Urban growth identification, quantification, and the knowledge of rate and trends of growth helps in determining the changes associated with land use and land cover properties and in regional planning with better infrastructure in environmentally sound way. Spatial and temporal technologies such as Remote Sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS) are very ...

LS is a very important factor in erosion evaluation. Slope gradient and slope length is used to calculate LS factor. However a major limitation is the difficulty in extracting the LS factor at regional landscape scales. The geographic information systembased (GIS-based) methods which have been developed for estimating the slope length for USLE and RUSLE model also have limitations. he unit cont...

Background and Aim: High concentrations of particulate matter-25 (PM2.5) have been the cause of the unhealthiest days in Tehran, Iran in recent years. This study was conducted with the aim of the spatio-temporal analysis of traffic volume and its relationship with PM2.5 pollutant concentrations in Tehran metropolis, Tehran during 2015-2018, using the Geographic Information System (GIS). Materi...

This paper analyses determinants of agricultural land prices in Sweden with a particular focus on location-specific factors. An asset-pricing model is used to decompose agricultural land prices into expected returns from land in its current agricultural use and expected returns from its potential use. The model is estimated in a cross regional context where explanatory factors relate to regiona...

At present it is common to use geographic information system (GIS) applications to assess runoff generation. One of these GIS-based tools to generate maps of dominant runoff processes is the so called GIS-DRP approach. The tool, which has been developed mainly based on agricultural areas, uses commonly available input data like a digital elevation model (DEM), geological information as well as ...
