INTRODUCTION :
• LAND USE - DEFINED BY ECOMOMIC TERMS .
• LAND COVER – VISIBLE FEATURE .
• BOTH ARE IMPORTANT AND ARE REALLY INSEPARABLE.
• WE DEPEND ON ACCURATE LU/LC DATA FOR SCIENTIFIC AND
ADMINISTRATIVE PURPOSE.
• LAND USE AND LAND COVER INFORMATION IS REQUIRED FOR
POLICYMAKING, BUSINESS AND ADMINISTRATIVE PURPOSE.
• WITH THEIR SPATIAL DETAILS ,THE DATA ARE LIKEWISE CRUCIAL
FOR ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND SPATIAL PLANNING.
• LAND USE CLASSIFICATION IS VITAL BECAUSE IT GIVES DATA
WHICH CAN BE USED AS INPUT FOR MODELING ESPECIALLY THE
ONE DEALING WITH THE ENVIRONMENT FOR INSTANT MODELS 3

DEALS WITH CLIMATE CHANGE AND POLICIES DEVELOPMENT.

• HENCE THE COMBINED LULC GRANT A COMPREHENSIVE MEANS OF
UNDERSTANDING THE INTERACTION OF GEO-BIOPHYSICAL,
SOCIOECONOMIC SYSTEM BEHAVIORS AND INTERACTIONS.
• TO PROVIDE MORE USEFUL INFORMATION IN LAND COVER, REMOTE
SENSING IS OFTEN PAIRED WITH GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM
(GIS) TECHNIQUE
• REMOTE SENSING IS THE MAIN SOURCE FOR SEVERAL KINDS OF
THEMATIC DATA CRITICAL TO GIS ANALYSIS INCLUDING DATA ON LAND
USE AND LAND COVER CHARACTERISTICS.

METHODOLOGY :
• LAND USE/ LAND COVER (LU/LC) CLASSIFICATION SUPERVISED
• FOR THIS STUDY, ONLY SUPERVISED CLASSIFICATION WAS
PERFORMED . SUPERVISED CLASSIFICATION ACCORDING TO IS
WHERE THE “USER DEVELOPS THE SPECTRAL SIGNATURE OF
KNOWN CATEGORIES , SUCH AS URBAN AND FOREST , AND THE
SOFTWARE ASSIGN EACH PIXEL IN THE IMAGE TO THE COVER TYPE
TO WHICH ITS SIGNATURE IS MOST COMPARABLE.”
• “SUPERVISED CLASSIFICATION IS THE PROCESS MOST FREQUENTLY
USED FOR QUANTITATIVE ANALYSES OF REMOTE SENSING IMAGE
DATA”. THE SUPERVISED CLASSIFICATION WAS APPLIED AFTER
DEFINED AREA OF INTEREST (AOI) WHICH IS CALLED TRAINING
CLASSES. MORE THAN ONE TRAINING AREA WAS USED TO
REPRESENT A PARTICULAR CLASS. THE TRAINING SITES WERE
5
SELECTED IN AGREEMENT WITH THE LANDSAT IMAGE, GOOGLE
EARTH AND GOOGLE MAP.

UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY (USGS)
• THE UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY, ABBREVIATED USGS
AND FORMERLY SIMPLY KNOWN AS THE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY,
IS A SCIENTIFIC AGENCY OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT.
• THE SCIENTISTS OF THE USGS STUDY THE LANDSCAPE OF THE
UNITED STATES, ITS NATURAL RESOURCES, AND THE NATURAL
HAZARDS THAT THREATEN IT.
• THE ORGANIZATION'S WORK SPANS THE DISCIPLINES OF
BIOLOGY, GEOGRAPHY, GEOLOGY, AND HYDROLOGY.
• THE USGS IS A FACT-FINDING RESEARCH ORGANIZATION WITH
NO REGULATORY RESPONSIBILITY.

LANDSAT SATELLITE MISSIONS :
• THE DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, NASA, AND THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
THEN EMBARKED ON AN AMBITIOUS EFFORT TO DEVELOP AND LAUNCH THE FIRST
CIVILIAN EARTH OBSERVATION SATELLITE.
• THEIR GOAL WAS ACHIEVED ON JULY 23, 1972, WITH THE LAUNCH OF THE EARTH
RESOURCES TECHNOLOGY SATELLITE (ERTS-1), WHICH WAS LATER RENAMED
LANDSAT 1.
• THE LAUNCHES OF LANDSAT 2, LANDSAT 3, AND LANDSAT 4 FOLLOWED IN 1975, 1978,
AND 1982, RESPECTIVELY.
• WHEN LANDSAT 5 LAUNCHED IN 1984, NO ONE COULD HAVE PREDICTED THAT THE
SATELLITE WOULD CONTINUE TO DELIVER HIGH QUALITY, GLOBAL DATA OF EARTH’S
LAND SURFACES FOR 28 YEARS AND 10 MONTHS, OFFICIALLY SETTING A NEW
GUINNESS WORLD RECORD FOR "LONGEST-OPERATING EARTH OBSERVATION
SATELLITE.“
• LANDSAT 7 SUCCESSFULLY LAUNCHED IN 1999, LANDSAT 8 IN 2013, AND BOTH
SATELLITES CONTINUE TO ACQUIRE DATA.
• LANDSAT IS A JOINT MISSION OF NASA AND THE U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. USGS
LANDSAT IS A PART OF THE NATIONAL LAND IMAGING (NLI) PROGRAM. 8

• LANDSAT DATA ARE ARCHIVED, PROCESSED AND DISTRIBUTED FROM THE USGS
EARTH RESOURCES OBSERVATION AND SCIENCE (EROS) CENTER.
WHY REMOTE SENSING ?
• APPLICATION OF REMOTELY SENSED DATA MADE POSSIBLE TO
STUDY THE CHANGES IN LAND COVER IN LESS TIME , AT LOW
COST AND BETTER ACCURACY IN ASSOCIATION WITH GIS THAT
PROVIDES SUTIABLE PLATFORM FOR DATA ANALYSIS , UPDATES
AND RETRIEVAL.
• THE ADVENT OF HIGH SPATIAL RESOLUTION SATELLITE
IMAGERY AND MORE ADVANCED IMAGE PROCESSING AND GIS
TECHNOLOGIES , HAS RESULTED IN UPDATING LAND USE /
COVER MAPS.

STUDY AREA :
• NAGPUR CITY IS LOCATED IN MAHARASHTRA STATE, BETWEEN
21°45 NORTH TO 20°30 NORTH AND 78°15 EAST TO 79°45 EAST.
• THUS IT CAN BE SAID THAT NAGPUR FALLS IN THE DECCAN
PLATEAU REGION.
• NAGPUR IS BORDERED BY AMRAVATI AND WARDHA IN THE
WEST, BHANDARA IN THE EAST AND CHANDRAPUR IN THE
SOUTH. IN THE NORTH, IT SHARES ITS BOUNDARY WITH THE
STATE OF MADHYA PRADESH OF WHICH IT WAS A CAPITAL TILL
1956.
• SO FAR NAGPUR LOCATION GOES; IT IS AT AN ADVANTAGEOUS
POSITION FOR THE MAJOR HIGHWAYS LIKE THE NH-7 AND NH-6
PASSES THROUGH THIS CITY OF MAHARASHTRA.
• THE DISTANCE OF NAGPUR FROM THE METROPOLITAN CITIES
10
LIKE DELHI IS 1094 KMS, FROM MUMBAI IS 837 KMS, FROM
KOLKATA IS 1140 KMS AND FROM CHENNAI IS 1092 KMS.
CONCLUSION :
• THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY WERE TO DETECT LAND COVER
TYPES AND LAND COVER CHANGES THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE.
• INTEGRATION OF VISUAL INTERPRETATION WITH SUPERVISED
CLASSIFICATION USING GIS AND REMOTE SENSING WAS FOUND
TO BE THE BEST COMBINATION OF DETECTING CHANGES.
• INTEGRATION LEADS TO INCREASE IN THE OVERALL
ACCURACY.
• ESPECIALLY THE AREA HAVING SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF
DIFFERENT LAND COVER CHANGES.
• ASSESSMENT OF LAND DEGRADATION ,AND THE FUTURE
PLANNING.
