Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word 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 accessEvery word 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 accessIn the keywordsThe Roles of Some Antecedents of Broadband User Behavioural Intention among Students in the Rural Areas through PLS-SEMIshola D. Muraina, Wan Rozaini Bt Sheik Osman, Azizah AhmadThe insufficient broadband enabled-services in the rural areas have been identified among the reasons that prolong the behaviour of rural dwellers on the use of low-band internet while government agencies have started initiations to increase the use of broadband in the rural area. However, previous studies have failed to identify the roles played by antecedents of broadband user behavioural intention … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 11 Nov 2015 · 6,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeep Learning and Image Analytics for Forest Land Management: Classification, and Object DetectionDevam Dixit, Aditya Bhavsar, Shreyas Jani, Nilesh YadavRapid urbanization and industrialization have contributed to deforestation which has led to a severe degradation of the environment and biodiversity loss. Traditional field survey methods are not applicable in the monitoring of large forest areas due to the fact that such methods are manual, costly and time consuming as well as subject to human error. The current methods of remote … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 26 Mar 2026 · 1,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Impact of Topography on Flooding in Owerri North, Imo State, Nigeria Using GIS and Remote Sensing TechniquesSylvanus Ibeabuchi IroThe aim of this study is to analyze the topographical contribution to floods in Owerri, North Imo State, Nigeria. Research was carried out to ascertain whether topographical elements played a role in the flooding in specific areas of Owerri North. As a result, very little research has looked at the effects of topography on flooding. Thus, there is a barrier … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2025 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimized Wireless Sensor Network Clustering Using a Hybrid Firefly–Bat Algorithm (HFBA)J. Jegan, Senthil kumar P, S. Saravanakumar et al.Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are composed of numerous sensor nodes that collaborate to observe and evaluate various environmental parameters, transmitting the data to a central base station. Each node is equipped with a unique transmitter, receiver, and processor to facilitate sensing, processing, and communication. These networks are often installed in extremely remote and inaccessible areas. A significant challenge arises from … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 5 · 19 May 2026 · 1,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Soil Loss Using GIS and RUSLE Model in Bakiya River Basin (BRB), Central NepalSujan Bista, Naresh Kazi Tamrakar, Kishor Rimal, Arju BhattaraiSoil erosion is the major geological hazard in the fragile landscape of Sub-Himalaya. This study examines the susceptibility of the Bakiya River Basin (BRB) in Central Nepal to soil erosion because of its steep topography, fragile geology, the impact of intense monsoon rainfall, and the lack of a direct monitoring mechanism available for rainfall-runoff. This study examines the spatial variations … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2025 · 3,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandslide Susceptibility Mapping with GIS in Nagi Dada Area of Panauti Municipality, Kavrepalanchwok District: A Comparison Between AHP and FR MethodArju Bhattarai, HimLal Shrestha, Asim Timalsina et al.Landslide Susceptibility Maps (LSM) are useful for both development planning and disaster management. Currently, LSMs are primarily created using GIS and remote sensing techniques. Landslide susceptibility mapping relies heavily on selecting and weighting causative elements based on their impact on slope instability. GIS is useful for calculating static parameters such as slope and aspect, as well as generating landslide susceptibility … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 22 Aug 2024 · 7,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdafruit IO Based Smart Irrigation System using MQTT Protocol for Urban FarmingDevesh Mishra, Prakhar Yadav, Vandana Yadav et al.Freshwater is needed for irrigation and nutrient supply to plants to make up for the lack of rainfall. Agricultural activities consume more than 70% of the available freshwater. This emphasizes the importance of responsible management of water for irrigation using smart Internet of Things (IoT) based agricultural practices combined with irrigation-related technologies The purpose of this research article is to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 5 · 23 May 2022 · 6,894 accessesView PDFCite
