Land Use Land Cover Mapping in Dhamangaon Railway, MH with the help of GIS Software and Remote Sensing

Abstract

Mapping land use land cover changes at regional scales is essential for a wide range of application, including, landslide, erosion, land planning, global warming etc. The aim of the project is to develop an action plan for land use cover mapping is the process of creating and implementing plans.
