Sažetak
In a complex environment it is difficult to obtain reliable data about pollution impact. Remote sensing methods could be used but the right choice of sensors and methods is required. Jakuševac dumpsite is located along the right bank of the Sava river near Zagreb. As modern methods for garbage recycling have not yet been implemented, Jakuševac is at the moment one of the largest open dump locations in Europe. It is a place of great concern in regard to environment pollution. To obtain information about potential pollution outflows, remote sensing methods have been implemented. Primary concern in pollution prevention in urban areas is water flow protection. Beside open water outflows, there are underground ones that could be detected only by the increase in surface soil moisture. JERS RADAR data have been processed. With a spatial resolution of 12, 5 meters and good water content detection capability of RADAR data, it has been chosen as a method for environment monitoring. The processed data have shown that endangered area is much larger than previously suspected. As a result of this, researching new area for ground control points has been recommended, as well as a continuos remote sensing environment monitoring.
