“…For nearly three decades, extensive research efforts have been made for urban change detection using remotely sensed images (Gomarasca et al, 1993;Green et al, 1994;Yeh and Li, 2001;Yang and Lo, 2003;Haack and Rafter, 2006). These studies have been supported through either an image-to-image comparison or a post-classification comparison.…”

“…Since the end of the 1980s, the wider availability of digital multispectral satellite imagery, such as LANDSAT-(E)TM and SPOT, has stimulated the investigation of the potential of these data for the automated spatially continuous mapping of urban surface types required for ecological indicator calculation (Cabral, 2007;Gomarasca et al, 1993;Jat et al, 2008;Lo, 1997;Lu and Weng, 2004). These analyses have been constrained by the limited spectral resolution characterising the broad multi-spectral bands of these satellite systems.…”

Urban ecological indicators allow the objective and quantitative characterisation of ecological conditions in a spatially continuous way by evaluating the influence of urban surface types with respect to ecological functions and ecosystem services. Although the concept had already been developed in the 1980s, the variety of existing indicators had not been widely applied yet in urban planning practice, because of the high manual mapping effort that is required for spatially differentiated urban surface mapping. This paper presents a new automated remote sensing and GIS-based system for the flexible and user-defined derivation of urban ecological indicators. The system is based on automated surface material mapping using airborne hyperspectral image data and height information. were validated using results from field-based reference mapping that had been carried out for selected city blocks situated in both cities. An accuracy assessment for these reference city blocks has revealed mean errors of approximately 4 %, confirming the suitability of the developed automated GIS-based system for flexible and efficient indicator calculation.

“…Later on, the higher spatial resolution data were available with 10m to 20 m enable mapping with more detail with the scale 1:100 000 to 1:25 000 for instance to assess the compact urban area on European cities [4] [19]. The higher spatial resolution is capable to provide a notable contribution on rural-to-urban land conversion [18][19][20], including in estimating housing and population density [21][22][23][24].…”

Abstract. While remote sensing applications represent a major though still underused source of urban data, the proposed combination between remote sensing and Geo-information System (GIS) in urban and regional planning is not fully explored. In order to measure changes in land use, the need of platform in monitoring, recording, and predicting the changes is necessary for planners and developers. In advance technology of mapping process, remote sensing and GIS as tools for urban planning are already recognised. But, due to lack of implementation and awareness about the benefits of these tools, these terms look unusual. Therefore, this paper reviews the history of remote sensing and GIS in urban applications, technical skills and the challenges, and future development of remote sensing and GIS especially for urban development particularly in developing countries.
