Title: environmental issues in Shyamnagar Upazilla, Satkhira.
Objectives: (i) To know about the major environmental issues in
Shyamnagar Upazilla, Satkhira.
(ii) To analyze the temporal LULC changes because of the
convertion of agricultural land into shrimp cultivation in
Shyamnagar Upazilla.
(iii) To know about the impact of environmental issues on
land use and cover changes in the study area.
(iv) To identify the reason of land use and land cover changes
in the study area for the impact of major
environmenmtal issues.
Brief Methods: Literature review: Literature review is important to identify the
major environmental issues in the study area and how much the
issues has been affected the LULC changes of the study area.
Using remote sensing QGIS to detect LULC changes:
1. Image processing (LandSat images of five years)
2. Supervised classification of Land Use/Land Cover
Classes using QGIS.
3. Accuracy assessment
4. Extract Land Use Data & Map.
5. Ground trothing and questionnaire survey.
6. Assessment of The Impact of Land Use Change.
Questionnaire survey:Questionnaire survey and literatrure review is
important to know about the impacts of major environmental issues
on land use and land cover changes in the study area.

year:
Task to do: 1. To make a flowchart of the manual of QGIS software.
 2. Submit the plan of project work.
3. To learn about the QGIS software work.
4. To continue the writing part of project report.

Progress till date: 13th 1. I am doing my writing part of project report.

November, 2020 2. I have opened an account on USGS earth explorer site
for satellite images
3. I have installed QGIS 3.14 and learnt how to download
satellite images with QGIS software.
4. I have done the band composition and made a shape file
masking on QGIS software.
5. I have made a flowchart of the manual of QGIS software.
6. Made a project work plan.
7. We have been working on supervised classification of
LULC changes by using Qgis software.
8. colour composite of the satellite images,downloading
shape file of Shyamnagar upazilla has already been done.
9. Masking the shape file and the satellite images has been
done.
