Today, climate change imposes enormous challenges on a global scale. The interactions of the balances between need for development, population growth, massive urbanization generate negative impact presence these changes. One direct consequences changes is phenomenon flash floods, that hit city Jeddah (city located in west Saudi Arabia) twice, one 2009 and other 2011, causing significant human material damage. Floods are considered as result combination extreme weather hydrological phenomena;...
It is well-known that, when dealing with density of population, most the proposed maps choose easiest and probably understandable cartographic method, i.e. choropleth method. Nevertheless, for heterogonous spaces those observing intense spatial dynamic, it proven that this method has many lacks deficiencies. This case Jeddah city (the second largest in Saudi Arabia), which a very contrasted urban place regards to its social structure, organization land use besides fact witnesses profound...
Abstract This paper presents some results of studies made with NOAA Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data in the fields agriculture, hydrology and oceanography Bangladesh. The techniques processing raw image are also discussed. for four different dates 1984 1985 have been used. were obtained from NOAA/NESDIS U.S. A. received real time at SPARRSO Meteorological Satellite Ground Station. Data AVHRR channels 1 2 used to calculate vegetation index (normalized) which was found be...
Located in the South-west of Saudi Arabia, Jeddah is more than a harbour.It Arabia's biggest Red Sea city and second only to Riyadh capital.During summer, this metropolis becomes political capital tourist resort for foreigners Saudis alike.The was affected by serious unexpected floods; two great ones took place 2009, 2011.The human material toll considerable, since these floods caused death hundreds people, damaged thousands buildings built on basins' slopes, which, however, had necessary...
There has been extreme utilization of petroleum derivatives in recent decades for the generation electrical vitality, which is contaminating nature a regularly expanding approach to respond exponential demand power. In light essential vision Saudi Arabia’s government towards fractional change reliance on oil as national wellspring economy, there consideration dependence resources available inside country, especially potentials renewable sources alternatives. Arabia appreciates its...
This paper addresses how open geodata and crowd-sourced geodata, the geoportals might be integrated with mainstream surveying mapping practices to update traditional topomaps quickly inexpensively, that otherwise impossible do it due economic logistic situations. The abundant geographic data on internet could used topographic maps while avoiding time-consuming nature of method. To able use them, is necessary measure quantify quality these data, as well verify their credibility, in order...
Saudi Arabia is attempting to develop a long-term tourism business that respects Islamic ideals, heritage, and traditions. In accordance with the “Vision of Kingdom 2030”, significant emphasis has been placed on developing promoting cultural as result Kingdom’s very valuable civilizational in addition entertainment improving quality life. The city Jeddah Arabia’s second capital, district known “Al-Balad”, which located city’s core, historical neighborhood for its old structures multi-story...
The determination of geoid models with great precision (centimeter) was always at the center interest in geodesy research [1] [2]. One most used methods to calculate model is method called Remove-Compute-Restore (R-C-R). This applies stokes’ integral formula by use short, medium and long wavelength information via three main stages R-C-R. GravSoft software implemented [3] for this study. Geodetic heights, a digital terrain (SRTM) leveled GPS points were as inputs. modeling carried out on...
