Course Goal

To provide information on GIS-based analysis of natural and technological risks such as drought, flood and inundation, extreme natural events, transportation and storage of harmful wastes, landslides, forest fires, surface and groundwater pollution.

Course Content

Digital image processing and evaluation for change detection. Image pre-processing for different change detection methods, their importance. Change detection methods: (1) Image algebra methods: image extraction, image proportioning, image regression and change vector analysis. Detection of binary change and naming the change information obtained by this method. Two-time image algebra operations using plant index such as NDVI, SAVI, MSAVI and other index data such as NDBI. (2) Conversion methods: Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Kauth-Thomas (Tasseled Cap) and Gramm-Schmidt transformations. Application of the transformation to bi- and multi-time datasets. (3) Classification-based methods: post-classification comparison, spectral and temporal mixture analysis, expectation maximization (EM), uncontrolled classification, and hybrid methods. (4) Advanced models: Li-Strahler Reflection and Reflection Mixing models, Biophysical Parameter Method. (5) GIS and other visual analysis methods. Important points in choosing algorithms, methods and approaches to be used for change detection in urban areas, forest areas and coastal areas. Advantages and disadvantages of different change detection methods. Determinants/constraints in constructing an ideal change detection.
