The present study was carried out in Bali Island of Sundarban delta, Gosaba block, 24 Parganas (South) district of West Bengal to analyze changes in land use/land cover features between the time period of 2005 and 2015 using high resolution satellite images combined with ground truth data. Time line analysis of land use/land cover of the study area reveals that agricultural land are converted into aquaculture ponds (20.04 ha) and settlements (48.87 ha) with positive change in rabi cropped area that increased by 206.92 ha. in the year of 2015. The mangrove forest area (12.29 ha) has been found to be converted into deforested lands. Advancement in geospatial techniques and easy availability of high resolution satellite data facilitate precise change monitoring amongst the land use/land cover features between two time period.
