Abstract/Description: | ABSTRACT Digital image processing was carried out on Landsat 7 ETM+ imagery of 22 December, 2003 to map the land use classes in Badri Gad watershed which is a part of North Western Himalayan watershed of Uttarakhand India and change in land use was compared with the land use of Survey of India Toposheet of 1960. Image elements, obtained by Unsupervised Classification Technique, were correlated with the ground truthing. Satellite data were classified into dense forest, mixed forest, chir pine forest, agriculture, agriculture fallow, agri-horticulture, clear barren and barren with vegetation. It was found that agricultural area, over a period of 43 years i.e. 1960 – 2003, had increased slightly but area under barren land had reduced by 60 percent, which had converted mainly into forest land. |
