changes of the Coimbatore Corporation for the period of 2011 and 2021. Coimbatore Corporation is located in Coimbatore district, Tamil Nadu state and its geographical area are 257.04 square kilometers. The temporal analysis was conducted using two satellite images and multiple vector data. ArcGIS Pro image classification and machine learning packages are used to capture building footprints and road networks. The satellite images are classified into four major classes: water bodies, agricultural land, built-up areas, and others. Further, the classified images were reclassified into nine urban land use classes. ArcGIS Pro ML-based segmentation and supervised classification method are used to classify images and capture vector data. The change detection analysis showed an increase in residential, Commercial, and Industrial areas due to raid urbanization.
1.1. Objective of the Study The objective of the study is:
1. INTRODUCTION Urban areas in the developing world are under consistently high pressure from the growing population. Rapid urbanization has a significant impact on the condition of the urban ecosystem and its surrounding suburban and rural areas. In India, urban areas are experiencing a highly accelerated pace of growth after independence. A variety of factors, such as the importance of locality, laws related to land, structure of the land, socioeconomic conditions, transportation facilities, market facilities, industrial development, investment pattern, cost of land, and local government economic policy, etc. influence the demand for land. However, the ever-increasing population influx in the urban areas and the physical expansion of the built-up area beyond the city limits are recognized as important factors contributing to raising the demand for more land as well as land use changes. Studying and understanding past and current land use help city planners prepare good development plans. Analysing the land use changes will provide future insights into land use trends for each category. GIS and Remote Sensing helps to build and monitor sustainable urban areas with the recent advancement in remote sensing, geographic Information System, computer technology, and programming languages. It is possible to
