تتضمن هذه الدراسة تحليلا شاملا للعوامل المناخية و النباتية و الطبوغرافية لمحمية النبي متى (منطقة الدريكيش- محافظة طرطوس – سوريا) كونها أهم العوامل المؤثرة في حرائق الغابات، حيث تم جمع البيانات المرافقة لكل حريق و تحليلها باستخدام البرامج الاحصائية (SPSS) و (EXCEL) و دراسة الارتباط المتعدد بين هذه العوامل و بين ظاهرة تكرار الحريق في منطقة معينة (خطر حدوث الحريق). تم بعد ذلك معالجة هذه البيانات و نتائج التحليل و الارتباط المتعدد ضمن برنامج نظام المعلومات الجغرافية (GIS) للحصول على الخريطة الممثلة لمناطق خطر حدوث الحريق، و تمت الاستعانة بالخرائط الطبوغرافية بمقياس (1:50000), و الصور الفضائية بمقياس (1:25000)، حيث صممت الخرائط اللازمة للدراسة (خريطة الانحدار – خريطة المعرض - خريطة التغطية النباتية – خريطة البنية التحتية - خريطة مناطق خطر الحريق)، و تم اقتراح أماكن أبراج المراقبة و مراكز التدخل السريع ضمن المناطق ذات درجة الخطورة العالية لحدوث الحرائق. تعدّ هذه الخرائط بمثابة أنظمة إنذار مبكر يمكن التنبؤ من خلالها على احتمال حدوث حريق ما ضمن المحمية عندما تتوفر الشروط الملائمة لذلك.
This study includes a full analysis of climatic, vegetation, and topographical factors in Nabe Matta preserve (Drekish Region – Tartous Governorate – Syria), which is considered as the most important factors affecting forest fires. The data were collected for each fire and analyzed by statistical programs (SPSS) and (EXCEL), and the relationship between these multiple factors and the phenomenon of recurrence of fire in one area (fire risk region) was studied. Then the data and the results of the analysis and multi relationship had been studied within the geographic information system software (GIS) to obtain the map of fire risk region, as well as results from topographic maps (1:50.000), aerial photographs (1:25.000), and the needed maps were designed for the study such as (slope map - aspect map - vegetation cover map - infrastructure map - fire risk region map),then places of monitoring towers and centers of rapid intervention in high-risk areas have been proposed for the occurrence of fires. These maps are considered as warning systems and with it we can predict the probability of any fire in the Preserve when the appropriate conditions are provided for it.

The eco-tourism is an important element in the economic and social development at
the both local and international levels. It represent an essential economic resource for the
governmental sector, so this research particularly important because it i
s looking for the
possibility of using GIS techniques in the protected areas management. The objective of
this study is to verify the GIS importance in creating data-base which is significant for
Naby Matta protected area managers; this data-base is basically helping in the development
of the ecotourism. The results of research confirmed the importance of geographic
information systems in designing of database and the various maps and its role in
determining the steps tourism development such as determining the places of assimilation
and classify it according of the visitors density, select the better tracks for pedestrians, the
appointment of entry points and restaurants, observation points, in addition to the
investment potential of geographic information systems in spatial analysis such as
proximity and distance analysis of particular point from another point, or search for a
particular tourist attraction and find it such as searching for the best spots to enjoy the
picturesque scenery away from sensitive environmental housing thus saving time and
effort and speed in the service of visitors.
This study was related to the urban development of Homs City and
its surrounding between 1972 – 2010 by using remote sensing
technique and geographic information system. The results of the
study indicated that the size of the city was increased 60
0% times ,
randomly and eliminating most of crop lands.
In developing countries, where resources are often scarce, land availability, productivity potential, capability and sustainability for agriculture and, planning and maximizing the use of the land resources for a particular land utilization type is e
ssential. In order to ensure appropriate decision and, continued and sustainable productivity, thereby continuing to support the population economically without degradation, land use planning is essential. Remote sensing (RS) and geographic information systems(GIS) are useful tools in land use planning processes .in this study 4 landscape units (costal leveled plains ,valleys and channel bed, Piedmont :slight slopping ,moderately slopping ,sever slopping ,and Summit unit) were described and compared its characteristics with the land utilization requirements for 6 land utilization types (LUT1: irrigated citrus low mechanized ,LUT2: irrigated potato high mechanized ,LUT3: irrigated tomato medium mechanized,LUT4: rainfed olive low mechanized,LUT5:rainfed wheat low mechanized, LUT6:natural forests)by using LAMIS program .the results showed that43.07% of studied area is moderate suitability S3, 27.9% is low suitabilityS4 ,and 20.24% is unsuitable N1.the land suitability evaluation for LUT2 :35.18% good suitability S2 ,35.17% moderate suitabilityS3 and 20.24% low suitability S4 and for LUT3:50.97% good suitability S2,20.04% moderate suitabilityS3 and 20.24% low suitability S4. 43.07% of lands are very suitable S1 for LUT4 ,27.91% good suitability S2 and 20.24% moderate suitabilityS3.for LUT6 ; land suitability evaluation shown that 59.24% of lands are very suitable S1 and 31.93% good suitable S2.
Land use planning processes include matching between physical and socio-economic conditions by using Definite program .optimal land utilization types are determined depending on 3 multi-criteria ( costs ,gross margin , water requirements for irrigation) and according to two scenarios ( SC1:conservative scenario with concerned to water requirements , SC2:economic scenario with concerned to gross margin ).the results showed that LUT4 is the optimal current land use type of all three physiographic units (costal leveled plains ,valleys and channel bed and slight slopping).2 suggested land utilization types ( LUT7:irrigated kiwi low mechanized ,LUT8:irrigated groundnuts high mechanized) are proposed to costal leveled plains and compared with LUT4,comparison results shown that LUT4 is the optimal land use according to SC1 and LUT7 is the optimal land use type according to SC2.for valley and
channel bed unit , the optimal land use type according to SC1 is multiple land use type ( rainfed wheat under rainfed olive trees) and according to SC2 is LUT7.3 land utilization types(LUT7,LUT8,LUT9: rainfed lentil low mechanized)are suggested for slight slopping piedmont .the results of planning process showed that the optimal land use type is LUT4 for both scenarios SC1,SC2.
Al- Qusier region is important agricultural areas in Syria, and
contribute to cover a significant part of the agricultural needs of the country ,but it was suffering of poor land use in some locations.
This study aims to prepare maps of land use an
d land cover using
remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS)
techniques, the study relied on SPOT-4 satellite images with spatial resolutions 10 m for (white–black) images and 20 m for color images.
The study found a view of results were the ability of remote sensing and geographic information systems in the production of accurate maps of land use/land cover and establish a digital database for spatial land use and land cover for Al- Qusier region.
Remote sensing technique is considered as one of the main sciences that grew very
fast last years. Satellite images are important and advanced source to get data about any
region on the earth. Using satellite images, integrated with geographic info
rmation system
(GIS) for mapping are considered as one of the modern applications that expanded widely
now a days.
This paper aims at integrating the techniques of remote sensing and geographic
information systems (GIS) for performing topographic study of landsat7 satellite image
taken of a part of northern part of Lattakia. The two software, Erdas Imagine and ArcGIS
are used to perform topographic analysis depending on digital processing for the image,
then analyzing its terrain. Depending on digital terrain model (DTM), 3D slope image is
derived. Land use map is written for the study area. Then, some spatial analysis are
performed to find the best positions to construct different projects that have economic
benefits.
finally, analyses and results are discussed.
