Uses Of Geographic Information Systems And Remote Sensing To Study The Natural Resource Management Of The Red Sea Governorate, Egypt, Shrouk Galal, Fawzi Hamid Zarzoura, Mahmoud El-Mewafi

Mansoura Engineering Journal

The Red Sea governorate is rich in natural resources that create challenges for Egypt's future economy and growth. The right ways must be found to manage and discover these resources without wasting them. Remote sensing is one of the best methods used in the development of natural resources. It is based on measuring electromagnetic ray reflections from deep-seated or dispersed natural resources, and these images are processed uniquely for a variety of applications, including the detection of minerals, making land cover maps, shifting rocks, and monitoring of geological distortions. The altered rocks that existed in the study area were identified …

Application Of Remote Sensing And Geographic Information System Methods For Land Using Difference, Bangun Muljo Sukojo, Diah Susilowati

Makara Journal of Technology

Application of Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System Methods for Land Using Difference. Land using difference analysis has been done using remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) methods. Identification of land using difference was conducted using map overlaying process of 1990s (digitized scalling 1:50.000) and 1997s land using map (interpreted from Landsat TM (Thematic Mapper) Image 1997) with UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) coordinate. Image enhancement was done through histogram equalization with supervised classification devided into 7 classes: rice field, settlement, dry field, industry, pond, sport field and bush. Land using difference and river pollution BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand), COD …
