pThis book provides accurate and integrated information about land resources especially with the accelerated progress of information technology to help Egypt and similar countries to achieve the country sustainable development goals in the field of agriculture and natural resources. The Egyptian National sustainable development plans mainly aim to conserve the arable lands in the Nile Delta and the Nile Valley, in addition to the oases and desert fringes. Moreover, increasing land productivity is a vital national goal for filling the food gap. Consequently, providing accurate and integrated information about land natural resources using the recent technologies such as satellite dataimages and geoinformatics techniques. Such information would be a base for planning, decision making and research needs all over the world due to the importance of Egypt as the biggest and leading country in the MENA regions.p pThe book provides land natural resources database as a platform, upon which additional thematic information can be added in the future to serve multi approached sustainable development. The book highlights the usage of digital information in monitoring urban planning and encroachment, in addition to soil and land capability classification. Moreover, networks of irrigationdrainages, railways, and utilities are added for a wide management range. Various available information systems were employed to initiate the targeted land resources database e.g., ArcGIS, ERDAS IMAGINE and ENVI. Data of previous soil survey projects were the basis for the created digital database including High Dam Soil Survey, Soil map of Egypt and Land Master Plane.p pThe Digital Elevation Model DEM was elaborated using SRTM space images, in addition to spot heights and contour lines derived from the topographic maps scale 150,000 produced by the Egyptian Survey Authority ESA. The resulted thematic layers were incorporated in the created GIS land resources database. p
