Unleashing the Power of WebGIS: A Journey into Geospatial Innovation

Introduction to WebGIS Definition of WebGIS WebGIS, or Web-based Geographic Information System, is a platform that allows users to visualize, analyze, and interact with spatial data over the Internet. Unlike traditional GIS, which requires desktop software, WebGIS can be accessed from anywhere using a web browser or mobile application, making geospatial technology more accessible to a broader…

Every year, the World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought is celebrated to raise public awareness of international efforts to combat desertification.

The diversity of landscapes is matched by a variety of climates. Except for the southern point of Florida, there are no places of pure tropical climate in North America to speak of—but there is a great lot of variety. North America has both moist coastal zones and arid inland, as well as well-watered plains and bone-dry deserts.  Commercial farming thrives in the Cf (humid subtropical) and Df (humid continental) climates.

Before starting the concept of climate change first we need to understand the term climate “It is the long-term average of weather incidents in a certain region. The climate of the Earth is not constant. It has altered several times over billions of years due to natural reasons such as solar spots, ice age glaciations, and so on”.

Researchers and scientists utilize hyperspectral remote sensing, (also known as imaging spectroscopy), to identify terrestrial vegetation, minerals, and land use/land cover mapping. Remote sensing involves the examination of features observed in several regions of the electromagnetic spectrum........ #HyperspectralRemoteSensing #WhatisHyperspectralRemoteSensing #hyperspectralimaging #WhataretheApplicationsofHyperspectralRemoteSensing, #examplesofHyperspectralRemoteSensingSystems #multispectralvshyperspectral

57 LIDAR Remote Sensing: Historic Development, components, and Advantage of LIDAR Remote Sensing

57 LIDAR Remote Sensing: Historic Development, components, and Advantage of LIDAR Remote Sensing

Introduction: LIDAR Remote Sensing Lidar remote sensing is the modernist form of remote sensing (The Basic Concept of Remote Sensing). It stands for “light detection and ranging,” which is similar to radar (The Concept of Microwave Remote Sensing, its Geometry, and its Applications) imaging in that both families of sensors are intended to broadcast energy in a limited range of frequencies and…

56 GPS Signals Structure, Receivers, and Errors

In this article, we are going to gain our knowledge regarding the concept of GPS signals, receivers, and their errors.

Introduction : GPS Signals We have already discussed the concept of a global navigation satellite system in our previous article in full detail (Global Position System: Different Segments of GPS, its working Principle, Popular Substitute of GPS). In this article, we are going to gain our knowledge regarding the concept of GPS signals, receivers, and their errors. A GPS satellite continuously…

Global positioning system (GPS) is also known as Navigation System with Time And Ranging Global Positioning System (NAVSTAR) GPS. It is a GNSS (global satellite-based navigation system) system that covers the entire earth. GPS system was originally developed for military purposes, but after some time it is being used by civilians for various purposes such as Marnie navigation, surveying, and car navigation.

54 Geometric Corrections in Remote Sensed Image

54 Geometric Corrections in Remote Sensed Image

Introduction Remote sensing is the science of collecting information about any object on a surface from a well-defined distance with a proper sensor. In general, it may define as a technique of gathering data of the surface of the earth from a distance with a sensor mounted on a moving platform. Remote sensing can be classified into two major forms 1). Active remote sensing (Microwave Remote…

A mountain is an elevated portion of the earth’s crust, ordinarily with steep sides that demonstrate a significantly exposed cornerstone. A mountain differs from a plateau in a limited summit area and is larger than a hill, which usually rises at least 300 meters (1,000 ft) above the surrounding land.

The COP(Conference of the Parties) is the Convention’s important decision-making body. At the COP, all States that are Parties to the Convention are represented, and they review the Convention’s implementation, as well as any other legal instruments adopted by the COP, and make decisions necessary to promote the Convention’s effective implementation, including institutional and administrative arrangements.

The term radar stands for “radio detection and ranging. In simple words, we may understand by the term microwave remote sensing is that the use of microwave radiation for gathering information about the surface of the earth without physically contacting it.

At present, one of the most powerful instruments for the study of climate change ecology, land use land cover changes, ocean temperature, and salinity, and forest application is satellite remote sensing, which measures the flow of radiation entering and exiting the upper atmosphere.

Cyclones are the most terrible storms on Earth. A cyclone is a system of counter-clock-wise circulation of winds around a core of low pressure (eye of a cyclone) in the Northern Hemisphere and opposite conditions in the southern hemisphere winds move clockwise direction around the eye of the cyclone (due to Coriolis effect).

45 What is Urban Heat Island

45 What is Urban Heat Island

General Introduction: What is Urban Heat Island ? The concept of urban heat island is defined as a zone of warmer temperatures in the center of a city produced by enhanced absorption of solar radiation by urban surfaces and by waste heat release. We call the central area an urban heat island because it has a significantly elevated temperature. Such a large quantity of heat is stored in the…
