As a new high-technology with large amount of information, strong temporal resolution, high efficiency and low cost, remote sensing provided a useful tool for related researches of land use and land cover in different spatial and temporal scales. Firstly, concepts and characteristics of the remote sensing technology were introduced. Secondly, its applications were elaborated in land use and land cover such as land resources survey, land resources change monitoring, land use evaluation, overall planning of land use and land consolidation aspects. At last, future application trends and several aspects noticed were pointed out.

DKI Jakarta is a center of government as well as economy and business of Indonesia, thus development projects in Jakarta continue every year. Therefore, monitoring for land use has to be improved in accordance to DKI Jakarta Spatial Planning. The attempt needs to be supported by continuous data availability regarding land cover condition in Jakarta. The aforementioned data collecting process become easier due to remote sensing technology development. Remote sensing technology can be utilized for analyzing the size of land use area by using classification analysis. It has been found that the level of accuracy depends on the type of classification method and number of training data. This research evaluated the level of overall accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) along with number of data training used in classifying Jakarta land cover in 2017. The results showed that in both methods, the variance of all the aforementioned criteria were getting smaller along with the increasing number of training data. QDA and SVM had similar performance based on overall accuracy and specificity. However, SVM was better than QDA on sensitivity.

Conventional approaches for urban land use land cover classification and quantification of land use changes have often relied on the ground surveys and urban censuses of urban surface properties. Advent of Remote Sensing technology supporting metric to centimetric spatial resolutions with simultaneous wide coverage, significantly reduced huge operational costs previously encountered using ground surveys. Weather, sensor’s spatial resolution and the complex compositions of urban areas comprising concrete, metallic, water, bare- and vegetation-covers, limits Remote Sensing ability to accurately discriminate urban features. The launch of Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar, which operates at metric resolution and microwave frequencies evades the weather limitations and has been reported to accurately quantify urban compositions. This paper assessed the feasibility of Sentinel-1 SAR data for urban land use land cover classification by reviewing research papers that utilised these data. The review found that since 2014, 11 studies have specifically utilised the datasets.

Abstract. Land use/land cover (LULC) changes have become a central issue in current global change and sustainability research. Due to the large expanse of land change detection by the traditional methods is not sufficient and efficient; therefore, using of new methods such as remote sensing technology is necessary and vital This study evaluates LULC change in chabahar and konarak Coastal deserts, located in south of sistan and baluchestan province from 1988 to 2018 using Landsat images. Maximum likelihood classification were used to develop LULC maps. The change detection was executed using post-classification comparison and GIS. Then, taking ground truth data, the classified maps accuracy were assessed by calculating the Kappa coefficient and overall accuracy. The results for the time period of 1988–2018 are presented. Based on the results of the 30-year time period, vegetation has been decreased in area while urban areas have been developed. The area of saline and sandy lands has also increased.

Faster pace of urbanization, industrialization, unplanned infrastructure developments and extensive agriculture result in the rapid changes in the Land Use/Land Cover (LU/LC) of the sub-tropical river basins. Study of LU/LC transformations in a river basin is crucial for vulnerability assessment and proper management of the natural resources of a river basin. Remote sensing technology is very promising in mapping the LU/LC distribution of a large region on different spatio-temporal scales. The present study is intended to understand the LU/LC changes in the Upper Bhima river basin due to urbanization using modern geospatial techniques such as remote sensing and GIS. In this study, the Upper Bhima river basin is divided into three adjacent sub-basins: Mula-Mutha sub-basin (ubanized), Bhima sub-basin (semi-urbanized) and Ghod sub-basin (unurbanized). Time series LU/LC maps were prepared for the study area for a period of 1980, 2002 and 2009 using satellite datasets viz. Landsat MSS (October, 1980), Landsat ETM+ (October, 2002) and IRS LISS III (October 2008 and November 2009). All the satellite images were classified into five LU/LC classes viz. built-up lands, agricultural lands, waterbodies, forests and wastelands using supervised classification approach. Post classification change detection method was used to understand the LU/LC changes in the study area. Results reveal that built up lands, waterbodies and agricultural lands are increasing in all the three sub-basins of the study area at the cost of decreasing forests and wastelands. But the change is more drastic in urbanized Mula-Mutha sub-basin compared to the other two sub-basins.

This chapter explores the ability of remote sensing and GIS technology for the preparation of land use land cover plan in an effective manner. It is an established fact that remote sensing products are being widely used for land use and land cover products to facilitate their stakeholders to provide them cost effective and reproducible mechanism to extract meaningful information for the development of infrastructure in particular region at any scale. Remote sensing has produced different high resolution datasets that may be convert into fruitful products by using recently developed image processing techniques. India is vast country, having natural resources as land resources which needs reallocation as per future demands. Present legislation and regulation are hardly enough for sustainable development of land resources.
