Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Use of Remote Sensing Techniques in Detecting and Predicting Forest Vegetation Change Using MODIS Satellite Data, Golestan, IranAkram Karimi, Sara Abdollahi, Hamid Reza Kabiri Balajadeh et al.It is so important to be aware of quantitative and qualitative characteristics of changes for the environment, land use planning and sustainable development. Detecting the changes in the condition of an issue is done by time difference observations. Change detection refers to the process of detecting time changes of an object through different time observations. The detection of changes by … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2018 · 8,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleContribution of Remote Sensing in the Estimation of the Populations Living in Areas with Risk of Gully Erosion in Kinshasa (D.R. Congo). Case of Selembao TownshipKayembe wa Kayembe Matthieu, Ngoy Ndombe Alain, Makanzu Imwangana Fils et al.This paper proposes a methodology combining very high spatial resolution satellite image, GIS and field surveys to estimate the number of people living in areas at (high) risk of landslides or gully erosion in Selembao (Kinshasa). It also gives their socio-economic characteristics. Results show that 185,000 out of the 314,699 inhabitants estimated in Selembao (58.3% of the population) live in … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 6 Jun 2016 · 8,612 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleHighway Traffic Incident Detection using High-Resolution Aerial Remote Sensing ImagerySeyed Mostafa Mousavi Kahaki, Md. Jan NordinProblem statement: As vehicle population increases, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) become more significant and mandatory in today’s overpopulated world. Vital problems in transportation such as mobility and safety of transportation are considered more, especially in metropolitans and highways. The main road traffic monitoring aims are: the acquisition and analysis of traffic figures, such as number of vehicles, incident detection and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDetermining Potential Sites for Runoff Water Harvesting using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems-Based Modeling in SinaiHossam H. Elewa, Atef A. Qaddah, Ayman A. El-FeelProblem statement: Sinai is increasingly suffering from an overwhelming water crisis. Runoff Water Harvesting (RWH) could be a solution for this problem. The determined promising drainage basins for RWH could be used by the decision makers to propose appropriate controlling systems to overcome the problem of water scarcity and for implementing runoff farming and rain-fed agriculture. Approach: Remote sensing, geographic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 15 Feb 2012 · 8,483 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleFreshwater Situation in Kuwait-Remote Sensing Inputs on Possibility of Artificial RechargeM. Al-Murad, S. Uddin, A. Al-DousariProblem statement: Kuwait is an arid country having per capita freshwater consumption of 485 l day-1. Almost the entire freshwater requirements are met through desalination. The water tariffs in the country are very low consequent to 60% subsidy provided by the government. The use of tertiary treated wastewater is restricted to irrigation and forestation; this leaves huge surplus that can … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleA Review: The Role of Remote Sensing in Precision AgricultureS. Liaghat, S. K. BalasundramPrecision agriculture is an emerging farm management strategy that is changing the way people farm. At present, there is an increasing commitment to reduce reliance on excessive chemical inputs in agriculture. Numerous technologies have been applied to make agricultural products safer and to lower their adverse impacts on the environment, a goal that is consistent with sustainable agriculture. Precision agriculture … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 21,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRelational GIS and Remote Sensing Database System for Al-Salt Area, JordanEyad H.R. Fadda, Maher Kakish, Emad Jalal AkawwiDue to the importance of database systems, integration between two Geomatics sciences, GIS and Remote Sensing has been made in order to support and serve various sectors in Jordan. GIS has been used to create layers that can show decision makers in a simple, easy and flexible manner. Remote Sensing will be used in creating images of how Jordan is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,951 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleWavelet Shrinkage in Noise Removal of Hyperspectral Remote Sensing DataHelmi Z.M. Shafri, Paul M. MatherIt is common in hyperspectral remote sensing studies to perform analysis based on derivative spectroscopy. However, this technique is particularly sensitive to noise in the data. Thus, noise removal is essential before any derivative analysis. Various methods of noise removal are described in the literature. A newly developed method based on the wavelet transform appears promising, though there is little … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEcological Function Evaluation of Soil and Water Conservation Measures for Power Transmission and Transformation Project Construction Based on Remote Sensing and it’s Improvement PathYang Han, Songsong Wang, Yanhui Yang et al.Assessing ecological functions is critical for determining the efficacy of soil and water conservation measures, especially during the development of power transmission and transformation projects. Efficient conservation practices are essential for reducing ecological effects and guaranteeing sustainable development. This research aims to create a resilient model, Ecological Function Prediction for Conservation Effectiveness (EFP-CE) that will classify conservation effectiveness as either … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2025 · 7,725 accessesView PDFCite
