In recent years, there are ample research and development on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for various applications. The significance of small and low operating cost, UAV extensively being used in agriculture mapping. The UAV is suitable for the small survey area compared to the traditional remote sensing application for both spatial and temporal resolution. This research focuses on the uses of low...
High and accelerating rates of the urban changes and the urban area growth especially in developing countries needs for efficient and fast techniques for map production and revision with the appropriate accuracy. The used of high resolution with ground resolution had changed mapping perception due to its unique characteristics and have a good potential as a data sources for map production. Thus, the...
Grape is one of the demanded fruits in Malaysia. Grape is also well known as one of the expensive and exclusive fruits, because it hardly to be grown in tropical climate. Today, there are certain types of grapes that can be planted in Malaysia and it had been proved by the Perlis Department of Agriculture. Thus, there are also some of Malaysian citizen that bravely plants the grapes such as in Sendayan...
A sustainable management for the mangroves has not only provided consistent yield of renewable forest wood products such as timbers that are utilized for firewood, poles for foundation, construction materials, fishing gear and even tannin extraction, but also fishery resources and conductive environment for practice of non-destructive aquaculture activities. Mangrove play an important role in providing...
The increasingly rapid advances in technology development, approaches to integrate the property market valuation with Geographical Information System (GIS). Application of GIS in Property Valuation field very helpful for property market valuation information to presented in map and table using ArcGIS 9.3 software. It purpose is to facilities the access and searching the information. Before this, information...
Hydraulic actuator has been widely used in industrial equipments and processes principally due to its high-power density and system solution that it can provided. The natural nonlinear property of hydraulic cylinder has challenged researchers in designing suitable controller for positioning control, motion control and tracking control. This paper proposes a controller design using trajectory-adaptive...
Cadastral surveys deal with one of the oldest and most fundamental facets of human society, which is ownership of land. They are the surveys that create, mark, define, retrace, or reestablish the boundaries and subdivisions of the public lands in Malaysia. Knowing exactly where the boundary lines are is important for many different activities. If there any consideration of constructing a building...
Encryption and decryption technique is normally applied for security enhancement namely by hiding data, messages or images. In this paper, encryption and decryption method based on Hill Cipher is implemented in a car park is discussed. The main focus of applying encryption and decryption on the system is to conceal the images of car plate stored in the database. In addition, prevention from attackers...
An elevation is a vertical distance above or below a references datum. In surveying, the references datum that is universally employed is that of mean sea level (MSL). GPS observation give a reasonable accuracy of height for construction work but how much different the value of height the current GPS technology can be achieve if compare to the precise levelling technique. The aim of this study is...
Groundwater is hardly and almost not possible to be seen directly from the earth's surface. Geological methods, involving interpretation of geologic data and field reconnaissance, represent an important early step in groundwater investigation. Remote sensing data from aircraft or satellite has become an increasing valuable tool for understanding subsurface water condition. They are particularly useful,...
In aerial photogrammetry, aerial photographs are acquired using aerial camera and light aircraft as a platform. The aerial photographs are usually processed for mapping such as for production of topographic map and other special purpose map known as thematic map. However, this method is expensive and suitable for large area but it is not practical for mapping small area. This study concentrates on...
Photogrammetry is a technique that can be used for topographic mapping and many countries in the world used this technique for mapping. It also can be used for non-topographic mapping such as mapping facade of building, monument, historical building, human body and others using a technique known as close range photogrammetry. In this technique usually a metric camera is used. However, with the advancement...
Hydraulic cylinder has been widely used as an actuator in industrial equipments and processes due to its linear movements, fast response and accurate positioning of heavy load. The nonlinear properties of hydraulic cylinder has challenged researchers to design a suitable controller for position control, motion control, and tracking control. This paper presents model identification and controller design...
Deformation of engineering structures is often monitored in order to ensure that the structure is exhibiting safe deformation behaviour. The deformation of high-rise building can be monitored using geodetic surveys and geotechnical/structural measurements. Geodetic surveys include conventional (terrestrial) and satellite (Global Positioning System); wherelse geotechnical/structural measurements detect...
Nowadays development of technology Global Positioning System (GPS) is advancing very quickly and useful to any field that require spatial data. GPS is saving time, give a better accuracy can operate for 24 hours in any weather condition, saving time and others. Real Time Kinematic (RTK) and Stop and Go are popular techniques in GPS to get position of any feature on the earth surface. DTM (Digital...
The availability of modern tools such as Matlab System Identification Toolbox and LabVIEW System Identification Toolkit make plant model identification using experimental data easy to be implemented and less cumbersome than using Physic laws. This method can provides reliable and approximate model structure. Currently, many researchers keen on using Matlab System Identification Toolbox to approximate...
Geographical Information System (GIS) has been widely used in many fielsd and applications. At present there are many GIS software in the market. Hence, user should select appropriate GIS software in helping thme to solve their problem. GIS is also known as map maker and visualization aid. There is a common saying that `a picture worth a thousand words'. In the real estate, it is a common understanding...
The increased of transportation costs are causing people to re-evaluate about what is affordable life. Providing low-cost housing in urban area is helping people to own a house but the increased of cost of living especially in transportation is threaten this poor people to live in theirs affordable limits. Distance plays an important role when locating these poor people in particular area; the far...
