Digital Processing of Satellite Imagery to Determine the Spatial Distribution of Vegetation Cover in the Neighborhoods of Ramadi City
Abstract
Objectives:1- The study aims to find out the vegetation cover in the city of Ramadi is one of the important means in collecting data that document these sites geographically and classifying them Determine the effectiveness of using modern geographical techniques in representing the vegetation in the city of Ramadi.2- Building a geographic database (Geodatabase) to represent single-reference spatial data for vegetation in the city of Ramadi.3- Analyzing and evaluating vegetation patterns in the neighborhoods of Ramadi.Method:1- Study and analyze modern geographical tools and techniques available to represent vegetation cover.2- Collecting single-reference spatial data for the vegetation cover of the city of Ramadi.3- Applying and testing geographical methods for drawing high-resolution vegetation maps.4- Developing a geographic database that contains layers of spatial data related to vegetation.5- Analyzing spatial data to determine vegetation patterns and analyze gaps and challenges.6- Evaluate the results and provide recommendations to improve the representation of vegetation in the city of Ramadi.Results:1-The study confirmed that remote sensing techniques and geographic information systems are considered an important and accurate source of information about studying the vegetation of the study area during the period 2021..3- The study emphasizes the importance of geographic information systems technology in the process of improvement and classification because it facilitated many difficulties for the researcher by reducing time, effort, and speed of completion.4- Remote sensing is considered an important scientific resource in detecting changes in land cover and land uses through the rich data it provides, which is characterized by comprehensiveness and accuracy in determining changes in the features of the Earth’s surface, with the possibility of monitoring these changes over successive periods of time.Conclusion:1- Enhancing the use of modern geographical techniques in representing vegetation in the city of Ramadi, with a focus on developing high-accuracy mapping methods.2- Strengthening efforts to collect single-reference spatial data on vegetation in the city of Ramadi, which contributes to building an integrated geographical database.3- Stimulating future research and studies to use spatial data and geographical analysis techniques to understand and analyze vegetation patterns in the city of Ramadi in a more accurate and detailed manner.4- Strengthening cooperation between stakeholders, including the local government, universities and research institutions, to develop innovative strategies and solutions to represent and manage the green cover in the city.
