• Introduction • Concepts – Environment statistics – Remote sensing – GIS • Examples of using RS and GIS • Conclusion

Climate change should be added… Ongoing dialogue between data demand and data supply… Environment statistics

“Environment statistics are statistics that describe the state and trends of the environment, covering the media of the natural environment (air/climate, water, land/soil), the biota within the media, and human settlements.”

Remote sensing: definition

• Remote sensing is the collection of information about an object without being in direct physical contact with the object.

• Remote Sensing is a technology for sampling electromagnetic radiation to acquire and interpret non-immediate geospatial data from which to extract

information about features, objects, and classes on the Earth's land surface,

oceans, and atmosphere. (UNECA)

1 Based on 2004 prices from various online vendors. Benefits from remote sensing data

• Very useful where areas are inaccessible or where the cost of collecting spatial data over extensive areas is prohibitive Disadvantages • Provide good “pictures” for convincing the public of the value of participating in environmental assessment • Needs ground verification • Provide data over large areas that have standard format • Doesn’t offer details • Are available on a repetitive basis •andNot has the been best used tool tofor provide small data for areas over a long time basis areas

• May be used to monitor the progress• Needs of environmental expert system projects to extract data • Faster extraction of GIS-ready data

Application of Remote sensing

• Urbanization & Transportation – Updating road maps – Asphalt conditions – Wetland delineation

• Agriculture – Crop health analysis – Precision agriculture – Compliance mapping – Yield estimation

Threat to the further deterioration 2001 through logging in the forest in 2001 was exposed by using remotely sensed images GIS  GIS for Data combination GIS (Geographic Information System) is used to input, store , retrieve, manipulate, analyze and output geographically referenced data or geospatial data, in order to support decision making for planning and management of land use, natural resources, environment, transportation, urban facilities, and other administrative records

 GIS for Visual Presentation Basic Functions of GIS

• Data Acquisition and prepossessing

• Database Management and Retrieval

• Spatial Measurement and Analysis

• Graphic output and Visualization

Courtesy: Bodruddoza Mia Benefits of GIS

• Geospatial data are better maintained in a standard format.

• Revision and updating are easier.

• Geospatial data and information are easier to search, analysis and represent.

• More value added product.

• Geospatial data can be shared and exchanged freely.

• Productivity of the staff improved and more efficient.

• Time and money are saved.

• Better decision can be made.
