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...

Soil organic matter has positive consequences eht rof quality and productivityof soil and also environment, agricultural and biological sustainability and conservation ofbiodiversity and soil. Organic matter plays an important role in the physical and chemicalprocesses of soil and thus, it is of a great effect on the spectral characteristics of soil. Thisstudy was done in order to develop the m...

The present study demonstrates the application of remote sensing for the estimation of areas corresponding to crop and forest lands covered in the district of Aurangabad, (Maharashtra), India. The data acquired by IRS-P6 Advanced Wide Field Sensors (AWiFS) having 56m spatial resolution for the months of October & December 2012 which covered complete study areas with its swath of 740Km has been ...

Since 1999, The National Commission for the Knowledge and Use of Biodiversity (CONABIO) contributes to combating Forest Fires in Mexico and Central America, by means of CONABIO ́s program for hot spot detection using remote sensing techniques. Currently the program is using Terra/Aqua-MODIS satellite images between six and eight times a day to detect hot spots which might be considered as possib...

Resourcesat-1 satellite offers a unique opportunity of simultaneous observations at three different spatial scales through LISSIV, LISS-III (improved LISS-III) and AWiFS sensors from a common platform. The sensors have enhanced capabilities in terms of spectral, spatial and radiometric resolution as compared to earlier Indian Remote sensing Satellite sensors. This paper summarizes the results o...
