Posted on by kyrgyzisoc

27 сентября 2024 года заместитель директора ГП Тундук Рахат Жусумамбетова провела онлайн тренинг для тренеров (ТоТ) в городе Бишкек. Общее количество участников составило 16 человек.

На данном тренинге г-жа Жусумамбетова поделилась своей обширной экспертизой, дала представление об IT-архитектуре приложения «Тундук», рассказала о нюансах и различиях мобильного приложения и государственного портала. Так, тогда как приложение предоставляет в районе 60 гос.услуг, портал может предложить 160 гос.услуг. В данное время все государственные органы страны находятся на разных этапах оцифровки своих данных. Профиль Тундук «Цифровые документы» пользуется колоссальной популярностью среди населения благодаря своему удобству, тому, что документы всегда под рукой и избавляет от необходимости постоянно носить их с собой.

Тренеры задали в конце тренинга свои наиболее волнующие вопросы и получили исчерпывающие ответы от непосредственного эксперта. По итогам тренинга тренерам были выданы именные сертификаты за подписью заместителя директора Рахат Жусумамбетовой.

Кыргызстан Интернет коомчулугунун бөлүмү жана ОсОО «МедиаКыздар» «Интернет коомчулугу» коомдук фондунун каржылык колдоосу менен санариптик сабаттуулук боюнча 10 видеороликти иштеп чыгып, чыгарды. Видеороликтердин негизинде окуу постерлери даярдалып, «Түндүк» темасы боюнча окуу китебинин бөлүмү жаңыртылды, ал МИССТ тиркемесине киргизилет. Бардык материалдар кыргыз тилинде чыгарылганын белгилөө маанилүү. Учурда мамлекеттик тилде сапаттуу билимдердин жетишсиздиги байкалууда.

Видеороликтердин темалары ГП Түндүк жетекчилигинин сунуштары жана талаптарына ылайык тандалды. Бул максатта ISOC кызматкерлери жана МедиаКыздар өкүлдөрү жетекчилик менен жолугушуулар өткөрүп, жарандардан келген актуалдуу суроолорду кеңири талкуулашты. Бардык видеороликтерди аялдарнын үнү менен үн бөлүштүрүү кылынды, бул Кыргызстандагы гендердик теңдикти илгерилетүүгө да салым кошот, анткени аялдын үнү «технологиялык» деп кабыл алынат.

Аталган видеороликтер isoc.kg жана tunduk.gov.kg социалдык тармактарында биргелешип жарыяланды жана жалпы 15000ден ашык карап чыгуу топтоду. Мындан тышкары, ISOC МСУ Союзу менен директор Бектурган Исмаиловдун катышуусунда жолугушуу өткөрдү. МСУ Союзу бул видеороликтерди өз ишине кабыл алып, өзүнүн WhatsApp чаттарында таратып, ошону менен 5000ден ашуун адамга жеткиришти.

From Mountains to Data Low-Cost Weather Stations in Kyrgyzstan’s Challenging Terrain

Posted on by Aziz Soltobaev

On behalf of the research team, I am very pleased to announce that our preprint of a research paper on the use of low-cost automatic weather stations, LoRaWAN technology and various IoT sensors has been published. “From Mountains to Data: Low-Cost Weather Stations in Challenging Conditions in Kyrgyzstan” describes the selection criteria for the equipment to be deployed and provides detailed information on the installation process at the pilot sites, as well as the challenges encountered during the project.

For me, one of the main conclusions of this research project is that there has been a significant breakthrough in the quality and availability of telemetry sensors over the past five years.

Our data analysis shows that two-tier automatic weather stations demonstrate similar results (daily, decadal, monthly averages) with a high degree of accuracy (95-98%) as the first-tier AWS. The only difference is that new technologies have reduced the cost of weather stations by 10-20 times. Instead of $50,000 worth of equipment, you can use $1,000-$5,000 weather stations and get identical results (subject to regular calibration and maintenance of the equipment).

The second important takeaway is the demonstration of the potential of LoRaWAN data transmission technology for rapid deployment and monitoring of climate change, creation of geoinformation models, forecasting future trends, and taking mitigating preventive measures.

The third important takeaway is the practical application of such an approach to data transmission as Delay-Tolerant Networks. With this approach, under adverse external conditions, data can be collected and transmitted later. In the conditions of the pilot project in Kyrgyzstan, DTN showed good performance in severe frost conditions in December 2023, when the temperature dropped to -23-28 degrees. As a result, some nearby cell towers were disconnected for a while, as were some of our sensors. However, data recording continued, and when the network was restored, the data was successfully transmitted to the central server.

The full version of this article will be published in the next issue of the scientific journal Sensors. This scientific work became possible during the implementation of the research project of the Internet Society Kyrgyz Chapter with the financial support of the Internet Society Foundation.

The “Internet Society Kyrgyz Chapter” is conducting training on “Digital Tourism” in Bishkek

Posted on by Azhybek Nurlanov

The “Internet Society Kyrgyz Chapter,” with financial support from the U.S. Embassy in the Kyrgyz Republic, is conducting training sessions on “Digital Tourism” as part of a project aimed at strengthening entrepreneurship and small business development in the regions. These trainings have reached the Bishkek.

In November 2023, trainers from each of the 10 regions enhanced their knowledge in “Digital Tourism” during an offline session in Bishkek and subsequently shared their expertise with young people, girls, and guest house owners in their respective regions.

On a one-day training session was held in the Bishkek, attended by 26 local female residents, youth, and guest house owners. During the training, participants learned how to effectively use Google Maps and 2GIS, and register on tourism platforms such as Booking.com, Airbnb, and TripAdvisor.com. They also gained insights into creating accounts, managing automated hotel systems like the Travelline web PMS, and utilizing social networks such as Instagram, Facebook, and business messenger WhatsApp for their businesses.
Our goal is to empower 500 women in remote mountainous areas of the country with digital literacy, fostering economic independence and prosperity.

Announcing enrollment for training on the use of digital platforms in tourism in Issyk-Kul region

Posted on by Azhybek Nurlanov

Issyk-Kul is renowned as one of the deepest lakes globally, earning the title “The Pearl of Kyrgyzstan.” Due to its substantial water depth, the lake remains unfrozen throughout the year. Approximately 80 rivers and tributaries from the Tien Shan glaciers feed into Issyk-Kul, while the Chu River serves as its sole outlet, accumulating valuable mineral substances from these inflows.

Issyk-Kul is a beloved recreational destination for Kyrgyz people and attracts thousands of tourists annually from CIS countries and around the world. The peak tourist season at Issyk-Kul spans from mid-June to late August, with the northern shore being particularly attractive during summer. Key attractions include Cholpon-Ata town and the villages of Bosteri, Bulan-Sogottu, Chok-Tal, Sary-Oy, and Chon-Sary-Oy. Additionally, Karakol is a popular destination in summer and transforms into a ski resort attracting thousands of skiers and snowboarders during winter.
Therefore, the Internet Society Kyrgyz Chapter, with financial support from the U.S. Embassy in the Kyrgyz Republic, is initiating registration for residents of Naryn to participate in training on digital tourism. This project aims to strengthen entrepreneurship and foster small business development in the region.

If you work in the tourism industry, own a guesthouse, plan to open one, or are an expert/instructor in the tourism sector, you are invited to participate in our training.
During the first day of training, you will learn how to use Google Maps and 2GIS, and register on tourism platforms such as Booking.com, Airbnb, and TripAdvisor.com. You will also learn how to create accounts, manage automated hotel systems and the Travelline web PMS hotel management system, and effectively use social networks like Instagram, Facebook, and business messengers like WhatsApp for your business.
