Nowadays there is concern about pollution from oil exploitation, so that, cause severe pollution of water, air and soil poses a threat to the ecosystem and nearby towns. The Ecuadorian states alongside the state of France develop the Environmental monitoring program, Health, Social, and Petroleum in Ecuador (MONOIL). The main objective is to improve understanding and monitoring of the impacts of oil exploitation and environment in Ecuador, in terms of damage and vulnerabilities. The United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) store statistics and indicators on the impact of Environmental Pollution global information. The first stage of the project involves making MONOIL a database for the definition of scenarios of oil pollution in Ecuador as it currently lacks an integrated database, manually analyzing data separate from the websites of each organization. This project will integrate databases of WHO - ECLAC, and from standard parameterization, synchronize and automatically update and collecting historical and current information in the database MONOIL order to assess the economic and environmental impact of contamination at several sites in the Ecuadorian Amazon subsequently allowing sites to compare with unexploited oil.
CMS stands for Content Management System. There are different types of CMS, usually, refers to Web CMS (WCMS) which is a software that allows common users to manage content of web pages without necessary knowledge from web developers or databases administrators. Project of the research program "Monitoring of Oil activities in Ecuador : a cross-disciplinary approach between Environment, Health and People" better known as Monoil, needs to publish information to internet, for example, data from agreements, associations, investigators résumé, investigations, news, etc. In the way we are thinking about web sites, all these data is treated as a “content”, then, Monoil needed a WCMS. Before solutions that were implemented, demanded certain performance and managers (of contents) were not agreed with them. Thus, the project decided to create CMS Monoil application which is a made-to-order Manager Content software. This solution includes CMS Monoil Application, destined to investigators and general public, and a Module for maintaining tables of CMS, for administrators who change frequently the content of the pages; these projects are included in the main solution Monoil as a built-in software. The CMS is developed with open source technologies such as Java platform with JSF Framework, Apache Tomcat web application and PostgreSQL database. In order to carry out this project with Software Engineering standards, SCRUM was selected as the agile methodology of developing, which through Sprints, created the CMS Monoil under these agile practices.
The importance of studies of scientific research has been the basis for new discoveries, regardless of the branch or science to which it is directed, the study will always have a social benefit. The great amount of information produced is an advantage for the exchange of knowledge and the strengthening of theories and new concepts applied to real life. That is why; the present study details the importance of the development of a tool for automation and storage of bibliographic sources. This proposal is addressed to the scientific personnel that integrate the project MONOIL (Environmental Monitoring, Health, Society and Petroleum in Ecuador), which analyzes the variables that define the environmental pollution models as a result of the oil spill in Ecuador. For the development of the application is used scrum methodology, the selection of an appropriate development methodology for their development; the establishment of indicators and standards for the construction of the database; the analysis of the requirements to achieve optimal conditions of storage and classification of documents; determine appropriate search filters; and the design of the interfaces of the system making use of open source technologies, programming optimization, model controller view, with the purpose of implementing and integrating this system to the MONOIL project platform and contribute to the development of the research process benefiting not only the Scientific personnel but also to society in general.
The main objective of this research work is the analysis and development of a technological application to manage the profiles of MONOIL researchers, a bi-national program between France and Ecuador, dedicated to monitoring the environment and evaluating the consequences caused in society by the Oil pollution in Ecuador. Its importance lies in the fact that it proposes a solution to a problem associated with MONOIL, not having a web tool that facilitates knowing the people behind one of the most important tasks within the mentioned program, as is the research; this will be solved by implementing an application in the web environment. For the development of the same, in the scope of programming, there were designed forms that allow the administration of the data entered by the researcher, it was used the integrated development environment called NetBeans with connection to a database modeled in the Data Base Management System PostgreSQL. Such tools put into operation in Windows operating system. At the end of the research, it will obtain an efficient tool for the management of the resumes or profiles of the researchers that belong to MONOIL, and can be implemented in other areas or future projects related to the subject.
Variety of repositories of data base devoted to oil the world pollution, and at the same time there is the need for a data repository dedicated to the impact of the oil on the air, water, soil, species living and around the parish Dayuma located in the peripheries of the Ecuadorian Amazon, and that can accommodate certain social indicators and health provided by the ECLAC and WHO. The main objective of this project is to provide a user-friendly database to investigators of the binational project between the Governments of France / Ecuador MONOIL (environmental monitoring, health, society, and petroleum in Ecuador) developed in the open source PostgreSQL database. The information collected by reading scientific journals, books, websites and third-party software. This research will be validated with the researchers belonging to the project MONOIL in this way determines the variables used for the structure to be defined in the database. Through the use of the methodology SCRUM is achieved one of the objectives of the project which allows you to comply with the principles of normalization of a database, create services to auto feed tables automatically every day, at the same time that logical and entity-relationship models used in the structure created in a short period of time and in an orderly manner can deliver testing that are analyzed by the leader principal of the project.
The oil production in Ecuador rose considerably during the 70s, it is known as the oil boom. The country was opened to the world oil market, and earned a big ally to promote the economy, although not all is perfect, the oil exploitation has a negative impact for the operating areas, in this case the Ecuadorian Amazon.
The main objective of this research is to identify and determine the affected areas in the life system of Dayuma population through a survey to find information on site and subsequently, statistical analysis. It takes as example the population of Dayuma and shows the close link between petroleum sector and society. Using literature review on issues of oil pollution, designing a technique for gathering information that will be executed in the Dayuma parish, this place was chosen for the research due to its strategic value in the region and statistically tabulated information. This research demonstrates the terrible affectation population is exposed to, not only to their lifestyle, but also the quality of their environment. In addition, it shows the close link that exists between people and companies related to the operation, making difficult to identify oil pollution. The advantage of this research is that it counts on the participation of the Environmental Monitoring, Health, Society and Oil in Ecuador (MONOIL), which has involved several institutions in the country, such as the University of Guayaquil.
The problem of the boom of the oil extraction in different countries of the world is evident, the workings of crude oil exploitation have not been carried out following the standards that govern this activity since the wastes produced are sometimes dumped directly into the nature incurring a Non-responsible disposal or casualties such as the rupture of transport pipelines generated by the spillage of large quantities of crude oil, affecting the delicate balance of nature. It should be emphasized that in general the oil extraction work is located in complicated areas of access, which makes it difficult to carry out remediation work. This is why an analysis was carried out to identify variables involved in the air pollution process, specifically pollutants produced by Heavy metals and PAH’S (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) that are present in petroleum. This study involved the analysis of the publications of different authors (books, scientific articles, theses, reports). It was considered a population of 200 publications concerning oil pollution in the world, analyzing the study carried out by each author and determining potential air pollutants. The data were tabulated through a logistic regression analysis that allows obtaining an equation that defines the probability of air pollution.
