Satellite data has been used to analysis land use changes in this study. Supervised classification has been performed within Eradas software. Topographic sheet No.H43Ql6, H43R4, H43W13 and H43X1 at scale of 1:50,000 are used for the geo-referencing of M.C. map of study area in different time periods. Study revealed that built-up area is increased 432.71 hectares to 1561.62 hectare over the past 21 years, near about 4 times 1989-2011 and agriculture/vegetation area decreased from 2181.93 hectares to ll43.90 hectares during the period.

Abstract


Satellite data has been used to analysis land use changes in this study. Supervised classification has been performed within Eradas software. Topographic sheet No.H43Ql6, H43R4, H43W13 and H43X1 at scale of 1:50,000 are used for the geo-referencing of M.C. map of study area in different time periods. Study revealed that built-up area is increased 432.71 hectares to 1561.62 hectare over the past 21 years, near about 4 times 1989-2011 and agriculture/vegetation area decreased from 2181.93 hectares to ll43.90 hectares during the period.
