| Abstract | Remote sensing with support of geopathic information
system is used as a n effective method in terms of their
application for regional development planning. Spacehorne imagery
with high resolution (SPOT) taken indifferent periods of time
198 5 and 1989 respectively are used for assessment of natural
resources and nat11ral conditions which have been utilize d in the
past and a t present a t the proposed study area. This was
resulted in establishing a set of thematic maps as land, water
was found out which agriculture techniques and cropping system
could be suited in term of land suitability classification.
A field survey by check list was conducted on human
resources from the two main sources: farmers and leaders of
two communes selected on simple random sampling in the study area
in order to find 01lt what is attitude of the local. people towards
utilization of natural resources for physical development and
household economy development both in term of agriculture and
small industry programme which have been developed in the
pro posed study area in the past and at present and their
further attitude towards changes for utilization of resources.
Based on research finding, the p aper at tempts to identify
the ways how to have best development of human resources and
natural resources and their interaction in the long term and
short term regional development programmes (district level).
Proposed recommendations were made for improving the method of
planning by remote sensing application and the system approach on
interaction of human and natural resources in the proposed study
area (Cam Binh District - Hai Hung province ) as well as be
applicable to the rest p art of the world with the similar natural
resources and natural conditions. |
