Land Use/Land Cover Classification Using Remote Sensing Techniques . A Case Study AL Mazraa Sub-District .


Abstract in English

Studying of land use changing Detection needs to the speed of implementation to convoy the changes on the ground. the traditional ways in the analysis and visual interpretation of the images and field studying need a lot of time and effort. So The objective of this search is to classify group images (Landsat TM , ETM+) taken in different dates automatically, and then to calculate the area of each land use/land cover, during the years studied (1990 -2000- 2010) and comparison areas to identify the most important changes occurring during that period.
