risk assessment of vegetation degradation using gis

the entire land in the southern iran faces problems arising out of various types of land degradation, of which the vegetation type forms one of the major ones. the payab basin (522,470 ha), which covers the lower reaches of mond river, was chosen for a test risk assessment of this type. the different kinds of data for indicators of vegetation degradation were taken from the records and publishe...

Risk assessment of a dam-break using GIS technology.

Flood disasters cause massive loss of human lives and immense damage to the infrastructure and economic activities, not only in Turkey but also all over the world. Governments consider several long-term and short-term precautions for flood control. The numerical simulation of dam-break problems could be accomplished with geographic information systems and innovation maps. Spread of the flood wa...

GIS-based Framework for Wildfire Risk Assessment

Urban network risk assessment using Fuzzy-AHP and TOPSIS in GIS environment

Risk assessment of urban network using traffic indicators determines vulnerable links with high danger of traffic incidents. Thus Determination of an appropriate methodology remains a big challenge to achieve this objective. This paper proposed a methodology based on data fusion concept using Fuzzy-AHP and TOPSIS to achieve this aim. The proposed methodology tries to overcome two main problems,...

Qualitative Risk Assessment of Gas Pipelines by Using of Indexing System Method in GIS environment

Nowadays the urbanization is developing rapidly, and it leads to growing demand for gas; which resulted in denser pipeline network, by the following increase in the pipeline network congestion, accidents  will become inevitable. So Pipelines are a remarkable source of hazard for their adjacent society. Usually Indexing system method is used for pipe line risk assessment. This method assesses ri...
