This study introduces the monitoring system to be established within this project, it aims to determine changes occurring within forested areas, settlement areas and other land use forms located at the peripheral area of Istanbul during consecutive decades. The first phase of the study was completed in 1998 and published, covering the period from 1984 to 1994. This study is the second phase of the first one and implemented to determine land use changes which have occurred on the same site from 1994 to 2000. Standard topographic maps with 1/25 000 scale, forest management maps with the same scale, results of the previous study, orthophoto maps of the year 2000 that were produced from aerial color photographs of the site with 1/5 000 scale, and 4-band IRS_LISS III multispectral satellite data for July 2000 were used as data. The changes in land use within the study area occurring during a six year period were studied. |
