Determining the Spatial Effects of Quarries Using A Drone: the Case of the Suleymanpasa-Tekirdag Quarries
Özet
This study calculated the area and volume of the quarries located in Suleymanpasa district of Tekirdag province using geographic information systems (GIS) that have recently been employed in almost all disciplines and are very effective in terms of reliability, speed, process, output, and comprehensible results. All aerial photographs in this study were taken using a drone; no satellite images were used. The aerial photographs were merged using GIS software; the volume of the changing topography attributable to quarrying activities and the size of the affected area were identified and mapped in a fast and reliable manner using the spatial data.
