Remote Sensing And Gis Based Approach To Evaluate The Impact Of Stone Quarrying And Crushing Activities On Land Resources, R. S. Chaurasia, S. N. Mohapatra
Journal of Sustainable Mining
The land is one of the most treasures to support life, like food, fibre, medicine, and minerals, etc. Stone quarrying is one of the key elements which supports socio-economic development and industrial expansion. RS and GIS play an important role in environmental assessment to monitor the stone quarries and related activities for time to time. The present study was carried out to evaluate the impact of stone quarrying and crushing activities (SQCA) on land resources. Therefore, matrix change analysis of 2021, 2015, 2008 and 2003 were used for change detection. High-resolution Google Earth Pro images were used for the assessment …
