| Summary: | While remote sensing applications represent a major though still underused source
of urban data, the proposed combination between remote sensing and Geo-information System
(GIS) in urban and regional planning is not fully explored. In order to measure changes in land
use, the need of platform in monitoring, recording, and predicting the changes is necessary for
planners and developers. In advance technology of mapping process, remote sensing and GIS
as tools for urban planning are already recognised. But, due to lack of implementation and
awareness about the benefits of these tools, these terms look unusual. Therefore, this paper
reviews the history of remote sensing and GIS in urban applications, technical skills and the
challenges, and future development of remote sensing and GIS especially for urban
development particularly in developing countries. |
