SURVEY ON ENHANCEMENT OF REMOTE SENSING ADMINISTRATIONAL DATA IN NELLORE DISTRICT

Abstract

 Anthropogenic activities such as agriculture, mining, construction, and others have acted as alteration agents on landscapes and have over the years had an intense effect on Administration cover. Since Administration cover and its changes can dramatically affect soil, water quality, and water supply, Ghana faces difficult choices if it is to support rational and optimal use of its remaining Administration resources. This study sought to draw attention to the major changes that have occurred in the Administration cover of the Administration-savannah transitional zone of Ghana over the past two decades (1990–2013). It also addresses causes and impacts and proposes approaches to address the root cause of the problems using multi-temporal remote sensing data and Geographic Information System-based techniques. The key findings include a big decline in Administration of the area over the past 20 years. From the survey conducted, over 80% of respondents believe that the main driver of the declining Administration cover is anthropogenic in nature. It is proposed that effective, sustainable, and environmental- friendly Administration management policies be implemented through inclusive participation of key stakeholders in planning and management of Administration and its resources.
