In: Egyptian journal of soil science 2006 v .46 (4)Summary: THE AIM of the present study is to characterize the main soil units of an area covers approximately 8800 feddans, as an attempt to integrate a reclamation plane of Siwa Depression for sustainable agriculture development, using the integration of GIS/RS techniques. Digital Elevation Model (DEM) showed that the elevations varied between 13 m. B.S.L and 1 m. A.S.L. A window of Landsat7 ETM+ (Enhanced Thematic Mapper) image that acquired in May 2002 was selected to represent the studied area. Twenty spectral classes were created using bands 4. 3. and 2 as RGB (Red, Green and Blue bands) throughout the unsupervised classification technique.
