Depth Water

Bathymetry is a method of quantifying depths to study the topography of water bodies, including oceans, seas, rivers and lakes. The measurement of bathymetry by means of satellite images is one of the fundamental investigations in the field of remote sensing (RS) of marine environment, which has a lot of applications for the coastal environment and its monitoring. The precise determination of depth water is essential for various purposes, such as the monitoring of underwater topography, the movement of deposited sediments and the production of maritime maps for navigation. Remote sensing allows the bathymetry modeling at spatial scales that are impossible to achieve with traditional methods. Bathymetry can be estimated using RS with several techniques, each with its own capacity for depth detection, accuracy, error, strengths, advantages, disadvantages and the best application environment. Before that, a GUI interface is developed in Matlab that contains enough data to be able to compute the bathymetry in multispectral images from the satellite LANDSAT 8, with the intention of being able to analyze how flooded an area will be.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Tibetan Plateau (TP) is the most abundant area of water resources and water energy resources in China. It is also the birthplace of the main rivers in Southeast Asia and plays an important strategic role. However, due to its remote location and complex topography, the observation of surface hydrometeorological elements is extremely scarce, which seriously restricts the understanding of the water cycle in this area. Using remote sensing images to extract rivers and lakes on TP can obtain a lot of valuable water resources information. However, the downloading and processing of remote sensing images is very time-consuming, especially the processing of remote sensing images with large-scale and long time series often involves hundreds of gigabytes of data, which requires a high level of personal computers and is inefficient. As a cloud platform dedicated to data processing and analysis of geoscience, Google Earth Engine(GEE) integrates many excellent remote sensing image processing algorithms. It does not need to download images and supports online remote sensing image processing, which greatly improves the output efficiency. Based on GEE, the monthly data of Yarlung Zangbo River at Nuxia Hydrological Station and the annual data of typical lakes were extracted and vectorized from the pre-processed Landsat series images. It was found that the area of Yarlung Zangbo River at Nuxia Hydrological Station varies periodically. The changing trend of typical lakes is also revealed.</p>

Basin Area

Whereas the tank volume and dehydrating digits from kinds of tanks are depended on repository sludge, so calculating the sediments is so important in tank planning and hydraulic structures. We are worry a lot about soil erosion in the basin area leading to deposit in rivers and lakes. It holds two reasons: firstly, because the surface soil of drainage would lose its fertility and secondly, the capacity of the tank decreases also it causes the decrease of water quality in downstream. Several studies have shown that we can estimate the rate of suspension sediments through remote sensing techniques. Whereas using remote sensing methods in contrast to the traditional and current techniques is faster and more accurate then they can be used as the effective techniques. The intent of this study has already been to estimate the rate of sediments in Karaj watershed through remote sensing and satellite images then comparing the gained results to the sediments data to use them in gauge-hydraulic station. We mean to recognize the remote sensing methods in calculating sediment and use them to determine the rate of river sediments so that identifying their accuracies. According to the results gained of the shown relations at this article, the amount of annual suspended sedimentary in KARAJ watershed have been 320490 Tones and in hydrologic method is about 350764 Tones .
