Study of monitoring of water bodies using remote sensing data and GIS technologies (Talimarjan water reservoir)

The study of water bodies using remote sensing data and Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies is crucial for effective water resource management. This research focuses on monitoring the Talimarjan water reservoir, a vital water source in Uzbekistan, by leveraging satellite imagery and GIS tools. Remote sensing offers a cost-effective and comprehensive approach to assess various parameters, including surface area, water quality, and seasonal fluctuations in water levels. By utilizing multi-temporal satellite data, changes in the reservoir’s volume and surrounding vegetation were analyzed. The integration of GIS technologies facilitated the mapping and spatial analysis of these changes, enabling the identification of trends and potential risks, such as sedimentation and water loss. The combination of remote sensing and GIS provides valuable insights into the health and sustainability of the water reservoir, aiding in decision-making for water management authorities. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of these technologies in environmental monitoring, highlighting their potential for broader applications in the management of water resources in arid regions. Through accurate, real-time data, remote sensing and GIS help in ensuring sustainable water use, promoting efficient resource management, and mitigating the impacts of climate change on water bodies.
