“…Multispectral sensors generate multilayer spectral images that contain both the brightness and spectral (color) information. Each band gives a definite spectral signature of targets due to their difference in radiation, absorption, and reflectance properties (Prusty et al, 2017). In the study, six bands of Sentinel 2 MSI satellite images, Band 2 (blue), Band 3 (green), Band 4 (red), Band 8 (NIR), Band 11, and 12 (SWIR) were used.…”

Dear colleagues and friends, X. TUFUAB Technical Symposium was held in Aksaray on 25-27, April 2019. The Symposium was carried out by the organizations of Aksaray University and General Directorate of Mapping. As a international symposium in the field of photogrammetry and remote sensing, X.TUFUAB Technical Symposium 2019 is devoted to promote the advancement of knowledge, research, development, education and training in Geographical Information Sciences, Information Technology, Environmental Management and Resources, Sustainable Agriculture, Surveying, Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, their integration and applications, as to contribute to the well-being of humanity and the sustainability of the environment. 425 participants and scientists from 7 countries were attended to this symposium. 125 oral presentations and 10 poster presentations were presented during the symposium. 135 presentations take place in 25 sessions in two days.

Sediment contamination jeopardizes wetlands by harming aquatic organisms, disrupting food webs, and reducing biodiversity. Carcinogenic substances like heavy metals bioaccumulate in sediments and expose consumers to a greater risk of cancer. This study reports Pb, Cr, Cu, and Zn levels in sediments from eight wetlands in India. The Pb (51.25 ± 4.46 µg/g) and Cr (266 ± 6.95 µg/g) concentrations were highest in Hirakud, Cu (34.27 ± 2.2 µg/g) in Bhadrak, and Zn (55.45 ± 2.93 µg/g) in Koraput. The mean Pb, Cr, and Cu values in sediments exceeded the toxicity reference value. The contamination factor for Cr was the highest of the four metals studied at Hirakud (CF = 7.60) and Talcher (CF = 6.97). Furthermore, high and moderate positive correlations were observed between Cu and Zn (r = 0.77) and Pb and Cr (r = 0.36), respectively, across all sites. Cancer patients were found to be more concentrated in areas with higher concentrations of Pb and Cr, which are more carcinogenic. The link between heavy metals in wetland sediments and human cancer could be used to make policies that limit people's exposure to heavy metals and protect their health.
