The geonet's outlet must be free draining at all times even in winter under freezing conditions. Notwithstanding the above concerns, geonets are very impressive with respect to their flow-rate capability, ease of construction, savings in airspace, and overall economy in many facilities where drainage must be accommodated.
Geonet may refer to: Geosynthetic, products used to solve civil engineering problems; GEOnet Names Server, a database of place names used outside of the United States; GeoNet (email host), an early international on-line services network; GeoNet (New Zealand), a geological hazards monitoring service in New Zealand run by GNS Science
The GEOnet Names Server (GNS), sometimes also referred to in official documentation as Geographic Names Data [1] or geonames [2] in domain and email addresses, is a service that provides access to the United States National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's (NGA) and the US Board on Geographic Names's (BGN) database of geographic feature names and locations for locations outside the US.
The core of the GeoNames database is derived from official public sources, whose quality may vary. Through a wiki interface, users can manually edit and enhance the database by correcting names, updating locations, adding new features, and refining existing entries [5]
Geotextiles form one of the two largest groups of geosynthetics. They are textiles consisting of synthetic fibers rather than natural ones such as cotton, wool, or silk.
GeoNet is a natural hazards monitoring system in New Zealand that monitors earthquakes, large landslides, volcanoes, tsunami, and movement of land.Earthquakes and other natural hazards are automatically listed on the GeoNet website and app, and app users are given notifications to be warned about natural hazards.
Geotextile-geonet composites [ edit ] When a geotextile is used on one or both sides of a geonet , the separation and filtration functions are always satisfied, but the drainage function is vastly improved in comparison to geotextiles by themselves.
GeoNet was an early international online services network built using microcomputers. Based on the software developed in Germany by GeoNet Systems GmbH in the early 1980s, and completed in the early 1990s, it was one of the first networks to offer a comprehensive online services platform, and was early to market with a number of innovations.
