Detection of land cover changes using remote sensing and geographical information system.

Rapid urbanization strains a country’s capacity to meet new urban developments, and the consequences brought serious losses of arable land, forest, transforming the spatial pattern of urban land uses worldwide and polluting water bodies. Urban expansions have not only increased the exploitation of n...
