-----------------------------------------------------------------------***-------------------------------------------------------------------Seven distinct LULC classes—forest, irrigated cropland, Abstract: This study presents a Land Use Land Cover agricultural land (fallow), barren land, shrubland, water, and urban land—were delineated for classification purposes. The results provide valuable insights into the patterns and trends of LULC changes in the region, highlighting the impact of anthropogenic activities on the local environment.
(LULC) analysis for Junnar Taluka, Pune District, Maharashtra, using Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information System (GIS). Satellite imagery from Landsat-8 was used to classify LULC categories, including agricultural land, forest, water bodies, and built-up areas. The study aims to analyze the temporal changes in LULC patterns to assess land degradation and sustainable land management strategies. The results provide valuable insights for urban planning and agricultural development The dynamic transformation of land use and land cover has emerged as a crucial aspect in the effective management of natural resources and the continual monitoring of environmental shifts. This study focused on the land use and land cover (LULC) changes within the Junnar Taluka in the Pune District, assessing the repercussions of land and water resource exploitation. Utilizing LANDSAT satellite images from 2009, 2014, and 2019, this research employed supervised classification techniques to analyze and interpret the data. The results provide valuable insights into the patterns and trends of LULC changes in the region, highlighting the impact of anthropogenic activities on the local environment. period from 2009 to 2019. Spatial and temporal dynamics of land use/cover changes (2009-2019) were quantified using three Satellite/Landsat images, a supervised classification algorithm.
The total geographic area of Junnar Taluka in Pune district, Maharashtra, is approximately 1,866 square kilometers, which is equivalent to 186,600 hectares. Total Geographic Area of Junnar Taluka: 186,600 hectares and Built-up Area in 2009:261.24 hectares which is 1.94% 1.2 LULC data based on expected trends in the region. The data is structured for seven distinct LULC categories over selected years.
Introduction: 1.1 The dynamic transformation of land use and land cover has emerged as a crucial aspect in the effective management of natural resources and the continual monitoring of environmental shifts. This study focused on the land use and land cover (LULC) changes within the Junnar Taluka in the Pune District, assessing the repercussions of land and water resource exploitation. Utilizing LANDSAT satellite images from 2009, 2014, and 2019, along with Vedas and Bhavan open source data, this research employed supervised classification techniques to analyze and interpret the data.
