Water Spread

Dams or reservoirs have proven to be very beneficial for the sustained development of human beings since its evolution. The usefulness of dam depends upon its capacity to store water. Sedimentation is a process which involves deposition of silt carried by flowing water from erosion of soil of upstream catchment area. Sedimentation has proven to be very detrimental for the capacity of dams or reservoirs. Sedimentation results in huge loss of storage capacity of dams or reservoirs thus reducing its life. Many methods have developed to measure the reservoir sedimentation like hydrographic survey, inflow-outflow approaches, remote sensing method etc. Out of these, remote sensing method is widely used as it is very simple and involves very less human survey thus reducing the chances of error. In remote sensing method, revised water spread area at different levels of reservoir is calculated and used for computation of loss of capacities between these levels. The present study has been carried out on Kharkhara reservoirs situated in Chhattisgarh state. Multi–date satellite data of IRS-P6, LISS-III is used for Kharkhara dam to estimate revised capacity. The normalized difference water index (NDWI), band ratioing technique (BRT) and false color composite (FCC) along with field truth verification were used to differentiate water pixels from rest of image. As the revised water spread at dead storage and full reservoir levels were not available, best –fit curve has been used to get revised spreads on these levels. From the analysis, it has been observed that Kharkhara reservoir has lost 8.41 MCM of gross storage against its total capacity of 169.54 MCM during 50 years(1967-2017). The average rate of sedimentation in Kharkhara reservoir is 16.82 Ha-m per year.

Water Spread

The dynamic aspects of the reservoir which are water spread, suspended sediment distribution and concentration requires regular and periodical mapping and monitoring. Sedimentation in a reservoir affects the capacity of the reservoir by affecting both life and dead storages. The life of a reservoir depends on the rate of siltation. The various aspects and behavior of the reservoir sedimentation, like the process of sedimentation in the reservoir, sources of sediments, measures to check the sediment and limitations of space technology have been discussed in this report. Multi satellite remote sensing data provide information on elevation contours in the form of water spread area. Any reduction in reservoir water spread area at a specified elevation corresponding to the date of satellite data is an indication of sediment deposition. Thus the quality of sediment load that is settled down over a period of time can be determined by evaluating the change in the aerial spread of the reservoir at various elevations. Salandi reservoir project work was completed in 1982 and the same is taken as the year of first impounding. The original gross and live storages capacities were 565 MCM& 556.50 MCM respectively. In SRS CWC (2009), they found that live storage capacity of the Salandi reservoir is 518.61 MCM witnessing a loss of 37.89 MCM (i.e. 6.81%) in a period of 27 years.The data obtained through satellite enables us to study the aspects on various scales and at different stages. This report comprises of the use of satellite to obtain data for the years 2009-2013 through remote sensing in the sedimentation study of Salandi reservoir. After analysis of the satellite data in the present study(2017), it is found that live capacity of the reservoir of the Salandi reservoir in 2017 is 524.19MCM witnessing a loss of 32.31 MCM (i.e. 5.80%)in a period of 35 years. This accounts for live capacity loss of 0.16 % per annum since 1982. The trap efficiencies of this reservoir evaluated by using Brown’s, Brune’s and Gill’s methods are 94.03%, 98.01and 99.94% respectively. Thus, the average trap efficiency of the Salandi Reservoir is obtained as 97.32%.

On the analysis of spectral characteristics of Aoshan remote sensing images, we find the spectral differences between mariculture zones and other surface features. This paper combines normalized difference water index with mariculture zones distribution planning to complete the extraction and the statistics of the mariculture zones, in order to effectively achieve the regulation of mariculture zones.

The Impact

The years 1997/1998 and 2015/2016 saw the worst El Niño occurrence in human history. The occurrence of El Niño causes extreme temperature events which are higher than usual, drought and prolonged drought. The incident caused a decline in the ability of plants in carrying out the process of photosynthesis. This causes the carbon dioxide content to be higher than normal. Studies on the effects of El Niño and its degree of strength are still under-studied especially by researchers in the tropics. This study uses remote sensing technology that can provide spatial information. The first step of remote sensing data needs to go through the pre-process before building the NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) maps. Next this study will identify the relationship between Oceanic Nino Index (ONI) with Application Remote Sensing in The Study Of El Niño Extreme Effect 1997/1998 and 2015/2016 On Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI)NDWI and NDWI landscape indices. Next will make a comparison, statistical and spatial information space between NDWI and NDVI for each year 1997/1998 and 2015/2016. This study is very important in providing spatial information to those responsible in preparing measures in reducing the impact of El Niño.

The objective of this study was to analyze the changes of riverbanks in Ho Chi Minh City for the period 1989-2015 using remote sensing and GIS. Combination of Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) and thresholding method was used to extract the river bank based on the multi-temporal Landsat satellite images, including 12 Landsat 4-5 (TM) images and 2 Landsat 8 images in the period 1989-2015. Then, DSAS tool was used to calculate the change rates of river bank. The results showed that, the processes of erosion and accretion intertwined but most of the main riverbanks had erosion trend in the period 1989-2015. Specifically, the Long Tau River, Sai Gon River, Soai Rap River had erosion trends with a rate of about 10.44 m/year. The accretion process mainly occurred in Can Gio area, such as Dong Tranh river and Soai Rap river with a rate of 8.34 m/year. Evaluating the riverbank changes using multi-temporal remote sensing data may contribute an important reference to managing and protecting the riverbanks.

Perceptron Learning

Land cover classification and investigation of temporal changes are considered to be common applications of remote sensing. Water/non-water region estimation is one of the most fundamental classification tasks, analyzing the occurrence of water on the Earth’s surface. However, common remote sensing practices such as thresholding, spectral analysis, and statistical approaches are not sufficient to produce a globally adaptable water classification. The aim of this study is to develop a formula with automatically derived tuning parameters using perceptron neural networks for water/non-water region estimation, which we call the Perceptron-Derived Water Formula (PDWF), using Landsat-8 images. Water/non-water region estimates derived from PDWF were compared with three different approaches—Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI), Automatic Water Extraction Index (AWEI), and Deep Convolutional Neural Network—using various case studies. Our proposed method outperforms all three approaches, showing a significant improvement in water/non-water region estimation. PDWF performance is consistently better even in cases of challenging conditions such as low reflectance due to hill shadows, building-shadows, and dark soils. Moreover, our study implemented a sunglint correction to adapt water/non-water region estimation over sunglint-affected pixels.
