Abstract. Land cover mapping using remote-sensing imagery has attracted significant attention in recent years. Classification of land use and land cover is an advantage of remote sensing technology which provides all information about land surface. Numerous studies have investigated land cover classification using different broad array of sensors, resolution, feature selection, classifiers, Classification Techniques and other features of interest from over the past decade. One, Pixel based image classification technique is widely used in the world which works on their per pixel spectral reflectance. Classification algorithms such as parallelepiped, minimum distance, maximum likelihood, Mahalanobis distance are some of the classification algorithms used in this technique. Other, Object based image classification is one of the most adapted land cover classification technique in recent time which also considers other parameters such as shape, colour, smoothness, compactness etc. apart from the spectral reflectance of single pixel.At present, there is a possibility of getting the more accurate information about the land cover classification by using latest technology, recent and relevant algorithms according to our study. In this study a combination of pixel-by-pixel image classification and object based image classification is done using different platforms like ArcGIS and e-cognition, respectively. The aim of the study is to analyze LULC pattern using satellite imagery and GIS for the Ahmedabad district in the state of Gujarat, India using a LISS-IV imagery acquired from January to April, 2017. The over-all accuracy of the classified map is 84.48% with Producer’s and User’s accuracy as 89.26% and 84.47% respectively. Kappa statistics for the classified map are calculated as 0.84. This classified map at 1:10,000 scale generated using recent available high resolution space borne data is a valuable input for various research studies over the study area and also provide useful information to town planners and civic authorities. The developed technique can be replicated for generating such LULC maps for other study areas as well.


The study examines land use land cover and change detection in Chikodi taluk, Belagavi district, Karnataka. Land use land cover plays an important role in the study of global change. Due to fast urbanization there is variation in natural resources such as water body, agriculture, wasteland land etc. These environment problems are related to land use land cover changes. And for the sustainable development it is mandatory to know the interaction of human activities with the environment and to monitor the change detection. In present study for image classification Object Based Image Analysis (OBIA) method was adapted using multi-resolution segmentation for the year 1992, 1999 and 2019 imagery and classified into four different classes such as agriculture, built-up, wasteland and water-body. Random points (200) were generated in ArcGIS environment and converted points into KML layer in order to open in Google Earth. For the accuracy assessment confusion matrix was generated and result shows that overall accuracy of land use land cover for 2019 is 83% and Kappa coefficient is 0.74 which is acceptable. These outcomes of the result can provide critical input to decision making environmental management and planning the future.

Urbanization processes are some of the key drivers of spatial changes which shape and influence land use and land cover. The aim of sustainable land use policies is to preserve and manage existing resources for present and future generations. Increasing access to information about land use and land cover has led to the emergence of new sources of data and various classification systems for evaluating land use and spatial changes. A single globally recognized land use classification system has not been developed to date, and various sources of land-use/land-cover data exist around the world. As a result, data from different systems may be difficult to interpret and evaluate in comparative analyses. The aims of this study were to compare land-use/land-cover data and selected land use classification systems, and to determine the influence of selected classification systems and spatial datasets on analyses of land-use structure in the examined area. The results of the study provide information about the existing land-use/land-cover databases, revealing that spatial databases and land use and land cover classification systems contain many equivalent land-use types, but also differ in various respects, such as the level of detail, data validity, availability, number of land-use types, and the applied nomenclature.

Tapaktuan is the capital and administrative center of South Aceh Regency, which is a sub-district level city area known as Naga City. Tapaktuan is designated as a sub-district to be used for the expansion of the capital's land. Consideration of land suitability is needed so that the development of settlements in Tapaktuan District is directed. The purpose of this study is to determine the level of land use change from 2014 to 2018 by using remote sensing technology in the form of Landsat-8 OLI satellite data through image classification methods by determining the training area of the image which then automatically categorizes all pixels in the image into land cover class. The results obtained are the results of the two image classification tests stating the accuracy of the interpretation of more than 80% and the results of the classification of land cover divided into seven forms of land use, namely plantations, forests, settlements, open land, and clouds. From these classes, the area of land cover change in Tapaktuan is increasing in size from year to year.

Klaten Regency is one of the regencies in Central Java Province that has an increasing population every year. This can cause an increase in built-up land for human activities. The built-up land needs to be monitored so that the construction is in accordance with the regional development plan so that it does not cause problems such as the occurrence of critical land. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor land use regularly. One method for monitoring land use is the remote sensing method. The remote sensing method is much more efficient in mapping land use because without having to survey the field. The remote sensing method utilizes satellite imagery data that can be processed for land use classification. This study uses the sentinel 2 satellite image data with the Object-Based Image Analysis (OBIA) algorithm to obtain land use classification. Sentinel 2 satellite imagery is a medium resolution image category with a spatial resolution of 10 meters. The land use classification can be used to see the distribution of built-up land in Klaten Regency without having to conduct a field survey. The results of the study obtained a segmentation scale parameter value of 60 and a merge scale parameter value of 85. The classification results obtained by 5 types of land use with OBIA. Agricultural land use dominates with an area of 50% of the total area.
