Using remote sensing data products and GIS enhances the efficiency and accuracy of data. Timely and reliable information about agricultural land resources, including their nature, extent, and spatial distribution, along with their potential and limitations, is crucial for sustainable utilization. Spatial tools like GPS, GIS, and RS aid in storing and analyzing spatial data, enabling informed decisions in agriculture, land development, environmental protection, and restoration.
