In this study Secchi disk depths (SDD) are determined in an eutrophic Eymir Lake in Ankara using the multi-spectral image obtained from the Quickbird satellite. For this purpose, empirical models given in literature and artificial neural networks (ANN) are used. SDDs at 17 sampling points in Eymir Lake are measured via field studies. In the satellite image, pixel values at the sampling points are determined using ERDAS Imagine. Results indicate very low correlations between the SDD values calculated using the empirical models and the ones measured in-situ. Correlation of determination values (R2) up to 0.92 are achieved when ANN modeling is applied. In ANN models developed, Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) and gradient decent algorithm (GDA) are the training algorithms that provided the best results. This study indicates that ANN is an important tool in obtaining information from the remotely sensed data.

Detection of reservoir water levels using landsat remote sensing data over Ermenek and Altınkaya dams
Şenocak, Ali Ulvi Galip; Yılmaz, M. Tuğrul.; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
Detection of water border using remote sensing observations at the visible bands and incorporating them with the digital elevation map is a useful approach for detecting water volume of dams and the water bodies with existing DEM images. In this study, NDWI, NDPI, WI2015 and AWEI indices retrieved using Landsat 8 images and ASTER/SRTM DEM maps are utilized to infer about the water levels of Ermenek and Altınkaya dams’ reservoir water levels. To reduce the water level retrieval errors during the cloudy and t...
Estimation of carbon dioxide flux in shallow lakes in Turkey
Kalvenas, Jennifer; Beklioğlu, Meryem; Department of Biology (2014)
The role of Turkish shallow lakes as a sink or source of carbon from 44 shallow lakes sampled once from 2006 – 2012 over six degrees of latitude is analyzed in terms of spatial resolution. Two of the lakes (Eymir and Mogan) were sampled over the spring, summer, and fall seasons from 2006 – 2010 under dry and wet periods and analyzed for temporal resolution. An equation using pH, specific conductivity, wind speed, temperature, and acid neutralizing capacity (ANC) was used to determine CO2 fluxes (Trolle et a...
Determination of Vegetation Change Using Thematic Mapper Imagery in Afsin-Elbistan Lignite Basin; SE Turkey
Sarp, Gulcan (2011-10-10)
In this study Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) and Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) data for the years 1989-2000- 2010 was used to detect vegetational change in Afsin Elbistan lignite basin. Study based on application of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The change of vegetation cover is determined by comparing different date NDVI images using differencing method. Differencing NDVI images helped to quickly identify areas where vegetation is increased or decreased. The results suggest th...
A new robust method for bridge detection from high resolution electro optic satellite images
Gedik, Ekın; Cınar, Umut; Karaman, Ersin; Çetin, Yasemin; Halıcı, Uğur (null; 2012-05-09)
In this paper, an automatic approach for identifying bridges over water in satellite images is proposed. The proposed algorithm has three main steps. It starts with extracting the water regions in the satellite image by thresholding the NIR and clustering the NDWI images. Next possible river and water canals in the extracted water mask are identified by certain geometric constraints. Finally possible bridge regions are extracted by morphological operations applied to the water and river-canal mask....
Estimation of hydrologic parameters of Kocanaz watershed by a hydrologic model
Akay, Hüseyin; Baduna Koçyiğit, Müsteyde; Yanmaz, Ali Melih (2017-01-01)
The main goal of this study is to estimate the hydrologic parameters of Kocanaz watershed located in Western Black Sea Region, using a semi-distributed hydrologic model, Hydrologic Engineering Center – Hydrologic Modelling System (HEC-HMS). In this study, the hydrologic model was set up for two flood events occurred in 2002 and 2013, in which one was used for calibration while the other one was used for validation of the calibrated hydrologic parameters. The watershed was introduced into the model as a sing...
