Crop type map of Fergana valley, Central Asia derived using satellite imagery for the year 2012
Mapping paddy rice planting area in northeastern Asia with Landsat 8 images, phenology-based algorithm and Google Earth Engine
Area and spatial distribution information of paddy rice are important for understanding of food security, water use, greenhouse gas emission, and disease transmission. Due to climatic warming and increasing food demand, ...
Powering up Nutritious Food Production in India with Spatial Solutions
In India, the demand of nutritional food grains continues to rise while the total area of arable land is not expected to increase significantly. An example of untapped opportunity lies in the potential use of crop-fallows ...
A methodology to estimate equity of canal water and groundwater use at different spatial and temporal scales: a geo-informatics approach
Indus basin irrigation system (IBIS) is one of
the largest contiguous irrigation systems of the world. The
surface canal water supplies are far less than the crop water
demands which lead farmers to use groundwater to ...
Targeting Drought-Tolerant Maize Varieties in Southern Africa: A Geospatial Crop Modeling Approach Using Big Data
Maize is a major staple food crop in southern Africa and stress tolerant improved varieties have the potential to increase productivity, enhance livelihoods and reduce food insecurity. This study uses big data in refining ...
Application of earth observation products for hydrological modeling of the Oum Er Rbia river basin
The increasing water demand over recent decades together with the climate change impacts on water resources lead to a growing shortage of water availability. Investigating and developing novel strategies to assess and ...
Calibration of hydrological models based on remotely sensed soil moisture and evapotranspiration
The increasing water demand over recent decades together with the climate
change impacts on water resources may lead to growing problems with water availability.
