARC)1) A circular economy sells functional services and performance rather than goods, decoupling economic growth from resource consumption while increasing regional jobs.
2) The business model for a circular economy is based on optimizing the use of existing stock through reuse and remanufacturing in small local loops, rather than prioritizing the production of new goods in large global supply chains.
3) Sustainable taxation policies that do not tax labor and do tax the consumption of non-renewable resources can create incentives for the circular economy by making reuse and remanufacturing more profitable and competitive compared to linear take-make-waste production models.
Circular governance emf
Circular governance emf Douwe Jan JoustraThis document discusses the concepts of circular economy. It covers three key aspects: innovation, symbiosis/interdependence, and governance. For innovation, it notes circular economy requires redesigning systems and processes with a focus on performance and reuse over ownership. For symbiosis, it emphasizes learning from nature's nutrient cycles and cooperation over competition. For governance, it proposes "condition steering" through goals, incentives, and facilitating new economic models rather than command-and-control laws.

Smarter Aviation Data Management: Lessons from Swedavia Airports and Sweco
Smarter Aviation Data Management: Lessons from Swedavia Airports and SwecoSafe SoftwareManaging airport and airspace data is no small task, especially when you’re expected to deliver it in AIXM format without spending a fortune on specialized tools. But what if there was a smarter, more affordable way?
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how Sweco partnered with Swedavia, the Swedish airport operator, to solve this challenge using FME and Esri.
Learn how they built automated workflows to manage periodic updates, merge airspace data, and support data extracts – all while meeting strict government reporting requirements to the Civil Aviation Administration of Sweden.
Even better? Swedavia built custom services and applications that use the FME Flow REST API to trigger jobs and retrieve results – streamlining tasks like securing the quality of new surveyor data, creating permdelta and baseline representations in the AIS schema, and generating AIXM extracts from their AIS data.
To conclude, FME expert Dean Hintz will walk through a GeoBorders reading workflow and highlight recent enhancements to FME’s AIXM (Aeronautical Information Exchange Model) processing and interpretation capabilities.
Discover how airports like Swedavia are harnessing the power of FME to simplify aviation data management, and how you can too.

Connecting Data and Intelligence: The Role of FME in Machine Learning
Connecting Data and Intelligence: The Role of FME in Machine LearningSafe SoftwareIn this presentation, we want to explore powerful data integration and preparation for Machine Learning. FME is known for its ability to manipulate and transform geospatial data, connecting diverse data sources into efficient and automated workflows. By integrating FME with Machine Learning techniques, it is possible to transform raw data into valuable insights faster and more accurately, enabling intelligent analysis and data-driven decision making.

- 19. Production by the masses Do it yourself Urban Agriculture Software Hardware (Tangible material)
- 20. Production by the masses Do it yourself ● A well-installed community in USA and in the world through magazines, blogs, faires. ● Based on an ethic of self- sufficiency, to the idea that ones can make anything he wants on itself. ● Knowledge-sharing oriented community
- 21. Production by the masses Fabrication Laboratory (Fablab) ● Iniciated by MIT, it has borned in the idea of equiping a space with the tools to do “almost anything” ● Tools that go from manual tools to 3D printers International Network ●
- 22. Production by the masses Open Source Hardware “Open Source Hardware (OSHW) is a term for tangible artifacts -- machines, devices, or other physical things -- whose design has been released to the public in such a way that anyone can make, modify, distribute, and use those things.“

- 25. Production by the masses Sharing knowledge
- 26. A better sharing of knowledge • Founded by EF Schumacher in 1996 • Mission: To contribute to poor people’s wellbeing, using technology to challenge poverty by: - Building the capabilities of poor men and women, - Improving their access to technical options and knowledge, - And working with them to influence social, economic and institutional systems for innovation and the use of technology.
- 27. A better sharing of knowledge
- 28. A better sharing of knowledge Micro-Hydro Pipe bending machine
- 29. A better sharing of knowledge Through sharing of technology knowledge: • Help Global South to tackle poverty with an access to appropriate technology • Lead Global North from an industrialized economy to an artisan sustainable production system
