The new availability of very high spatial resolution satellite images offers a mapping potential for scales reaching from 1: 5000 to 1: 10000. The urban man-made objects such as buildings can be delimited. However problems and difficulties can appear, particularly in the high local variance environment and spectral signatures disturbances context. The extraction methods should be adapted to the...

Satellite data have been used for temperature modeling both in urban areas and water. This paperstudies viability of ASTER satellite images that provide high spatial and spectral resolution to model watersurface temperature, as a fundamental water quality parameter. This study is focused on Dez dam reservoirresiding in Khuzestan province, south west of Iran. After the image corrections required...

nowadays, remote sensing comes under the title of management method for precision farming. for provision of the land cover and therefore land use map use must be made of satellite images. for an assessment of the type of agricultural crops it is required to have satellite images of high resolution. from specifications of the satellite images one is to produce maps with varied scales. in this re...

Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data are effective and efficient for monitoring urban dynamics such as urban cover change and thermal anomalies, but the spatial resolution provided by MODIS data is 500 m (for most of its shorter spectral bands), which results in difficulty in detecting subtle spatial variations within a coarse pixel—especially for a fast-growing city. Give...

   Current study monitored Electerical Conductivity (EC) as soil salinity index and Organic Matter (OM) in the area of Harat in Yazd, Iran, through remote sensing technology with high spatial and spectral resolution. The images were selected from IRS, LISS III satellites between the years 2008 and 2012. After preprocessing and analyzing the images, the relationship between parameters of (EC) an...

There are a great deal of obvious issues about effects of scale and scaling conversion that need to be solved for agricultural condition monitoring using remote sensing. In this paper, a serial of researches about them were performed so as to service practical requirements of agricultural condition remote sensing monitoring, especially in the dynamic monitoring of crops growth using remote sens...
