Abstract
Managing and monitoring of salinity is one of the most important affair in agriculture, specially in arid and semi arid area. For this purpose we have to use new technology like remote sensing and GIS. Most of scientist use maximum likelihood algorithm for mapping soil salinity, but in this method field sampling is necessary. In this study several methods were used for producing soil salinity map. These methods are Brightness Index (BI), Normalized Difference Salinity Index (NDSI), Salinity Index (SI), Yazd Salinity Index (YSI), maximum likelihood and average of regression with some Bands. By analyzing and comparing methods with real soil salinity map, suitable method for this region were: 1. Average of regression with standardized band 1,2 and 3. 2. salinity index method.
