Abstract

This study attempts to detect the land use land cover change in the Satara district between 2001 to 2020 using remote sensing technology, geographical information system to estimate the area of each class of land use in 2001, 2011 and 2020. Observations of land use trends and land cover change lead to finding the possible reasons behind these changes. The research findings showed 5.56 percent growth in settlement areas while agriculture areas were increasing 48.65 percent. 2001 to 2020. Recommendations were made for optimum benefit from the study in future land use planning and studies
