the reflectance spectrum of green leaves is considerably affected by their biochemical and biophysical properties. it is possible to extract biochemical information from a continuous vegetation spectrum produced using hyperspectral sensors. the numerous absorption features present in the vegetation spectrum carry a considerable amount of information related to the content and the structure of t...

the objective of this research was to determine the best model and compare performances in terms of producing landuse maps from six supervised classification algorithms. as a result, different algorithms such as the minimum distance ofmean (mdm), mahalanobis distance (md), maximum likelihood (ml), artificial neural network (ann), spectral anglemapper (sam), and support vector machine (svm) were...

the drought caused a series of effects on many sectors of economy, especially natural resources. during two last decades, iran has suffered from several severe to extreme agricultural droughts which caused significant decreases in rangeland and agriculture yields. this paper discusses the detection of agricultural drought severity over the rangelands of markazi province between 2000 and 2014 us...

To determine the suitable indices for vegetation cover and production assessment based on the remote sensing data, simultaneous digital data with field data belonging to the spring rangeland of the Semirom-Isfahan province were analyzed. During two years of monitoring the annual, grass, forb, and shrub vegetation cover and the total production data from 86 were collected. The Global Positioning...

Based on remote sensing images, the panoramic views of land coverage distribution across a large geographic area can be accessed conveniently. Remote sensing monitoring system of land coverage change in mining area, which is a complex information system based on spatial database to manage multi-source heterogeneous data, was proposed in this article. The system structure, function and developme...
