【 摘 要 】

Geographic information systems and remote sensing technologies have important tools for determination of some characteristics of natural resources enable us to get accurate results that by eliminating time, labor and processes that require high cost. The purpose of this study, determine land uses using geographic information systems and remote sensing technologies according to the European Environment Agency, air, water, soil, land cover, coastal erosion, biotopes and so on. Issues carried out under the project CORINE detected the parameters within the framework of watershed scale. Error level was determined by comparing the shapes of the actual terrain with the results obtained by using these technologies. According to the results detected sub class such as; 5 level of 1, 10 level of 2 and 15 level of 3. Assessed the relationship between land use map according to the CORINE and actual erosion risk map produced the for the same area. According to these results, low-risk areas are forests and meadow (24.66%), and medium and high risk areas are grassland and unproductive soil lands (34.98%) in terms of the actual erosion risk in the watershed area. Results provided by technologies such as geographic information systems and remote sensing were compared current land use maps of the classic method and identified a high correlation between them (%89.9). In this study, in the determination and monitoring of future changes in land use and incorrect land use, by reducing the negative effects of desertification and drought will be benefit for sustainable use natural resources.
