Application of Geospatial Information System (GIS) using Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) in Determining Shoreline Changes

Time variations analysis of the Hormoz strait northern shoreline by using Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS)

 Extended abstract 1- Introduction  Coastal systems are very dynamic, and their movement is relatively fast due to the collision of onshore and marine environment. The majority of the world's population is concentrated along with the coastal areas. Hormuz Strait coasts are affected by morphological variables due to the hydrodynamics of the sea and the dynamics of coastal and onshore environme...

Digital Tide-Coordinated Shoreline

The shoreline is one of the most important features on earth’s surface. It is valuable to a diverse user community. But the dynamic nature of the shorelinemakes it difŽ cult to be represented in a naturally dynamic style and to be utilized in applications.The ofŽ cially usedshoreline,for examplein nauticalcharts,is the so-calledtide-coordinatedshoreline. It is also the shoreline that makes the ...

Routing Using Geospatial Information System Analysis

A prototype least cost pipeline routing was performed using various data and GIS analysis. Ahvaz-Marun oil pipeline in south west of IRAN was chosen for development of the prototype. The Ahvaz-Marun pipeline was about 34-km and carries Ethan gas from Marun Petrochemical Company (MPC) to Ahvaz. A model was developed incorporating pipeline length, topography, geology, land use, stream, wetland, r...
