Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleUtilizing Geographic Information System for Prediction of Soil Erosion in Sono Sragen Catchment AreaMuhammad Mukhlisin, SukocoProblem statement: Embung is a small dam created by manmade lakes and used to catch water during rainy season for an irrigation source. In Sragen area, Embung Sono is one of around twenty embung that used to catch rain water for irrigation. Soil erosions in catchment area are potential to reduce water capacity of the embung. Although many embung have … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 7,795 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAnalysis of Areas Susceptible to Gullies in Ideato South Local Government Area of Nigeria Using Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing TechnologySylvanus IroGully erosion is a critical environmental hazard in Southeastern Nigeria, threatening agricultural productivity, infrastructure, and communal safety. This study provides a spatially explicit assessment of gully erosion susceptibility in Ideato South Local Government Area (LGA), Imo State, using an integrated Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing framework. The methodology employed a multi-criteria decision-making approach, utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Jul 2026 · 1,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDeveloping a Geographic Information System-Based Assessment Model for Sustainable Metropolitan Development: The Case of the Semarang Metropolitan Region, IndonesiaImam Buchori, Agung Sugiri, Sudharto P Hadi et al.Spatial dynamics of metropolitan development are becoming important issues in sustainable development. In developing countries like Indonesia, the growth of metropolitan regions is often followed by problems of unsustainability. Therefore, a framework of assessment for metropolitan development can be useful as an early means of identifying any untoward aspects. This study aims to develop an assessment system that is easily … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 May 2015 · 7,809 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleGeomorphology Using Geographic Information System and Globel MapperEmad AkawwiAn effort has been made to evaluate drainage morphometry and its influence on landform processes, geology and erosion characteristics in Jordan Valley and surrounding area. Geological maps 1:50,000 scale and the professional Google Earth images were used for analysis of various morphometric, lithological and landform characteristics of Jordan Valley basin. Morphometric analysis was carried out at sub basin level using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Sep 2013 · 7,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleE-RESOURCES GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM SYSTEM FOR MILITARY OPERATIONAditya Kurniawan, Khaterini Mulyono, Mellyna, Stevan GerardoNowadays, the barometer of the strength of a country is a military force that is owned by the state. To produce a good military force in a country, it would require an easy, fast and accurate military resource management. This study utilized geographic data as a reference for the location of the logistics resources to help simplify the management of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,888 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 titleGeographic Information System-Allocation Model for Forest Path: A Case Study in Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve, MalaysiaI. Mohd Hasmadi, H. Z. Pakhriazad, F. S. MohamadProblem statement: Forest road planning requires a host of information, particularly the availability of spatial and non-spatial data. The requirement of a planning system or tools to gather, integrate and manipulate all data is essential. The ability of Geographic Information System (GIS) to integrate such massive information and develop a spatial model of earth features will lead to time and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleWater Resource Evaluation and Identifying Groundwater Potential Zones in Arid area using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information SystemM.M. Kamruzzaman, Saad Awadh Alanazi, Madallah Alruwaili et al.Groundwater resource is the main conventional source of fresh water all over the world. However, recent revelations indicated that the shortage of water resources remains the main challenge for the arid areas. In this regard, identifying groundwater potential zones or areas can help to improve the availability of fresh water and effective management of groundwater in arid areas. This work … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 3 Mar 2020 · 8,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDEVELOPMENT OF OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE TECHNIQUE IN WEB-BASED GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT USING OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARENik Mohd Ramli Nik Yusoff, Helmi Zulhaidi Mohd Shafri, Ratnasamy Muniandy, Islam Mohammad WaliThe shortest path routing is one of the well-known network analysis techniques implemented in road management systems. Pg Routing as an extension of Postgre SQL/Post GIS database is an open source library that implements the Dijkstra shortest path algorithm. However, the functionality to avoid obstacles in that analysis is still limited. Therefore, this study was conducted to enable obstacle avoidance … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 16 Jun 2014 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRock Slopes Failure Susceptibility Analysis: From Remote Sensing Measurements to Geographic Information System Raster ModulesFilipello Andrea, Giuliani Andrea, Mandrone GiuseppeProblem statement: Two important step can be recognised in the rockfall analysis: the potential failure detection and the run out simulation.
