SOME TOPOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS USING SRTM DATA: AN EXAMPLE of FOREST REGIONAL DIRECTORATE of ISPARTA
Abstract
Knowing topographical characteristics of terrain is crucial for forestry operations. Advances in geographical information systems and remote sensing technologies have facilitated the topographic data to be available. In this study, topographic analysis of the administrative units in the area of Isparta Regional Forest Directorate such as slope, aspect and elevation classes have been done using digital elevation data, briefly known as SRTM, produced from a space shuttle radar sensing. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the average slope at the basis of the chief offices of the forest district varies from 12% to 40%. SRTM and digital elevation map data at scale 1/25000 were compared for Kuzukulağı Chief Office having the highest average slope. According to the comparison, it was determined that terrain slope, aspect and elevation values between to data were different %7, %2 and %3 respectively in total. As a result, it was introduced that terrain topographic analysis would have been made by using SRTM data and this data would have been also used forestry activities easily except for high sensitivity studies.
