Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2016, Vol 9, Issue 42

Abstract

The aim of thisstudy is to determine the surface area and various morphometric features of Turkey's three largest deltaplain (Çukurova, Yeşilırmakand Kizilırmak deltas) using GIS (Geography Information System) and RM (Remote sensing technology) method. For this purpose, the delta plains primarily limited by geology and topography maps. And then various morphometric calculations were made using different computer programs. The measurements are made with graph paper to make the consistency ofthe results. And it was observed that the results were consistent.
