GE 245- GROUP ASSIGNMENTS ON APPLICATIONS OF REMOTE SENSING (FOR CLASS PRESENTATIONS) JAN 2018

1. Remote sensing offers a synoptic view of the spatial distribution and dynamics of hydrological phenomena, often unattainable by traditional ground surveys. With examples discuss this contention.(SOLIDARITY GROUP)
2. Discuss the role of remote sensing in monitoring different land-use changes(TUMAINIGROUP)
3. Explain how multitemporal analyses of remotely sensed data provide a unique perspective of how cities evolve.(TEACHERS GROUP)
4. Agriculture plays a dominant role in the economies of both developed and developing countries. Describe how remote sensing tools are used as mapping tools to classify crops, examine their health and viability, and monitor farming practices. (WE ARE IN THE SKY GROUP)
5. Both commercial and non-commercial forestry utilises a particularly diverse range of remote sensing applications. Explain this statement by giving clear examples. (WHITE ANGEL GROUP)
6. Remote sensing provides a means of quickly identifying and delineating various forest types, a task that is difficult and time-consuming using traditional ground surveys. How far is this statement true?(GLORIUS GROUPS)
7. State how remote sensing can be used to detect and monitor forest fires and re-growth following a fire. (GOLDEN GROUP)
8. Describe the applications of remote sensing in the following geological/geomorphologic activities:
              (a) Mineral exploration (b) Geologic Unit Mapping (PLATO GROUP)
             (c) Volcanism (d) Glacial/ice depletion (NYERERE 2A GROUP)
 9. Explain the application of remote sensing in the ocean and coastal monitoring.(PATRIOTIC GROUP) 
10. What are the utilities of remote sensing in mapping science?(NEW LIGHT GROUP) 
11. Explain how remote sensing can be a tool for weather monitoring and forecast. (EDUCATION FIRST GROUP) 
12. How can remote sensing imagery be used to estimate population size, distribution, and quality of life?(WISDOM GROUP) 
13. Explain the application of remote sensing in hazard mitigation. (LIBERATION GROUP) 
14.“One of the sensitive areas to be managed carefully in Tanzania is the wildlife sector”. With examples from the literature discuss this claim. (REVOLUTION GROUP) 
15. How is remote sensing important in monitoring Land use and land cover changes of the environment? (UHURU GROUP) 
16. Monitoring urban growth and change is one of the questions social scientists, urban planners and decision-makers deal with most frequently. Explain the usefulness of remote sensing tool in monitoring urban growth and change. (HOPE GROUP) 
17. “Remote sensing is primarily used in the context of disease mapping”. Elaborate this contention (REPUBLICAN GROUP) 

18. How can remote sensing be utilized in identifying soil properties, evaluating crop productivity and crop health? (VISION GROUP) 

19. Explain the application of remote sensing in watershed management (PEACE & LOVE GROUP) 
20. Illustrate the applications of remote sensing in Meteorological Sciences (HONEST GROUP)
21. Explain how a remote sensing tool can be used in water resources management (BRIGHT GROUP)
22. “Remote Sensing is a very important tool in coastal resource mapping”. Elaborate this statement. (RANGERS GROUP)
NB:
·        It is advised that everyone should make his/her own copy of this sheet of questions for studying.
·        Each presentation will last for ten minutes. It is advised that each group go digital by presenting their work in powerpoint to attract more scores
·        Every member of a particular group should be present during presentation
·        Which group should present on a particular day, remain in the hands of the course instructors i.e the instructors will decide promptly in class on which group to present

·        Presentation will be conducted on Fridays starting from 19th January 2018
