 Introduction

•Land use and land cover change is considered a major factor for
global change and its change are constantly happening in my district.
•As a result of land use and land cover change, there is a huge
negative impact on our agriculture.
•Observing change in vegetation and forest canopies (MacLeod and
Congalton,1998).
•Land covers of the study area were mapped for 1995, 2005, 2015,and
2022 using Landsat 5and 8 surface reflectance

 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY:

 Chapai Nawabganj is a district of Rajshahi division in northern part of

Bangladesh (1703 Km^2).
 People are changing the land by building houses, various factories, various
institutions in my district.
 Land use and land cover changes are reducing agricultural productivity. Which
is causing serious damage to our country's economy.

Objectives

 To detect the land use and land cover from 1995,2005,2015,and 2022.
 To land use and land cover change.
 To analysis the land use and land cover change due to urbanization.

 Result and Discussion:

 Reduce the agriculture and increase the urbanization.

 Change the vegetation area.
 We have been known about the planning and management of land use.
 The results of the study will be presented in the form of land use and land cover maps over Chapai-nawabganj
for the years 1995, 2005,2015 and 2022. The change detection analysis will be used to identify the changes in
land use and land cover due to urbanization.

Conclusion

 Land use and land cover change is not a rapid change. For this reason people are changing the land by building
houses, various factories, various institutions. .
 Due to the increase of urbanization, it affects the road transportation system.
