in this study, the environmental effects of land use changes on vegetation cover and emitted land surface temperature in two urban and non-urban areas of ardakan in yazd province, iran, were studied and compared temporally, using remote sensing technique. for this purpose, contemporary land sat satellite images in 1990 and 2002 were acquired and used. then vegetation cover maps were generated u...

This study focuses on the analysis of the Landsat-5 TM + SPOT-Pan (1992), IRS-1C/D LISS + Pan (2000), and Landsat-5 TM (2006) satellite images that reflect the drastic land use/land cover changes in the Küçükçekmece Lake region, Istanbul. Landsat-5 TM satellite data dated 2006 was used for mapping water quality. A multiple regression analysis was carried out between the unitless planetary refle...

Analyzing the process of land use and cover changes during long periods of time and predicting the future changes is highly important and useful for the land use managers. In this study, the land use maps in the Ardabil plain in north-west part of Iran for four periods (1989, 1998, 2009 and 2013) are extracted and analyzed through remote sensing technique, using the land-sat satellite images. T...

nowadays, remote sensing comes under the title of management method for precision farming. for provision of the land cover and therefore land use map use must be made of satellite images. for an assessment of the type of agricultural crops it is required to have satellite images of high resolution. from specifications of the satellite images one is to produce maps with varied scales. in this re...

land cover mapping is important for many planning and management activities. today, satellite images and remote sensing techniques are extensively used in all sectors including agriculture and natural resources because they provide updated data and high analyzing abilities. in this study, in order to produce land cover map for the northern part of hamedan province , digital satellite data irsp6...
