ملخص البحث المنشور:
The expansion of tourism in Petra following the Middle East peace process in the early nineties has resulted in a frenzy of infrastructure and urban expansion never witnessed before. Poor planning and unchecked growth led to serious problems. Several conservation plans had been created before and after the peace between Jordan and Israel. However, the implementation of such plans was never completed due to their ambitious requirements and taxing financial demands. This chapter illustrates the use of remote sensing and GIS to study the environmental and cultural heritage impacts of tourism development.
