The purpose of this book is to explore the utility of remotely sensed data acquired for land-use /land-cover (LULC) classifications. The Resourcesat-1 Data is a high resolution (i.e. 5.8-meter), multispectral (3 bands: red, green and near infrared) dataset. Resourcesat-1 imagery has been selected for this study because of its low cost and potential for small scale land use and land cover classifications similar to the success the Landsat (30 meter, multispectral: 7 band) imagery has achieved with large scale classifications. The study has been done using a subdivision in Jharia Coal Field...
