Uttarakhand, Himalaya's a state, is having serious environmental problems that are mainly due to urbanization, infrastructure development, and climate change. The systematic review gathers together geospatial studies in ...

Abstract A strong association exists between land use land cover change and, Land Surface Temperature (LST). The study focuses on the assessment of vegetation cover, comprising forests and agricultural land, which are cr...

Background Strengthening emergency care systems could reduce death and disability in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), yet many struggle to provide timely, high-quality care. LMICs also face growing risks from cl...

Abstract Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a zoonosis with a worldwide distribution that has a major impact on public health. The aim of this study was to verify the prevalence of canine infection by Leishmania infantum, th...

Google Earth Engine is a cloud-based platform for planetary-scale geospatial analysis that brings Google's massive computational capabilities to bear on a variety of high-impact societal issues including deforestation, d...

Abstract Objectives To analyze spatiotemporal clustering patterns of severe hand foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in children aged ≤ 5 years, quantify the associations between meteorological factors and severe HFMD in...

Sacred groves (SGs) are community-protected forest patches dedicated to local deities, crucial for biodiversity conservation but threatened by habitat loss and weakening traditions. This study provides the first inventor...

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...

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 Potato crops in Bangladesh are significantly threatened by viral diseases, underscoring the need for comprehensive virome profiling to inform sustainable management strategies. In this study, we employed high-th...

Multimodal remote sensing image registration is a fundamental step for multisource data fusion and geospatial analysis. However, nonlinear radiometric, textural, and geometric discrepancies across modalities challenge in...

The WHO estimates that by 2050, 70% of the global population will reside in urban areas—centers of opportunity but also major health risks. Urbanization contributes to the rise of non-communicable chronic diseases, lin...

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,...

Optical computing has gained significant attention as a potential solution to the growing computational demands of machine learning, particularly for tasks requiring large-scale data processing and high energy efficiency...

Promoting active mobility has become a critical challenge highly influenced by the quality of public spaces. The spatial distribution of urban destinations plays a relevant role in ameliorating the quality of the urban e...

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...

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...

Abstract Background Climate change has caused more frequent and severe extreme weather events, threatening health system resilience worldwide. In April and May 2024, Kenya experienced unprecedented extensive floods with ...

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...

Urban Green Infrastructure (UGI) provides multiple benefits, but these are being greatly eroded by urbanization and declining connectivity, which threaten biodiversity in urban centres. This study therefore investigated ...

This article presents an innovative technique for remote sensing-based mapping and predicting land degradation in the European frontier regions. The mapping is carried out by geospatial data fusion of relevant biophysica...
