| Abstract: | This paper is based on the study done in Rohini and surrounding project area of Delhi. The objective of the paper is to evaluate the application of aerial remote sensing for preparing inventory of derelict land around urban areas. Inventory and monitoring of derelict lands is very important for urban planners and decision makers. Because of unmanageable growth of urban areas, the pressure on rich agricultural land in the urban-rural fringe is increasing day by day, while vast stretches of derelict land are lying unused. These derelict lands can be used for urban development, if properly mapped. An operational remote sensing methodology has been worked out. A classification has been developed and used for this study. Results of the ground truth collected have proved the efficacy of aerial remote sensing for such studies. |
