Mangrove Forests Mapping in the Southern Part of Japan Using Landsat ETM+ with DEM
2013
Journal of Geographic Information System
A regional map of mangrove forests was produced for six islands located in the southern part of Japan by integrating the spectral analyses of Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) images with a ...
The integration of spectral analyses with topographic data has clearly separated the mangrove forests from other vegetation. ...
Despite the fact that most of the land areas were less than 1 km 2 ( Table 3 ) with the exception of Iriomote Island, the spectral analysis of Landsat images together with the DEM data were able to detect ...

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Conservation on Mangroves: A Remote Sensing-Based Comparison for Two Adjacent Protected Areas in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, China
2016
Remote Sensing
Although the coarse spatial resolution of the Landsat data is actually not well suited for species-level mapping, these data were adaptive for applying dynamics studies [21] . ...

GEOSPATIAL INFORMATION ON LAND USE/LAND COVER OF THE COASTLINE ENVIRONMENT IN AKWA IBOM STATE BETWEEN 1986 AND 2018
2020
International Journal of Advanced Academic Research
Landsat TM of 1986, Enhance Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) of 2003, and the Operational Land Imager (OLI) of 2018 data were used for this study. ...
The scenario was different with regards to Forested Area, as increase was observed between 1986 and 2003 and decrease between 2003 and 2018, which may be attributed to inconsistent environmental policies ...
Data used for this included Landsat TM images of 1986 and Landsat ETM+ of 2003 both covering the Niger Delta area of Nigeria. ...
