Zoning By Eye Interpretation in Google Earth (Case Study: Lipar Region, Chabahar)
Zoning is a well-accepted method of keeping nature walkers away from ecologically sensitive and valuable areas. In this research, considering objectives such as; Introduction and feasibility study of Lipar region for tourism development, protection of biodiversity of the region and evaluation of the capabilities of Google Earth software and method of visual interpretation in simulation of regions, zoning of Lipar region was discussed. Ground control points were recorded during field visits and photographs of the area with the Global Positioning System. The ground reality map, the final zoning map and the calculation of the share of each zone were prepared in ArcGIS software version 10.3. Identification of vegetation and wildlife of the area was done through direct observation using a random method. The results of the analysis of the final classification map of the region showed that Lipar has 13 types of zones and the salt field has the lowest percentage and shrublands and grasslands with low density have the highest percentage. Also, 2.67% of the area has been affected by human construction. The results showed that areas such as sandy beaches, rocky areas and areas with vegetation on the surface of the lagoon are considered sensitive wildlife habitats. Also, in this study, 4 plant species, 6 bird species and 2 reptile species were identified.
