In order to employ the guidelines for sustainable development, remote sensing and geographic  information system (RS/GIS) have emerged as sub‐systems of space technology.

The  application  of  these  techniques  in  solving  of  ongoing environmental problems of Iran, as well as, for the future sustainable development  of  the  country  is  described  by  reviewing  some  case studies  conducted  in  Iranian  Space  Agency  (ISA)  and  direct cooperation with the other companies and universities.

Drought Prediction by Using Artificial Neural Network

The satellite based model established in this research is able to predict and map drought intensity during  the next months. Figure  (1)  shows a  schematic diagram of  the model. Satellite indices as input data are applied to an artificial neural network model and SPI (drought intensity maps) are produced as output information. 

Figure (1)‐ schematic diagram of the model

This research continues to get a robust model in order to predict drought. 

Difference between this research and previous works is the type of  Inputs and Outputs.In previous works ,Inputs and outputs are Meteorological and Satellite Indices , respectively.But in this research we applied satellite images as input and weexpected to estimate SPI as output.

The final results showed that the best satellite based index for drought prediction by using ANN is TCI.Also MLP is the best artificial neural network model for drought prediction.
