A computer program, VVF, has been developed to assess the suitability of a territory as habitat for a species. It integrates several types of Habitat Suitability models into a Geographical Information System. In addition to standard GIS functions, VVF allows a user to create, modify and store new Habitat Suitability models for different species, to create Habitat Suitability maps by running Hab...

Site-specific crop management (SSCM) is one facet of precision agriculture which is helping increase production with minimal input. It has enhanced the cost-benefit scenario in crop production. Even though the SSCM is very widely used in row crop agriculture like corn, wheat, rice, soybean, etc. it has very little application in cash crops like fruit and nut. The main goal of this review paper ...

In the past decade, the programming languages C++, FORTRAN 90 and Oberon-2 allevolved from their ancestors. This invites to reflect upon the suitability ofthese modern programming languages for scientific and engineering computing. Inthe first part, we compare their primary language features, as needed byscientists and engineers. In the second part, we list some useful featuresmissing in Oberon...

The Hawaiˋi Island Crop Probability Map is an interactive desktop computer application that provides easy access to the results of a mathematical agricultural land suitability model. This project used a Maximum Entropy modeling technique to analyze information about environmental conditions at the current locations of agricultural crops on Hawaiˋi Island in order to predict the probability of s...

For the successful tree establishment, an evaluation of land suitability is necessary.In this paper, we demonstrate how to implement fuzzy classification of land suitability in aGIS environment for afforestation with Juglans regia in Gharnaveh Watershed of GolestanProvince in Iran. Juglans regia is one of the most important agro-forestry species in manyrural parts of Iran. Relevant criteria for...

Water resources suitability is one of the most important factors to sustainabilityutilization of natural potential by rangeland grazing suitability. To determine this factor inshort time, low cost and high accuracy are most challenges of experts and ranchers. Usingsuitable technique for this subject can be sustainable utilization comprising from rangelandecosystems according to its degradation ...

this research was conducted to recognize sibak-sardab watershed rangeland potentials, evaluate and determine of suitability classes for sheep grazing. in this research, we used the proposed method of fao (1992) and for information layers crossing used in geographical information system (gis). in this research, sensitivity to erosion, water resources and forage production are three basic compone...

in the way of finding economic and tolerable plant to the arid and semi-arid climatic conditions and prevent desertification in these areas, this study aims to assess agro-climatic suitability for producing saffron in east-azerbaijan province based on geographic information system (gis) spatial analysis technique. for this goal, several criteria including soil conditions, climatological indicat...

In general, books are not appropriate for all ages, so the aim of this work was to find an effective method of representing the age suitability of textual documents, making use of automatic analysis and visualization. Interviews with experts identified possible aspects of a text (such as ’is it hard to read?’) and a set of features were devised (such as linguistic complexity, story complexity, ...
