TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight the importance of Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and satellite images for assessment of drainage and extraction of their relative parameters for the Orr watershed Ashok Nagar district, M.P., India.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed to detect LULC changes and investigate the major factors that have caused these changes, such as rapid urban growth, poorly planned infrastructural development and a devastating earthquake event.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of a study undertaken to measure the urban sprawl in Dehradun city, India through cellular automata CA-Markov model are presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Geographical Information System (GIS)-based plan was used to assess the possibility and performance of a canola-soybean rotation in Golestan province, one of the most important agricultural production regions of Iran.

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-automated approach using Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) satellite data and associated vegetation indices to extract annual cropping pattern in Muzaffarpur district of Bihar, India at a fine scale (1:50,000).

TL;DR: In this paper, a sustainable agricultural spatial model (SASM) was developed using Arc GIS 10 to identify and classify the area, according to sustainability degree of agricultural utilization, where the factors of productivity, security, protection, economic viability, and social acceptability in the different mapping units were assessed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) to quantify soil degradation risk in some soils of the Northern Nile Delta was assessed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the main factors affecting landslide occurrence including slope, distance from faults, lithology, elevation and precipitation were prepared and digitized, by using interpretation of aerial photos and satellite images and field views.

TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-automated approach based on a wide variety of digital image processing for mapping the major geomorphological landforms of the lake on a medium scale of 1:250,000.

TL;DR: The SWAT model shows the sediment yield to be highest in April and May months with a total sediment loading of about 51.27 T/HA, and this model can be utilized as a potential tool for water resource management of the Satluj basin.

TL;DR: It is concluded that a triangulated irregular network technique could be used for real-time digital terrain modelling applications and was the fastest interpolation technique where only 0.35 s is needed to create a model with 5 m grid size.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the spectral properties of the water at the outlets of the Nile Delta in conjunction with a water quality multi-probe sensor for water quality characterization.

TL;DR: In this paper, six enhanced image sharpening techniques were assessed: the disaggregation procedure for radiometric surface temperatures (T s HARP ), the Dry Edge Quadratic Function, the Difference of Edges (Ts ∗ DL ), and three models supported by the relationship of surface temperature and water stress of vegetation (Normalised Difference Water Index, Normalised Difference Infrared Index and Soil wetness index).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Landsat TM images of the year 2000 and 2009 to analyze the changes in Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) data employing compound interest formula.

TL;DR: A Decision Support System (DSS) for solving the CVRP that integrates a Geographical Information System (GIS) enriched by a Tabu search (TS) module is developed and applied on a large-sized real case.

TL;DR: In this article, a land cover map of North Sinai was produced based on the FAO-Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) of 2004, which can be used to analyze spatial and temporal land cover variability in the study area.

TL;DR: In this article, remotely sensed images have been used for the assessment of land cover changes in the Al-Monib island as part of an ongoing sustainable development of this island, where different cues have been extracted such as IHS or PCA and texture derived from color image.

TL;DR: In this article, an extended Kalman filter is used for the estimation of spacecraft orbital and attitude states, which is suitable for the next Egyptian scientific satellite, EGYPTSAT-2.

TL;DR: Three of the most famous authentication protocols for mobile satellite communication system are analyzed from the security viewpoint of data desynchronization attack, based on strand spaces testing model.
