This article explores the important issue of finding the best location for a retail store. The study focuses on using geographic information system (GIS) modeling to choose a location for an «Epicentr» chain store in K...

Forest fires in the Amazon, particularly in protected areas, pose significant challenges related to CO _2 emissions and deforestation. This study aimed to evaluate fire foci and their driving factors in the Jamanxim Nati...

Context and background  Rapid urbanisation in African cities is reshaping urban land systems, creating complex environmental trade-offs with direct implications for land policy and spatial regulation. In Windhoek and...

The increasing demand for technology and data necessitates the enhancement of infrastructure for the Control Tower Dashboard Geographic Information System (CTD GIS) application at PT XYZ. The current system operates with...

Analyzing time series data with remote sensing provides a better understanding of vegetation dynamics, since previous conditions and changes that have occurred over a given period are known. The objective of this paper w...

ABSTRACT Palms (Arecaceae) are key elements that contribute to the forest biodiversity of the State of Santa Catarina. However, the official List of Endangered Flora Species of that State is incomplete, including only tw...

La especificación del Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) para SIG más extendida define la interfaz de un Servicio de Mapas en Web (WMS). Un servicio que implementa esta interfaz acepta una petición de una aplicación cl...

Hoy día es claro que el análisis espacial de la información supone una gran fuente de conocimiento. La interoperabilidad de la información geográfica disponible mediante aplicaciones heterogéneas es fundamental par...

La cuenca del Río Guayas es considerada como la zona de mayor producción agrícolaganadera del Ecuador, por tanto su estudio es importante para tener una producción sustentable y sostenible en el tiempo. Su área abar...

La planificación hidrológica integral de los recursos de una cuenca hidrográfica contribuye a determinar y controlar algunos de los factores limitantes de la producción, caracterizando el ambiente, identificando rest...

Chattanooga has undergone a remarkable transformation from a heavily industrialized rail depot and one of the nation’s most polluted cities to the first designated National Park City in the United States of America...

Abstract This study evaluated the viability of organic farming in the Upper (UGR), Middle (MGR), and Lower Ganga Regions (LGR) by analysing soil health, nutrient availability, and heavy metal contamination. Using standar...

This study employs geospatial analysis using Shannon’s Entropy to quantify urban sprawl over four epochs (2009, 2013, 2018, and 2023) in Argungu, Kebbi state, Nigeria, which is currently facing rapid urbanization. ...

Abstract An integrated hydrochemical, statistical, and geospatial approach was adopted in the present study to evaluate the groundwater quality of the Mangura Nala watershed in the state of Bihar, India. A total of 154 g...

In semi-arid environments there is often a lack of data on hydrological variables that limits the ability to understand key hydrological processes. In response to this need, geomorphometric analysis is a quantitative app...

This study analyzes the spatio-temporal dynamics of urban sprawl in Keffi, Nigeria, from 2002 to 2023 using geospatial technologies. Landsat imagery was classified to map land use/land cover (LULC), achieving good accura...

Culverts play a critical role in stormwater conveyance, roadway safety, and flood mitigation, particularly within low-lying urban communities vulnerable to extreme rainfall events. In Louisiana, increased rainfall intens...

Abstract Background In Swaziland, as in many high HIV/TB burden settings, there is not information available regarding the household location of TB cases for identifying areas of increased TB incidence, limiting the deve...

Urbanization and climate change are rapidly transforming metropolitan environments, posing serious challenges to sustainable development, climate resilience, and disaster risk management, Among these challenges, concern,...

This study addresses the critical gap in integrated spatial data for Borno State, Nigeria, by analyzing land use and land cover (LULC) change, agricultural markets, and road network connectivity. Using geospatial techniq...

Urban Heat Island (UHI) is a phenomenon in which urban areas experience a higher temperature than more rural areas along an urbanization gradient. Streams draining urban land can experience higher temperatures due to fac...
