Elevation Contour Analysis and Water body Extraction for Finding Water Scarcity Locations using DEM
نویسندگان
چکیده
The presents study was aimed to create new methods for extraction and analysis of land elevation contour lines, automatic extraction of water bodies (river basins and lakes), from the digital elevation models (DEM) of a test area. And extraction of villages which are fell under critical water scarcity regions for agriculture and drinking water with respect to their elevation data and available natural water resources.

The purpose of this study is to accurately measure the watershed potential for constructing rainwater harvesting structures. To carry out this research, the DEM digital-elevation model layer was used to prepare slope, hydrological soil groups and land use maps in the Arc GIS 10.3 software. The drainage density map was prepared by combining the DEM layer, topographic map, drainage density and hy...
متن کاملTechnical note: Water conservation in Kuwait: A fuzzy analysis approach
In an arid country like Kuwait with harsh and hot climate conditions, the scarcity of fresh water supplies presents a serious threat to sustainable socio-economic development and growth. Kuwait is an oil rich country with capital abundance and coastal locations enabled it to build desalination plants for fresh water production that is sold to the customers at highly subsidized prices. However, ...
متن کاملInundation Extent and Flood Frequency Mapping Using LANDSAT Imagery and Digital Elevation Models
We modeled the extent of inundation around Poyang Lake, China using 13 Landsat images and two digital elevation models (DEMs). Boundaries of the observed inundation extents were (a) labeled with lake-level measurements taken at a representative hydrological station and (b) interpolated to create a Water Line DEM (WL-DEM) that was used to map inundation frequency. A 30 m contour-based DEM produc...
متن کاملApproach for Reusing the Flow of El Rahawy Drain at the Qattara Depression
Egypt is facing a water scarcity problem; it is a must to reuse drainage water to substitute this deficit between supply and demand. Also the drainage water is polluted and needs to be purified before reusing it. Therefore an approach is proposed herein to reuse the flow discharge of El Rahawy Drain that drains its water to Rosetta Branch (the second most polluted drain in Egypt) and convey its...
