40 Years Mangrove Development in Kiribati Pacific Islands GIS&RS User Conference 27 th to 30 th November Suva Kataebati Bataua

Laura, Majuro, Marshall Islands Red = Loss of vegetation Green = New vegetation 1983 = 187 hectares 2000 = 140 hectares 1983 = 187 hectares 2000 = 140 hectares

Rectification of Historical Aerial Photographs, Majuro

Old Vegetation Maps & recent Satellite Images

Steps: 1.Scanning of map 2.Linear geometric rectification towards satellite image 3.Delineation of vegetation classes on map 4.Rasterising map and satellite image interpretation 5.Overlay analysis

Thanks Kiribati’s population is growing but the vegetation is growing as well (if trend continues) Kiribati’s population is growing but the vegetation is growing as well (if trend continues)
