This book documents research conducted on the analysis of urban sprawl by using remote sensing data and GIS techniques. This book provides an inclusive discussion on urban sprawl, and how they can be analyzed using remote sensing imageries. It compiles the views of numerous researchers which help in understanding urban sprawl; their patterns, process, causes, consequences, how remote sensing data and geographic information system techniques can be used in mapping, monitoring, measuring, analyzing and simulating the urban sprawl. Researchers engaged in urban geographic research will benefit greatly from this book, especially when using remote sensing imageries. Post graduate students of urban geography or urban/regional planning may refer to this book for additional information. This book should also assist academicians when preparing lecture notes and delivering lectures. Professionals in related fields in urban planning will appreciate the methods and models discussed as well as the many citations. It will be useful for undergraduate and postgraduate students, research scholars, teachers, scientist and engineers who are involved with the planning and management of urban planning
