Project Abstract

Abstract
Urban land use changes are a critical aspect of urban planning and development, impacting various socio-economic and environmental factors. This research project focuses on the assessment of urban land use changes using remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques. The integration of remote sensing and GIS technologies provides a powerful tool for monitoring, analyzing, and understanding urban land use dynamics over time. The primary objective of this study is to investigate urban land use changes in a specific urban area by utilizing remote sensing data and GIS analysis. The research will involve the collection of satellite imagery at different time points to capture the spatial and temporal changes in land use patterns. Various remote sensing techniques, such as image classification and change detection, will be employed to analyze the land use changes effectively. The project will also involve the utilization of GIS software to integrate and visualize the remote sensing data, allowing for a comprehensive analysis of the urban land use dynamics. Spatial analysis tools within GIS will be used to identify patterns, trends, and drivers of land use changes in the study area. The methodology chapter will detail the research design, data collection methods, data processing techniques, and analytical procedures. The study area will be identified, and the data sources for satellite imagery, land use maps, and other relevant data will be outlined. The research will also discuss the limitations and challenges associated with using remote sensing and GIS techniques for urban land use analysis. The findings chapter will present the results of the analysis, including the identification of significant land use changes, spatial patterns, and trends over the study period. The discussion will interpret the findings in the context of urban planning, sustainable development, and environmental management. The implications of the land use changes on urban growth, infrastructure development, and environmental quality will be critically examined. In conclusion, this research project will contribute to the understanding of urban land use changes using remote sensing and GIS techniques. The findings will provide valuable insights for urban planners, policymakers, and researchers to make informed decisions regarding land use management and sustainable urban development. The integration of remote sensing and GIS technologies offers a robust approach to monitoring and analyzing urban land use changes, ensuring efficient and effective urban planning practices.
