REMOTE SENSING AND GIS IN DIASTER MANAGEMENT INTRODUCTION Satellites monitoring Earth’s resources and natural disasters. Each satellite has different repeat pass frequency and spatial resolution (unless it belongs to the same series of satellites for the purpose of continuation of data flow with same specifications). Similarly‚ different satellites have different types of sensors on-board‚ such as‚ panchromatic‚ multispectral‚ infrared and thermal. All these sensors have applications

preparing before the eruption‚ during its critical period (as it is erupting) and evacuation. Before an eruption there are number of ways to prepare and plan for a volcanic hazard. The most obvious is the prediction of volcanic eruptions‚ for example‚ seismic shock waves were used to predict an eruption 48 hours in advance‚ which resulted in the evacuation of the local population around Popocatepetl‚ Mexico‚ in 2000. The development of methods to predict volcanic eruptions is particularly important to

Exploration in the commonly accepted sense began with people like the sea-faring Columbus when‚ in the middle ages it was realized that the earth is a globe‚ not flat. It held a crucial role for centuries in colonization and trade expansion. In the 19th century startling results were achieved by wealthy and gifted amateurs. However quite early in this century virtually the whole of the earth’s surface had been mapped in outline‚ and most of it surveyed by explorers on foot. The process has more recently

A look at the Inner Earth Studying the earth’s interior can help us to understand earthquakes‚ volcanoes‚ plate tectonics and more about the inner earth’s natural processes. In general the earth’s interior has been sorted by Gravity. Heavier elements like iron tend to sink toward the center or core of the earth. Lighter materials‚ the silicates‚ oxygen compounds and water have risen to become part of the crust. This action has created distinct layers within the earth and is still in process today
