Mapping the Philippines’ Mangrove Forests Using Landsat Imagery
Current, accurate, and reliable information on the areal extent and spatial distribution of mangrove forests in the Philippines is limited. Previous estimates of mangrove extent do not illustrate the spatial distribution for the entire country. This study, part of a global assessment of mangrove dynamics, mapped the spatial distribution and areal extent of the Philippines' mangroves circa 2000....
متن کاملAutomated Crop Type Mapping from Landsat Imagery
Knowledge of the spatial distribution of crop types is important for many environmental and human health research studies. These studies may require crop type maps over large geographical regions for multiple years, which can be derived only from satellite images. Interpretation of Landsat images using traditional image classification techniques is not feasible for such applications because of ...
متن کاملSoil Clay Content Mapping Using a Time Series of Landsat TM Data in Semi-Arid Lands
Clay content (fraction < 2 μm) is one of the most important soil properties. It controls soil hydraulic properties like wilting point, field capacity and saturated hydraulic conductivity, which in turn control the various fluxes of water in the unsaturated zone. In our study site, the Kairouan plain in central Tunisia, existing soil maps are neither exhaustive nor sufficiently precise for water...
متن کاملComparing the Capability of Sentinel 2 and Landsat 8 Satellite Imagery in Land Use and Land Cover Mapping Using Pixel-based and Object-based Classification Methods
Introduction: Having accurate and up-to-date information on the status of land use and land cover change is a key point to protecting natural resources, sustainable agriculture management and urban development. Preparing the land cover and land use maps with traditional methods is usually time and cost consuming. Nowadays satellite imagery provides the possibility to prepare these maps in less ...
متن کاملDust source mapping using satellite imagery and machine learning models
Predicting dust sources area and determining the affecting factors is necessary in order to prioritize management and practice deal with desertification due to wind erosion in arid areas. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the application of three machine learning models (including generalized linear model, artificial neural network, random forest) to predict the vulnerability of dust cent...
