Land-use classification and mapping using landsat 8 imagery for GIS database in Langkawi Island

Land use is a physical property of the land which gives information regarding the function of the land resources. Furthermore, a land use map functions by relaying the information of land use within the area visually. Langkawi Island being one of the main attractions in Malaysia has undergone rapid...
