چکیده
Abstract Extensive mining operations, deforestation, jhumming, and soil erosion coupled with population stress in the study area have put an adverse effect on its forest resources. This investigates transition cover classes fragmentation Jaiñtia Hills District of Meghalaya (India). Satellite data (multispectral images from Landsat 5 8) for 1995, 2001, 2007, 2015 were classified using supervised classification method. Landscape metrics calculated FRAGSTATS. The overall accuracy was found to be 87.50% (1995), (2001), 85.00% (2007) 91.67% (2015), respectively. results revealed increase dense patch number 1995 2007. Additionally, a decrease non-forest patches 2001 observed which further suggests fragmentation. It has been reported that 8.13% increased 19.47% non-forested areas decreased during period. Overall, this highlights changes distribution could aid policy makers adopt appropriate conservation strategies.

متن کاملEarth Observation, Spatial Data Quality, and Neglected Tropical Diseases
Earth observation (EO) is the use of remote sensing and in situ observations to gather data on the environment. It finds increasing application in the study of environmentally modulated neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). Obtaining and assuring the quality of the relevant spatially and temporally indexed EO data remain challenges. Our objective was to review the Earth observation products curre...
