Abstract :
The aim of this study was to investigate the use of a logistic model to determine the growth properties of Eichhornia crassipes (EC), in particular the area of EC. The area of EC was measured using Alos satellite images and GPS. The measurements were shown to lead to an accurate area-related logistic model of EC. This indicates that there is a possibility of obtaining the growth area of EC from a logistic model with remote sensing measurements and suggests that it is possible to make up the production management policy and precise harvesting schedule for EC with the area-related logistic model.
