The study aimed at evaluating the socio-economic impact of landcover / landuse changes in Owerri Municipal, Imo State, Nigeria using remote sensing and GIS with a view to improving quality life social development through its objectives; identify pattern area for period 30 years i.e. 1987 2002 2017, evaluate environmental these predict future area. methodology adopted this involved sourcing sate...

Scale issues have significant implications for the analysis of social and biophysical processes in complex systems. These same scale implications are likewise considerations for the design and application of models of landcover change. Scale issues have wide-ranging effects from the representativeness of data used to validate models to aggregation errors introduced in the model structure. This ...

Mapping, analysis, and monitoring of landuse landcover in micro region is necessary for sustainable land development, planning management. The present study is, therefore, aimed to identify the spatio-temporal change LULC two central administrative C.D. blocks North 24 Parganas West Bengal, India during period 1987-2020. To figure out essence transition, supervised classification along with pos...

Flood occurs as a result of rising global temperatures, more precipitation, increased runoff, and an increase in the rate urban flooding. The goal this research is to calculate flood risk assessment selected catchment Nigerian metropolis Uyo. Secondary data were obtained from Landsat images study area using correlational design. Using supervised categorization landuse area, watershed pattern, l...

Landuse changes that don't follow the principles of land conservation are susceptible to erosion, sedimentation, and flooding. This study aims determine most optimal use scenario in order reduce rate erosion analyse effect change on erosion. research was conducted by collecting rainfall data, soil type maps, slope maps then overlaid using arc GIS calculating value. The simulation is done reduci...

Geospatial data form the foundation of an information-based society. Cell-based raster data are well suited to represent geographic phenomena and help model landcover and landuse characteristics and relevant attributes. Information technologies capable of credible raster map analysis and change detection are needed for integrated regional assessment and development in the 21st Century equipped ...
