Computer Assisted Remote Sensing Training software CARST 1.0 was developed by the GeoInfo Ltd. for hands-on training in remote sensing and GIS. The CARST 1.0 is composed of the WinASEAN 5.0 Edu, Remote Sensing Notes published by the Japan Association of Remote Sensing and GIS Work Books of Prof. Shunji Murai. The WinASEAN 5.0 Edu provides basic digital image analysis functions that can handle b...

Process interactions and chain reactions, the present shift of cryospheric hazard zones due to atmospheric warming, and the potential far reach of glacier disasters make it necessary to apply modern remote sensing techniques for the assessment of glacier and permafrost hazards in highmountains. Typically, related hazard source areas are situated in remote regions, often difficult to access for ...

The three-year Municipal Infrastructure Investment Planning (MIIP) project is currently investigating investment planning and strategic asset management. The project proposes using geographic information systems (GIS) as the framework for decision support tools for municipal infrastructure managers, and more specifically, as tools to assist them to prioritize infrastructure maintenance and capi...

landscape ecology as a modern interdisciplinary science offers new concepts, theories, and methods for land evaluation and management. a main part of landscape ecology is describing patterns in the landscape and interpreting the ecological effects of these patterns on flora, fauna, flow of energy and materials. remote sensing and gis techniques have a high ability for landscape researchers to s...

Georeference is a basic function of remote sensing data processing. Geo-corrected remote sensing data is an important source data for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and other location services. Large quantity remote sensing data were produced daily by satellites and other sensors. Georeferenceing of these data is time consumable and computationally intensive. To improve efficiency of proc...

To determine the suitable indices for vegetation cover and production assessment based on the remote sensing data, simultaneous digital data with field data belonging to the spring rangeland of the Semirom-Isfahan province were analyzed. During two years of monitoring the annual, grass, forb, and shrub vegetation cover and the total production data from 86 were collected. The Global Positioning...

In this study which is based on the information taken from the map of Soil Conservation and Management Master Plan of Turkey published by the Ministry of Agriculture Forestry and Rural Affairs in 1987, all major soil groups were digitized and stored in a computer. After transferring process, the data in a GIS software have been used with different data such as main characteristics of the soils,...

This article provides an overview on the status of remote sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS) applications in developing landscapelevel environmental indicators for estuarine ecosystem assessment. These broadscape indicators are related to near-shore water quality, submergent aquatic vegetation, coastal wetlands, as well as watershed landscape structure and pattern. Slightly diffe...
