Remotely sensed (RS) imagery is increasingly being adopted in investigations and applications outside of traditional land-use land-cover change (LUCC) studies. This is due to the increased awareness by governments, NGOs and Industry that earth observation data provide important and useful spatial and temporal information that can be used to make better decisions, design policies and address pro...

Historical aerial images are important to retain past ground surface information. The land-use land-cover change in the past can be identified using historical aerial images. Automatic historical image registration and stitching is essential because the historical image pose information was usually lost. In this study, the Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) algorithm was used for feature ...

abstract recognition of effective factors on landslide occurrence and so high and low hazard region is one of the most important and necessary works for mitigation of landslide damages. in this study, from all of the effective factors on landslide occurrence, land use changes and road construction, into a parts of tadjan watershed with area about 708.08 square kilometers in south of sari, was s...

Arazi kullanım/örtüsü sınıflandırmalarının yapılarak şehirlerin bilgilerinin takip edilmesi ve değişimlerinin analiz edilmesi, arazilerin doğru amaçla kullanılması çevresel sürdürülebilirlik adına oldukça önemlidir. Bu sınıflandırmalar yapılırken diğer çalışmalarla tutarlılık kıyas yapabilme açısından uluslararası standartlaşmış sınıflandırma yöntemleri gerekmektedir. çalışmada CORINE veri taba...

Statewide land cover change detection analysis provides a useful tool for conservation planning and environmental monitoring and addresses issues of habitat fragmentation and urban sprawl. Furthermore, using historical and recent land cover data offers two perspectives on landscape dynamics. To this end, the first alliance level land cover map of Kansas recently completed by the KARS Program wa...
