Land cover change detection in northern Belarus
نویسنده
چکیده
Study deals with the land cover dynamics analysis using remote sensing data over urban, suburban area in northern Belarus (Polotsk and Novopolotsk cities and surroundings) over the period 1994 – 2002. SPOT 3 and 5 images are used for the study. Land cover change detection is conducted using image differencing and post-classification comparison methods. Several classification methods are tested in order to obtain the best classification results to produce single date maps and change map.

Land cover/land use categories are relevant components in land management. Understanding how land cover/land use change over time is necessary to assess the consequences of humans and natural stressors on the earth’s environment and resources. The aim of the study was to map and monitor the spatial and temporal change in land cover/land use for the periods of 1977, 1991 and 2016 and to predict ...

Institutional settings play a key role in shaping land cover and land use. Our goal was to understand the effects of institutional changes on agricultural land abandonment in different countries of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union after the collapse of socialism. We studied ∼273 800 km2 (eight Landsat footprints) within one agro-ecological zone stretching across Poland, Belarus, Latvi...

The earth is continually being influenced by some actions such as flood, tornado and human artificial activities. This process causes the changes in land cover type. Thus, for optimal management of the use of resources, it is necessary to be aware of these changes. Today’s remote sensing plays key role in geology and environmental monitoring by its high resolution, wide covering and low cost...
