Evaluating and Monitoring Changes in the Coastal Urban Environment of Jeddah Using Remote Sensing Techniques and Geographic Information Systems
2024
Overview
Populations are highly concentrated on beaches, and increasing urbanization is putting increasing pressure on coastal ecosystems around the world. The study discussed the application of remote sensing techniques and geographic information systems to changes in the coastal urban environment of the city of Jeddah in the time period extending between the years: 1973- 2018 AD, and through analyzing topographic maps, approved organizational charts, and Landsat 7+ ETM satellite images, and performing geometric and spectral correction. Accordingly, the coast of the study area was divided into twelve sectors. Through the study, the significant expansion of marine constructions and coastal projects in the city of Jeddah was observed, which affected the coastal urban environment.. The areas of spatial change were calculated: excavation and filling in each sector, whether resulting from human or natural action. The study also discussed identifying the spatial characteristics of the projects and other patterns of human intervention on the geomorphodynamics of the coastline of the city of Jeddah and the extent of the urban environmental balance between the human factor benefiting from the marine environment to meet pressure needs. population and achieving sustainable development goals. The study resulted in monitoring the change in the coastal urban environment, identifying current and potential problems as a result of human interventions, and contributing to developing solutions to them.
