Mapped Information Systems containing the data of lands from where the corridors pass, and the applications used are important tools for the improvement of vegetation monitoring. In this paper, we suggest a concept of satellite stereo images to recover 3D-Digital Elevation Model (DEM) to track the dangerous trees that can strike power lines to cause blackouts. Blackouts occurring due to vegetation encroachments can cause massive damages which become a source of electric supply interruption to industries, businesses, and residential areas. Therefore, this new concept of satellite stereo images will prove to be low cost, less time consuming and a more accurate for the transmission line inspection against the dangerous vegetations. © 2011 IEEE. date: 2011 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84857065473&doi=10.1109%2fNatPC.2011.6136337&partnerID=40&md5=d78db616086ff09bb062e95c65a0a9a1 id_number: 10.1109/NatPC.2011.6136337 full_text_status: none publication: 2011 National Postgraduate Conference - Energy and Sustainability: Exploring the Innovative Minds, NPC 2011 place_of_pub: Perak refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781457718847 citation: Ahmad, J. and Malik, A.S. and Xia, L.
