Land Resource Evaluation and Site Suitability Criteria Development around the Shivpuri City (M.P.), India, Study using Remote Sensing and GIS
Resumé
Recent research indicates that the human induced conversions and modifications of land cover around the Shivpuri city. Land resource evaluation and Site suitability, though land use is mainly controlled by various biophysical factors like soil, climate, relief and vegetation but the human activities are mainly responsible for the change of attributes of land use modification and conversion. In this paper focuses on weightages overlay GIS techniques for land resource evaluation and site suitability analysis. In order to provide greater details, the input information such as land use/land cover classes, geomorphic units, lithology, soil types and slope have been generated from IRS 1D LISS-III satellite data and SRTM data. These details are categories based on ranking method for various land use/land cover analysis and development. The dynamics of land resource evaluation processes are governed spatial characteristics of inputs and outputs of the land use conditions. The main objectives of the study were: To develop an integrated Remote Sensing and GIS technique to evaluate the relationship between land uses, To identify factors influencing and controlling role in the study area, To evaluate the nature resource categories, To have a quantitative assessment of land resources, To suggest suitable sites for various land use development, The study provides important input for effective decision making for land suitability, future planning and resource allocation. Keywords: Land Resource Evaluation, Weightage Overlay, GIS, Remote Sensing, LISS-III, Site Suitability Analysis and Development
