Abstract :
With the increasingly prominent of the water pollution problem and the rapid development of the 3S technique, The monitoring and forecasting of water pollution system combine with 3S becomes possible. Water pollution control has been developed for many years, but is limited to the study of trends instead of making accurate short-term forecasts. A major barrier to water pollution forecasting is the lack of an efficient system for water pollution monitoring. Traditional water pollution sampling is time-consuming, expensive, and can only be taken for small sizes. 3S technique provides a new technique to monitor water pollution repetitively for a large area. Moreover, it can be real-time monitoring and forecasting. The developed forecasting system is designed to predict water pollution variables using remote sensing data as an input to initialize and update water pollution conditions.
