Abstract Global land cover is one of the fundamental contents Digital Earth. The Mapping project coordinated by International Steering Committee for has produced a 1-km global dataset – Land Cover National Organizations. It 20 classes defined using Classification System. Of them, 14 were derived supervised classification. remaining six classified independently: urban, tree open, mangrove, wetland, snow/ice, and water. Primary source data this mapping eight periods 16-day composite 7-band...
Amman, the capital city of Jordan, faces urbanization challenges and lacks reliable data for urban planning. This study is aimed at assessing, monitoring, mapping land cover using multitemporal Landsat satellite images. Four different use/cover maps were produced; periods over ten years between 1987 2017 (i.e., in 1987, 1997, 2007, 2017) used to evaluate analyze expansion visually quantitatively. Supervised classification technique followed by post comparison change detection approach was...
The meteorological data such as rainfall and temperatures, covering the period between 1979 2008, has been analyzed. were simulated using geographic information systems (GIS) computer software "MATLAB". output results converted into geographical maps. Three parameters analyzed: annual mean maximum temperature, minimum during (1979–2008). analyzed also used to forecast for (2009–2018).
A subset of each the Landsat (TM) and (ETM+) images acquired in August 1987, 2001, respectively, were used for mapping land degradation change detection purposes central parts Jordan. The two multi-temporal geometrically radiometrically calibrated to other as input an automatic procedure. Color composites generated analyses using TM bands -2, -3, -4 -4, -7. To map changes that had occurred between dates six spectral both ETM+ digital data (with thermal being excluded) individually supervised...
A Japanese Earth Resources Satellite (JERS)-1 L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) dataset was used for estimating topsoil thickness, of different types, in arid and semi-arid areas north-eastern Jordan. In this research, the relationship between remotely sensed data, backscattering coefficient thickness investigated. Based on dielectric constant properties samples, obtained by developing a multilayer modelling analysis. Using model, had been estimated means derived coefficients from JERS-1...
Fire hazards are common in forests of Jordan. For this reason, the study was focused on different methods to analyze human and natural characteristics northwest Jordan for predicting possibility forest fire area. The methodology applied by using satellite images, Geographic Information System (GIS), Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) Digital Elevation Model (DEM) as well extracted data from various sources which is important produce probability map. results showed that about 820 km2,...
خلفية الدراسة ومشكلتها: يُعدّ فهم العلاقات بين وظائف استخدام الأراضي المتعددة أمرًا بالغ الأهمية للتخطيط المكاني القائم على الأراضي، والذي يمكن أن يوجه عملية صنع سياسات الأراضي؛ لتجنب المشكلات الحضرية وتعزيز البيئات المبنية بشكل أفضل، ورغم أنّ أغلب الدراسات ركّزت كبير أنواع الوظائف الحضرية، إلا هناك القليل من التي تناولت التفاعلات وكيفية انتظامها مكانيًّا منظور التزامن للأنشطة. الأهداف: تهدف إلى إظهار أثر التفاعل الحضري تخطيط استعمالات الأرض في مدينة السلط. الطرق المستخدمة: تم اقتراح طريقة...
The Mix–Unmix Classifier is a simple novel method developed to address the problem of under‐determination in linear spectral unmixing. This paper tests applicability percentage mapping tree cover and different soil types from single bands satellite imagery. Various transformations were executed on African Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 7. equatorial rainforest most distinguishable under skewness. skewness transformation band unmixed into two...
The Dead Sea is hydrologically considered a very important place due its location at the lowest point on Earth an elevation of 416.3m below sea level, and being saltiest lake (332kg/m3) in world. continuous decrease water level causing serious environmental problems region. most reduction area, effects surrounding groundwater resources. This paper assessed area changes by studying relationship between human activities, represented evaporation pond surface order to determine boundary...
