Mangrove usually found on the outfall or along the beach and commonly the area is a mudflats area. Mangroves have many important roles to the environment and to the marine ecosystem and also protect land from the erosion, flood and even tsunami. Mangrove can be a shelter when there is tempest that come from the sea and can reduce the erosion to the land that cause from the wave. Mangrove have main...
For many years, quarrying activities that involves the extraction of rocks and minerals have been the primary industry in Malaysia and many countries worldwide Although the industry is an important part of the country's economy, it is without on site and off site side effects through its blasting, excavation, crushing, screening, stockpiling and transport of aggregate activities This project is to...
Floods occurrences are the most hated environmental hazard around the world. This is due to floods threaten human life and furthermore affected the economy of the involved country. In Malaysia, floods are usually due to the season monsoon and heavy rains that causing flash floods usually in urban area. Therefore, it is a must for researchers around the world to find a solution in solving this problem...
Year end usually would see many states in Malaysia would probably hits by severe floods due to Monsoon rain especially in the east coast. Many peoples suffered properties damages and economic losses. Thus, an accurate flood water level prediction model is required as an alarm system that would warn the affected area and residence to prepare for evacuation due to the upcoming severe flood. This paper...
Mangrove is a valuable ecological and economic resource. However, mangrove is repeatedly being threatened by many ideas such as reclamation including aquaculture, agriculture or development projects. Similar trend is happening in Malaysia that the annual mangrove loss in some major state in Peninsular Malaysia is about 1,282 ha or about 1% a year since 1990. The actual scenario of mangrove ecosystem...
Flood prediction modelling is one of the most popular research areas among researcher around the world. This is due to negative impacts to the economy and society that were caused by flood. The dynamic behaviours of river water level that causing flood were commonly modelled by researcher either by equations using physic theories or by black-box model. River water level prediction model that could...
Nowadays flood water level predictions have become one of the most popular subject matter among researcher because this natural disaster damages people's life and property. In addition, flood is also one of the natural disasters that occur frequently around the world. However, since the dynamic of the flood itself is highly nonlinear, it is a very difficult task to predict the flood water level ahead...
Processing of a vast number of aerial images from high-resolution digital camera always leads to the use of lengthy hours. This contradicts to the advantage of the use of UAV that could acquire and deliver the data rapidly to highlight the actual condition of the terrain. In previous studies, 1033 images were used covering the size of about seven kilometres square of the study area. During image acquisition...
Quality assurance (QA) is a crucial process to ensure the maximize accuracy of the data delivered to client. Equipped with many moving parts whose relative positions can change over time depending on use, handling frequency and care, the QA is essential for TLS. Furthermore, with rapid and dense three-dimensional (3D) data collection ability, TLS has gain interest for many accurate 3D applications...
Predicting flood disasters are good potential research areas due to its impact to publics and economics of the affected country. With rapid economic growth and urbanization, flash floods in cities are frequent and annoying to publics. Thus, accurate and reliable prediction model of respective rivers that causing flood to highly dense populated area is needed so that the public can be warn of the possible...

Strata Title Survey is a method of measurement in Cadastral Surveying. This measurement involve with buildings which has more than four floors such as industrial building, hotel and residential. The importance of Strata Title Survey is to make sure each parcel have its own lot and any maintenance and development are under control with the support of Strata Plan. The purpose of this study is to determine...
Most of the countries have paid great attention to flood water level prediction since flood may damages people's life and property. Currently, hydrological models were used to get the prediction of flood water levels. However, this involved with various parameters such as hydrometric measurements, weather forecasts and hydrogeological maps, in addition to water level, temperature and flow observations...
Sabah Electricity Sdn. Bhd (SESB) is an agency that provides generation, transmission and distribution services in state of Sabah and the Federal Territory Labuan. In a recent year, optimization is important in planning the best route for transmission line. Geographic Information System (GIS) offering many solutions on daily usage which included powering transmission line planning and design. In this...
Using mangroves as a potential coastal bioshield has been intensively studied and tested in the past 10 years. Without a doubt, these studies suggest mangroves are able to attenuate waves thus make it perfect bioshield against tsunami, storm surges, erosion and other coastal disaster. This paper synthesis state of mangroves forests in Peninsular Malaysia towards the realisation of adopting mangrove...
Besides reasonable price of software and instruments, the close-range photogrammetry (CRP) technique also considered as a simple and effective technique used to model almost any kind of objects in three-dimensional (3D) form. The model is constructed by matching a bunch of points marked in an image with its corresponding match in the other overlapping images. Once the task is finished, a 3D surface...
