This paper has been developed to capture the land coverage change in Gazipur Sadar Upazila with the help of remote sensing data of 44 years from 1973 to 2017. After acquiring the study area image of 1973, 1991, 2006 and 2017 supervised classification method has been used to get the accurate information from the satellite image and the whole outcome has been transformed into measurable unit (sq km) and graphs. The accuracy of land coverage was ranged from 85% to 89%. The outcome says that the acceleration of economic growth and pressure of huge population took a heavy toll on the vegetation coverage which decreased -199.7%. People are destroying vegetation coverage for building up settlements and infrastructure. In the year 2017, the map shows that the built-up area increased 312.9% for industry, settlement and agricultural purpose. Moreover agricultural land also drops down from 42% to 32%.  The rapid rate of decreasing vegetation coverage and small amount of existing vegetation coverage only 57 sq km (in 2017) is a red alert for the region. The Sal forest and other special flora species of that region is valuable resource for environment. This paper shed light on the fact that it is urgent to protect vegetation coverage so it will help the authority to make good policies and use other techniques to save vegetation coverage.

Model Based

The Cellular Automata Markov model combines the cellular automata (CA) model’s ability to simulate the spatial variation of complex systems and the long-term prediction of the Markov model. In this research, we designed a parallel CA-Markov model based on the MapReduce framework. The model was divided into two main parts: A parallel Markov model based on MapReduce (Cloud-Markov), and comprehensive evaluation method of land-use changes based on cellular automata and MapReduce (Cloud-CELUC). Choosing Hangzhou as the study area and using Landsat remote-sensing images from 2006 and 2013 as the experiment data, we conducted three experiments to evaluate the parallel CA-Markov model on the Hadoop environment. Efficiency evaluations were conducted to compare Cloud-Markov and Cloud-CELUC with different numbers of data. The results showed that the accelerated ratios of Cloud-Markov and Cloud-CELUC were 3.43 and 1.86, respectively, compared with their serial algorithms. The validity test of the prediction algorithm was performed using the parallel CA-Markov model to simulate land-use changes in Hangzhou in 2013 and to analyze the relationship between the simulation results and the interpretation results of the remote-sensing images. The Kappa coefficients of construction land, natural-reserve land, and agricultural land were 0.86, 0.68, and 0.66, respectively, which demonstrates the validity of the parallel model. Hangzhou land-use changes in 2020 were predicted and analyzed. The results show that the central area of construction land is rapidly increasing due to a developed transportation system and is mainly transferred from agricultural land.
