Abstract:East Cairo is characterized by abundant quarries that have been used as land ll sites for solid waste.These sites have become part of the urban sprawl of New Cairo, and their detection became di cult from the ground surface. In this study, analysis of multi-temporal high-resolution satellite images and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) data were used to detect and delineate a buried land ll site located near the Ring Road, East Cairo, Egypt. Analysis of changes detected on the satellite images revealed t… Show more
