“…SIG merupakan sistem yang berkemampuan dalam menjawab pertanyaan spasial maupun non-spasial beserta kombinasinya dalam rangka memberikan solusi permasalahan keruangan. Pendekatan SIG menjadi salah satu pendekatan yang dapat dijadikan alternatif dalam penentuan prioritas kawasan untuk suatu peruntukan, termasuk juga dalam penelitian terkait irigasi (Dewantoro, 2013;Ismail, Ghaffar, & Azzam, 2012).…”

Planning of irrigation canal has always faced the problems due to the overlapping of different land use. Irrigation planning should consider the irrigation canals surrounding different land use. Optimization of the determination of the irrigation network must be applied through the assumption of the physical condition of topographical as well as the proximity between irrigation canal and area of irrigation. The aims of this study were: (1) Mapping existing condition of irrigation canals in DI Cibuluh related to the land use and topography of the study area; (2) Mapping and determining the optimal trace irrigation networks based on spatial analysis of the existing land use and topographical characteristics;(3) Establish a simulation concepts of re-classification related to irrigation services area based on the elevation of the study area using geospatial analysis. The study was conducted through geospatial analysis methods in Geographic Information Systems. Digital Elevation Models (DEM) were the basic data in simulating irrigation services area. The results showed that there were two overlapping land use type (forests and industrial areas) that should be subtracted from the irrigated areas. Alignment of Irrigation network was planned without overlapping forest and industrial area, so that the planning was more focus on simulation based on the control points by processing adjustments as well as high elevation contour and water height. ABSTRAKPerencanaan jalur irigasi seringkali mengalami kendala dengan adanya tumpang tindih antar penggunaan lahan yang berbeda. Perencanaan jalur irigasi harus mempertimbangkan tutupan lahan disekitarnya. Optimalisasi penentuan jaringan irigasi harus dilakukan melalui asumsi kondisi fisik lahan atau topografis kawasan serta kedekatan antar jaringan irigasi dengan daerah irigasi. Kajian optimalisasi penentuan trase jaringan irigasi melalui analisis geospasial di Daerah Irigasi Cibuluh, Provinsi Jawa Barat dengan pendekatan SIG ini bertujuan untuk (1) Memetakan kondisi eksisting rencana jalur irigasi di Daerah Irigasi Cibuluh terkait pertimbangan dengan tutupan lahan dan kondisi topografi di wilayah kajian; (2) Memetakan serta menentukan trase jaringan irigasi yang optimal berdasarkan analisis spasial terhadap tutupan lahan yang ada serta karakteristik topografi; (3) Membangun konsep simulasi berjenjang terkait daerah layanan irigasi berdasarkan ketinggian wilayah kajian melalui analisis geospasial. Kajian ini dilakukan melalui metode analisis geospasial dalam Sistem Informasi Geografis. Model ketinggian digital atau DEM merupakan data awal yang digunakan dalam membuat simulasi area layanan irigasi. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa pada Daerah Irigasi Cibuluh terdapat dua tumpang tinding tutupan lahan yang harus dikurangkan dari Daerah Irigasi tersebut. Tutupan lahan ini adalah kawasan hutan dan kawasan industri. Trase jaringan irigasi direncanakan tanpa memotong maupun melewati tutupan lahan hutan dan industri, sehingga perencanaan lebih kepada simulasi berdasarkan titik kontrol melalui...

Evaluation of soil fertility of alluvial soils in the Nile-Delta of Egypt is very important, especially after long periods of intensive cropping and loss of Nile-sediments after building the High Dam in the 1960s. The main objective of this work was to evaluate soil fertility in some of Dakahlia Governorate soils by using GIS techniques. Accordingly, 17 georeferenced soil profiles were randomly distributed within the studied area. Soil samples were collected from each profile at 0-30, 30-60, and 60-90 cm soil depth interval. Collected soil samples were analyzed for their physical, chemical, and fertility properties. Water samples were also collected from both irrigation and drainage canals close to each soil profile. These water samples were analyzed for their chemical properties. Evaluation of land capability and suitability for some crops production was performed using the Agriculture Land Evaluation System for arid and semi-arid regions (ASLEarid). Soils in the studied area were classified into two classes (excellent and good) according to theirphysical index andone class (excellent) based on their chemical index. Accordingly, the soil index was ranged between excellent and good. Soils were fit into two classes according to their fertility index, which are poor and very poor. Water quality was excellent and the environmental conditions varied from good to fair. The final index indicated that soils in the studied are fit into two classes (fair and poor). Land suitability for the selected crops varied from moderately suitable to very suitable. The limitations for crop productivity in the studied area can be alleviated through using proper fertility and land management practices.

“…This research showed the credibility of using satellite remote sensing data of Landsat-8 OLI to predict main surface bare soil characteristics in Tiba region as in most Tiba area CC, EC, and SMU were predicted with high accuracy and least deviation from analyzed data. Ismail et al, (2012), reported on a study for potential of irrigated agriculture in the western side of the Nile Delta that the most soil limiting factors were soil depth, drainage, slope gradient, salinity, and available water holding capacity. Spatial heterogeneity of surface bare soil is an important inherent property that describes the natural variability of the region and Landsat-8 modern sensors can detect the differences and describe the landscape (Ding et al, 2014).…”

In this research, satellite remote sensing data and field measured ground-truth data were used to identify the spectral signature and estimate the total surface area for fruit crops grown in Tiba region of western Nile delta of Egypt. Global position system (GPS) data collection and surface bare soil sampling for this research was conducted in Tiba region during 2012 and 2013 seasons. Ground-truth data included: eleven fruit crops: orange, mandarin, lime & lemon, grape, apple, peach, apricot, plum, guava, mango, and cactus pear; six other crops: tomato, squash, wheat, berseem clover, broad bean, and sugarbeet; and finally bare soil. One Landsat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) and Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) satellite image for the study area covering WRS-path 177 and WRS-row 39, acquired on 19 March 2013 was radiometric calibrated to top of atmospheric reflectance and spectral signature curves were developed for each crop and for grouped crops against bare soil. Nine vegetation indices (VIs) were derived from the reflectance wavelength of the visible, near infrared and shortwave infrared parts of spectrum and included: Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Ratio Vegetation Index (RVI), Transformed Vegetation Index (TVI), Ashburn Vegetation Index (AVI), Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI), Modified Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index 2 (MSAVI2), Tasseled Cap Brightness (TCB), Tasseled Cap Greenness (TCG), and Tasseled Cap Wetness (TCW). Supervised classifications for band reflectance and VIs were performed to estimate areas of fruit crops, other crops and bare soil, and accuracy assessment for the developed research methodology was presented. Moreover, multiple linear regression modeling (MLRM) equations to predict bare soil calcium carbonate (CC) %, electrical conductivity (EC) in dS•m-1 , pH, and soil texture (sand, silt, and clay %) by using the first eight bands of Landsat-8 OLI remote sensing data of bare soil as regressors were also developed, and soil mapping units (SMU) in Tiba were presented by using geographic information system (GIS) interpolated maps. Results indicated that satellite band reflectance estimates for cropping pattern were more precise than VIs, and it is recommend to use reflectance of band 3 (0.53-0.59 µm) or 4 (0.64-0.67 µm) to estimate surface area for fruit crops. MLRM prediction indicated that in most Tiba region CC, EC, and SMU of bare soil were predicted with high accuracy.
