Ecological monitoring, natural resources mapping, remote sensing and early warning systems

The scatterometer was applied for mapping snow and ice morphology over Antarctica and for soil moisture mapping over the Canadian Prairies.

The networks will incorporate specialized functions such as seabed mapping and tsunami forecasting.

(d) Marine and meteorology, including sea surface temperature mapping ocean wastes mapping coastal management (especially erosion assessment of coral reefs) wave height assessment forecasting of wave conditions on shipping routes fisheries (with emphasis on mapping of coastal habitats and location of fishing grounds) tides and currents (patterns, measurements and observations) and wind speed

Forest applications include forest area estimation and mapping, forest monitoring, forest fire assessment and forest management.

In the field of agriculture, satellite images have been used for crop acreage surveys and mapping as well as agricultural planning.

(a) The ecological monitoring, natural resources mapping, remote sensing and early warning systems network, for which the launch meeting was held in Tunis in October 2002 with the financial support of Germany and the Netherlands.

Remote sensing technologies will be used for natural resource surveying and mapping.

Remote sensing technologies will be used in natural resource surveying and mapping.

Applications were being developed for agriculture, mapping and environmental monitoring.

Considerable activity was developed in Greece concerning Earth observation, in vastly different application areas such as meteorology, climatology, upper air studies, land cover land use, forest mapping, cadastral mapping, marine research etc.

For TPN 4 on ecological monitoring, natural resource mapping, remote sensing and early warning systems

ECA will support and assist in the actions to be taken to realize the RCSSMRS vision for 2020, aimed at ensuring the relevance and sustainability of the Centre.

The Internet is transforming the way maps are made, enabling ordinary people dubbed citizen cartographers to work alongside intrepid adventurers and professional geographers. These cartographers whose only common characteristic is Internet access are embracing the opportunity to depict the places that they know and love, whether to help their neighbors get around or to give faraway people a glimpse of their local environments.

The Regional Centre for Mapping of Resources for Development used space technology for food security and environmental monitoring flood modelling and prediction modelling and prediction of diseases such as Rift Valley fever and HIV AIDS land degradation mapping and monitoring and monitoring urban sprawl.

RCSSMRS of ECA will continue to collect, process and disseminate the data and information provided by the Early Warning System for Food Security project, which is supported by FAO and hosted by RCSSMRS.

(a) Multi temporal ERS 1 SAR data are highly suitable for rice field mapping.

And it uses these sensors to build a map of the environment.

ERS 1 and ERS 2 data have been used for the production of space map at the scale of 1 200,000.

(c) Working out of plans for the acquisition of necessary additional data and mapping projects

(c) Working out of plans for the acquisition of necessary additional data and mapping projects

And we've also been hearing about the history, the family tree, of mankind through DNA genetic profiling.

Regional Centre for Services in Surveying Mapping and Remote Sensing (RCSSMRS) research, training and provision of information on natural resource and environmental data through the use of techniques such as surveying, mapping, remote sensing and geographic information systems.

The Conference decided that RECTAS and the Centre régional de télédétection should be merged in one new institution, while the African Organization for Cartography and Remote Sensing (AOCRS) and RCSSMRS would be retained as separate bodies.

(a) Morocco is currently working on applications for lagoon management and beach mapping

During 1998 and 1999, the Regional Centre for Services in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing (RCSSMRS) of ECA will organize short term courses on

87. In Belize, the mapping project of the Toledo Maya Cultural Council is an important model that addresses a wide range of issues and problems with regard to indigenous lands, territories and resources.

(a) Hazards mapping (natural and man made), including volcanic and seismic hazards earthquakes tsunamis oil spills monitoring flooding vulnerability, assessment and monitoring and disaster management

According to the work plan of the GoE determined in the Hamburg meeting of GoE, 2002, one of its tasks is to determine the criteria on the basis of which the new atlas can be accomplished, and to prepare recommendations for the terms of reference for, and the development of, mapping the sensitivity of areas affected by drought and desertification.

(b) Preparation of a publication entitled quot Mapping and land information systems proceedings of the Eighth United Nations Regional Cartographic Conference for Africa quot

There were maps and minutes from meetings where the parents were slagging each other off.

Similarly, the Regional Centre for Training in Aerospace Surveys of the Economic Commission for Africa in Nigeria and the Regional Centre for Mapping of Resources for Development in Kenya have been contributing to building capacity in Africa in digital mapping, aerospace surveys, resource survey, remote sensing, GIS and natural resource assessment.

The achieved mapping accuracy in the study was 89 per cent for rice fields against any other land cover

The activities will be conducted on a regional basis and will be based at RCSSMRS at Nairobi.

The use of these data for non meteorological purposes started in 1987 with the development of applications in forest fire detection and monitoring, drought monitoring, crop assessment and sea surface temperature mapping.

FAO is preparing a complete coverage of Sierra Leone with satellite image maps on the scale 1 100,000 to support the preparation of land cover maps by national experts.

Shehu And from there we will be able to, hopefully, make better predictions and then we compare it to the graph and also make some predictions.

In 1999, ECA will organize and service the Tenth United Nations Regional Cartographic Conference for Africa.
