Abstract
The aim of this research study is to predict and analyze the future urban land cover change of Jodhpur City. Landsat satellite data of 1990 and 2000 were used for examine the LU-LC pattern. For classification and mapping, identified five classes i.e. (1) built-up, (2) other area, (3) vegetation, (4) mining area, and (5) water body. Using supervised classification algorithm, classified images of 1990 and 2000 were derived. To study land cover dynamics and Prediction land cover map (2010 and 2020) in the Jodhpur city , Stochastic Markov (St_Markov) with RS and GIS data is used. The study find out the rate and dynamics of change land cover types in spatial extent. This output result would help to have a assessment of the future situation of urban land changes which would guide the policy managers.
Keywords- Land cover change; Markov chain; Transition Probability, GIS
