Land Use and Land Cover Mapping Using Digital Classification Technique in Dindori Tehsil of Nashik District, Maharashtra State, India Using Remote Sensing

Abstract

Land use land cover has been a rapidly change in the Nashik district because of rapidly increase the urbanisation. The natural interferences and remotely sensed satellite image have been used to detect the changes.  The Dindori tehsil have use the LULCthis technique,the present study is the aimedto identify those change and model the future trend of Dindori Tahsil. Land use change in Dindori Tehsil has been studied by Remote Sensing GI method for the period 2001 to 2023 years.Dindori tehsil shows a positive increase in agricultural area during the period 2001 to 2023 in Nanashi circle 8.1 in Umarale circle 10.24 in Koshimbe circle 9.15 in Dindori tehsil 1.25 in Kasbevani circle 6.46 in Warkheda circle 1.26 and in Mohadi circle 4.24 Sq.km. Also, there is a negative increase in the non-agricultural area. Also there is a large increase in the settlement and there is a negative increase in the forest area. From this, in the future, planning will have to be done in 7 circles in relation to forest.The main objectives of the said research are to determine the actual land use and its classification in Dindori Tehsil.
