Forestry institutions are currently gradually introducing GIS technologies. With the use of technology and digital data processing, Kazakh Enterprise is doing a lot work to collect on First Forest Fund, accounting districts, etc., transfer collected institutions, commissioning.At same time, electronic media replacing old paper tablets. Geographic information systems (GIS) key element effective ...

the primary objective of the current study is to produce karstification potentiality maps in northeast of khuzestan province, iran, using both fuzzy logic and ahp models as an additional tool in hydrogeological research. geographic information systems (gis) and remote sensing (rs) are used to create two maps depicting the development of the karstification, consisting of five classes, showing th...

Remote sensing, the science of obtaining information via noncontact recording, has swept the fields of ecology, biodiversity and conservation (EBC). Several quality review papers have contributed to this field. However, these papers often discuss the issues from the standpoint of an ecologist or a biodiversity specialist. This review focuses on the spaceborne remote sensing of EBC from the pers...

Remote sensing techniques and spatial data analysis through Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have been jointly applied in a mineral exploration context to identify gold-rich potential areas in SE Spain. Results conŽ rm the usefulness of this integrated methodological approach as an eVective tool to assess mineral potential in the studied region. Satellite and airborne image analysis have oV...

Landslides are amongst the most damaging natural hazards in the mountainous terrain like Himalaya. The study of landslides has drawn worldwide attention mainly due to increasing awareness of socio-economic impacts of landslides. Remote sensing images provide many useful land use information to combine in a GIS environment with other spatial factors influencing the occurrence of landslide. The l...

Change detection is the measure of the distinct data framework and thematic change information that can guide to more tangible insights into underlying process involving land cover and land use changes than the information obtained from continuous change. Digital change detection is the process that helps in determining the changes associated with landuse and land cover properties with referenc...

This contribution provides an overview of some of the recent research in environmental informatics involving spatio-temporal data processing. Implementation of cloud computing to teach Geographic Information System (GIS) and spatial sciences is described in the framework of a project focused on innovation of the GIS Laboratory. The new age of cloud computing is demonstrated on research issues d...

Data is the core of Geographical Information System (GIS). Collecting and updating geographically referenced and descriptive data is necessary for GISs. Ignoring the updating process will obviously decrease the usefulness of GIS; therefore, GIS databases must be updated to make better use. There are different methods to collect and update GIS data, for example, by field survey, remote sensing, ...

As remote sensing and geographical information systems (GIS) technologies become more commonplace in society, there are increasing calls for the use of such technologies to benefit local communities. However, a gap continues to exist between the priorities of GIS research specialists, commercial technology providers, and the public (including civic and county agencies and others implementing lo...
