5. Conclusions
With IKONOS imagery our administration gained raster and
vector data in a quick,effective and economic way.With the fact
that the illegal construction is dynamic in the catchment areas a
conclusion can be drawn that remote sensing and integrated GIS
is essential with this project which is continuing .
While we feel that current remote sensing technologies have
many actual and potential applications for assessing water
resources and for monitoring the progress of clean-up
efforts,limitations in spectral and spatial resolution of current
sensors on satellites currently restrict the wide use of satellite
data for monitoring water quality.New satellites(IKONOS,etc.) .
and sensors(hyperspectralhigh spatial resolution)already
launched or planned to be launched over the next decade will
provide the improved spectral and spatial resolutions needed to
monitor water quality parameters in surface waters from space
platforms.
