Cutting-edge remote sensing technology has a significant role for managing the natural resources as well as the any other applications about the earth observation. Crop monitoring is the one of these applications since remote sensing provides us accurate, up-to-date and cost-effective information about the crop types at the different temporal and spatial resolution. In this study, the potential...

“Fundamentals of Satellite Remote Sensing: An Environmental Approach” by Emilio Chuvieco introduces remote sensing data as a valuable source of information in understanding our environment. The second edition of this book aims to describe sources of available remote sensing data and how this data can be exploited as a key piece of information in environmental applications. Chuvieco focuses on p...

Since corn is the second most widespread crop globally and its production has an impact on all industries, from animal husbandry to sweeteners, modern agriculture meets task of preserving yield quality detecting stress. Application remote sensing techniques enabled more efficient monitoring due ability cover large areas perform non-destructive non-invasive measurements. By using vegetation indi...

Satellite remote sensing technologies have a high potential in applications for evaluating land conditions and can facilitate optimized planning agricultural sectors. However, misinformed selection decisions limit crop yields increase production-related costs to farmers. Therefore, the purpose of this research was develop suitability assessment system using satellite sensing-derived soil-vegeta...

Recent interest in use of satellite remote sensing for environmental compliance and remediation assessment has been heightened by growing policy requirements and the need to provide more rapid and efficient monitoring and enforcement mechanisms. However, remote sensing solutions are attractive only to the extent that they can deliver environmentally relevant information in a meaningful and time...

abstract decadal changes in land use/land cover for balachaur watershed in nawanshahar district, punjab, india were studied using black and white aerial photographs for march 1984 on approximately 1:20,000 scale and multidate geocoded false colour composites (fcc) of irs-1d liss-iii on 1:50,000 scale for march 2002, september 2002, and may 2003 and interpreted visually to prepare land use/land ...

the aim of this study is to determine the area affected by dust storms in different wind speeds using satelliteimages. in the first step, windy conditions of the sistan plain were analyzed using wind statistics data. next, fivestormy days of zabol city, indicating different wind speeds and horizontal visibilities during those storms, wereselected. then, high temporal resolution modis data was u...

soil surfaces in arid and semi-arid lands often lack photoautotrophic life but are covered by communities of soil surface covering organisms able to tolerate dehydration, and thus adapted to aridity. one important objective of multi-spectral remote sensing instruments is the detection of the optical characteristics of the earth’s surface using high spectral resolution bands. in this study aster...
