One operations heterogeneity detection classification calculations satellite images topographic maps. A part Baghdad, Iraq region was selected Landsat group at different periods to detect variance make classifications extracting calculating ​​the changes. Many digital techniques were used extract results, as; change two methods. showed a significant decrease vegetation cover areas after 2015 expansion buildings unincorporated slums due housing crisis. methods results evaluated using ENVI (Environment Visualizing Images) ver. 4.5 written subroutines visual basic 6.0.
