Abstract

Oil spill pollution poses one of the most serious threats on marine and coastal environments. The present situ-ation of oil pollution in river mouth, continental shelf and ocean due to the oil and gas industry and marine traffi c damages the marine environment and causes huge economic losses. Besides the microwave remote sensing, optical remote sensing can also be used eff ectively in the detection and classifi cation of oil spill. This article presents the method of interpreting Landsat 7 ETM+ multispectral images with medium spatial resolution to detect and classify oil spill for monitoring and minimising damages.
