Application of Remote Sensing Technologies for the Environmental Impact Analysis in Kumtor Gold Mining Company.
Main Article Content
Abstract
Nowadays the Environment Protection having high impact on world’s environment, but necessary initiation on the environment issues remain unfulfilled. This research will introduce the environmental impact analysis in Kumtor gold mining by using remote sensing technologies, (VHR WorldView-2 and QuickBird satellite images with possibility stereoscopic, multispectral and panchromatic archive data). These satellite images courtesy of the DigitalGlobe Foundation for this thesis work. After completion of this research will get the results for following: a growth monitoring waste - dumps, horizontal-vertical displacements, determining the area of waste - dumps, measuring the volume of waste - dumps, and one of the main environmental problems associated the storage of huge amount of waste-dumps on the glacier and condition assessment of glaciers and their disappearance.
