USING MULTI-TEMPORAL REMOTE SENSING DATA TO MANAGE THE MANGROVE FOR COASTAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Coastal erosion is the interest subject has been taken into account between researchers especially for vietnamese. One of the economic and effective method to reduce the coastal erosion, it means to protect many marine engineering and sea product nursery areas concentrated along coastal line, is the biological method- mangrove planting. In other side, mangrove plays the role of green lung for surrounding cities or towns. Using multi-temporal remote sensing data to detect mangrove changes and manage them, shows their non-replaced advantages it able to cover a large area, where are difficulties of moving around. Case study is taken the Can Gio mangrove forest. It is located in the Southern East Gate of Ho Chi Minh city between 10 o 22 ’ – 1
