Urban sprawl is a hot topic of global concern with increasing dramatically and impact on ecological environment. But there is not a mature method to explain the detail of process of urban sprawl and dynamic changes. In this paper, the dynamic changes of urban is studied based on 1980, 1988, 1994, 2000 and 2005 five remote sensing images of Shenzhen. It is distinguished three types including inf...
