Managing Human-Leopard Conflicts in Pauri Garhwal, Uttaranchal, India using Geographical Information System and Remote Sensing

Geographical Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing have played a vital role in conservation and management of the natural resources and in enhancing our understanding of human-wildlife conflicts. Recently, there has been increase in man-animal conflicts in different parts of the country due to habitat degradation and human encroachments in forest areas. The Wildlife Institute of India has...

Elucidation of Palaeochannels in Parts of Punjab (india) Using Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System

Climatic changes and neotectonic movements in the north-western plains of India have led to the migration and abandonment of drainage systems to form a large number of palaeochannels. Palaeochannels present in the study area were extracted from final geomorphological map. These were delineated from satellite image by considering combination of various factors. These channels show a discontinuou...

Land cover land use mapping and change detection analysis using geographic information system and remote sensing

Land cover/land use categories are relevant components in land management. Understanding how land cover/land use change over time is necessary to assess the consequences of humans and natural stressors on the earth’s environment and resources. The aim of the study was to map and monitor the spatial and temporal change in land cover/land use for the periods of 1977, 1991 and 2016 and to predict ...
