Assessment of Urban Sprawl Dynamics Using Geospatial Technology: Urban sprawl pattern recognition and modeling - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

In India, the population growth associated with unplanned development activities led to urbanization that lacks infrastructure equipment. It also posed a serious impact on resources. Urbanization occurs either radially around a well-established city or linearly along the roads. The impact of urban sprawl leads to the change of land use and land cover in the region. Identifying patterns of urban sprawl and analysis of Spatio-temporal changes greatly contribute to the planning of infrastructure. GIS and remote sensing technologies are very useful in the formulation and implementation of sustainable development strategies. This book focuses on urban sprawl pattern recognition and explores the causal factors. It can be generalized as setting objectives, resource inventory, analysis of the current situation, modeling, and projection.
