Using Environmental Toxicology to Address East Asian Public Health Issues Using Google Earth Engine Cloud Computing, Suspended Particulate Matter Analysis of Pre And During Covid Lockdown: A Case Study of Ukai Reservoir
Author(s): Rukhsar Parwez*
There are many factors that can contribute to the presence of suspended particle matter (SPM) in a waterbody or river, including additional pollutants released from sewage that has not been properly treated, siltation, sedimentation, flooding, and even bacteria. The impacts of pandemic-induced lockdown on the SPM levels in the lower Tapi reservoir or Ukai reservoir were investigated in this study using remote sensing techniques. With a radiometric resolution of 12 bits and a spatial resolution of 30 m, Landsat-8 OLI (Operational Land Imager) was used to perform the estimation. The study's products were produced using the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud computing platform. The GEE is a robust semi-automated workflow system created for the processing and visualisation of geospatial datasets for scientific purposes. A computer algorithm was used, and for the subject area, a time-seri.. View More»
