Thesis Abstract
Abstract
**
This study focuses on the application of remote sensing techniques to monitor urban expansion and land cover change dynamics. Urbanization is a dominant driver of land cover change, leading to habitat fragmentation, loss of green spaces, and environmental degradation. Through satellite imagery analysis and geospatial data processing, this research aims to quantify urban expansion patterns, analyze land cover changes, and assess their environmental impacts. By understanding the dynamics of urban growth, the study seeks to inform urban planning and land use policies for sustainable development and environmental conservation.
