Abstract – The city can expand in a variety of ways, and
people to a city. This is owing to the large number of people from the region's rural and urban areas who are looking for better jobs and living conditions.
understanding the patterns of urban expansion can help explain the big picture, which can help the city expand in a variety of ways. In recent decades, cities with more amenities have developed more quickly. Surat is working to become a smart city, thus infrastructure efficiency and effectiveness must be a primary concern. The City Transformation Strategy intends to provide information on the city's economics, livability, and vital urban services by identifying and measuring the infrastructural requirements for development. Although more human capital, smaller businesses, and a broader variety of production enhance urban expansion, the exact pathways by which these effects spread remain uncertain.
1.1 Urban Expansion
Key Words: Urban expansion, GIS software, Land use
The rate at which a city's population grows is referred to as urban growth. This is the effect of urbanisation, or the migration of people from rural to urban areas. A country's economic development may improve as a result of urbanisation. The expansion of a metropolitan or suburban area into the surrounding environment is referred to as urban growth. It can be used as a barometer of a country's economic health because the effects of urbanisation have a direct impact on the country's economic progress. The greater the metropolitan area's growth, the more jobs it generates, and so economic growth occurs.
1. INTRODUCTION
1.2 Parameters of Urban Expansion
Cities all around the world have experienced a number of economic, social, and environmental issues in the last 40 years, including fast population increase and socio-spatial transformations. In underdeveloped countries, these factors have a big impact on urban areas. Approximately 54 percent of the world's population currently resides in cities, with this figure anticipated to increase to 66 percent by 2050. Furthermore, increased urbanisation in emerging countries has had a significant impact on relationships between citizens, the corporate sector, civil society, and government. Concerns regarding democracy, decentralisation, and governance have arisen as a result of this. To address these concerns, local governments must strike a balance between the development of urban economic competitiveness and the seemingly unavoidable social issues that globalisation has brought about, such as urban poverty, unemployment, and rapid population increase.
2. CASE STUDY
Growth trends, directions, and factors differ from one city to the next. Determine the elements that influence Surat City's (West Zone) growth pattern and direction, as well as the growth patterns in the study area. The size, strength, and technology of an urban area, as well as the rate at which its population rises and extends, are all factors that influence urban expansion. Urban population increase is the foundation of urban expansion in general. Urban development, along with technical advancement, innovation, and population expansion, is a primary factor in luring

This research has been described as analysing future city expansion, monitoring that growth, and identifying land-use changes, in other words, determining land-use changes plays a vital part in urban development.
To supply essential services such as water, sewage, and power, urban planners need information about the rate of growth, pattern, and extent of sprawl. Most sprawl areas lack essential infrastructural facilities due to a lack of such knowledge.
