embedded with actuators, electronics, network connectivity and sensors that enable them to collect and exchange data leading to an infrastructure of the information society. Through the sensors and internet connectivity, Internet of Things enables the remote control of these physical devices. It facilitates the integration of the physical world into computer based systems. Thus, efficiency is improved, as well as economic benefit and accuracy. The embedded computing system enables each…
Introduction With the beginning of the Space-Age, and the first iteration of Satellite Imagery, society saw progress in many fields for the betterment of welfare, security and knowledge. This new form of imagery has influenced the way we monitor, map, plan and preserve our world, as well as how we perceive our universe. This study hopes to discuss the major changes satellite imagery has had on archeology, meteorology, and political or military surveillance. It will also include a brief…

Winter cover crops on agricultural lands have been identified as an essential management practice with the potential to positively impact water quality by reducing the loss of water soluble nutrients, such as a nitrogen nitrate or NO3--N, from the soil due to rain and irrigation, which is also known as nitrogen leaching. Water quality is also positively impacted from sediment transport, or the movement of inorganic and organic particles by gravity and water. These crops serve to capture excess…

This report will highlight the difference in vegetation change from 1991 to 2011 in the southern Amazonia of Brazil. The report will do this by outlining what NDVI is and how it is derived and then analysing the specific results of Brazil. NDVI stands for Normalised Difference Vegetation Index and usually derived from satellite data, for landsat data this is usually thirty metres above the ground, to classify land cover change over a continental scale (DeFries and Townshend, 1994). When light…
