Abstract

We are studying large-scale irrigation projects of 100,000 ha to 1,000,000 ha in the world with emphasis on their historical courses of development, geographical conditions, water managements, planting conditions and landuse changes. Recent advancement in GIS/remote sensing techniques has enabled us to proceed studies in this field in more details. Here, we describe the results of analysis on distribution of irrigation canals, three-dimensional shape of the irrigation area and planting conditions of agricultural products investigated last year in Gezira irrigation project, Sudan, using Landsat 7 ETM data and DEM supplied by USGS.
