MONITORING URBAN GROWTH PATTERN OF DELHI USING REMOTE SENSING AND GIS TECHNIQUES

Urbanization and Quality of Urban Environment Using Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques in East Delhi-India

An explosive increase of urban population, practically in all major cities and towns, has the consequent strain on the existing system manifested in an environmental chaos. The phenomena of accelerated urbanisation is the main culprit, wherein besides bringing higher standard of living, it has also brought problems, as growth of dense and unplanned residential areas, environmental pollution, no...

Monitoring and modelling of urban sprawl using remote sensing and GIS techniques

The concentration of people in densely populated urban areas, especially in developing countries, calls for the use of monitoring systems like remote sensing. Such systems along with spatial analysis techniques like digital image processing and geographical information system (GIS) can be used for the monitoring and planning purposes as these enable the reporting of overall sprawl at a detailed...

An assessment of urban environmental issues using remote sensing and GIS techniques an integrated approach: A case study: Delhi, India

India’s cities are growing rapidly, resulting in a wide variety of environmental stresses. In this paper an integrated approach using satellite data and GIS techniques in conjunction with socio-economic data is used to assess urban environmental issues in Delhi. Delhi’s current population of 13.8 million is growing rapidly, and is projected to reach 22.4 million by 2021. The issues addressed in...

Monitoring Urban Growth and Its Environmental Impacts Using Remote Sensing

DETERMINATION OF SENSOR LOCATIONS FOR MONITORING OF ORCHARDS PARAMETERS USING REMOTE SENSING AND GIS

Optimal management of the farm and increasing production efficiency can be achieved by collecting accurate and appropriate information from the fields. The aim of this study is to determine the location of soil moisture sensors in pistachio orchards. For this purpose, initial information was obtained using satellite image processing. Then, using clustering method the information was clustered t...
