Abstract Land use Land cover change study is veritably important aspect of the natural coffers data base study. The present study aims to find out the LULC features of Aghanashini swash receptacle of the Western Ghats region, Karnataka, India. The Landsat 8 OLS satellite imagery are used for relating the land use/land cover classes. ERDAS IMAGINE software is used to define the land use and land cover features of study area. The land use and land cover analysis of Aghanashini river catchment area has been tried grounded on thematic mapping of the area using satellite image.

Key Words; Land use and Land cover, Remote sensing and GIS Techniques, Aghanashini river, Landsat satellite 8 OLS.

I. INTRODUCTION

The LULC pattern of a region is an outgrowth fig.1.0 study chart of Uttara kannada natural and socio economic profitable factors and their applications by man in time and space. Land cover is becoming a scarce resource due to immense agricultural and demographic pressure. Using of Remote sensing technique for accurate evaluation of the land cover mapping is gaining main concern in recent times. Further Quantification of land covers changes by using latest tools and techniques such as remote sensing, GIS and GPS along with ground truth data/ google earth data can generate sound scientific methods of natural resources conservation. Therefore, efforts have been made in this direction to study the changes in land covers in Aghanashini river basin of the Western Ghats region, Karnataka.

II. STUDY AREA Place Uttar Kannada District Longitude 74º05' to 75º 05' E Latitude 13º55' to 15º32' N

Study area is considered Aghanashini river basin of the western Ghats region, Karnataka.

    With reference to above table 5.6, LULC impact analysis has been performed with an overall classification accuracy

  4. CONCLUSIONS

    • RS has proved it is the important tool for non-stop supervision and quantification across varied spatial and temporal scales which are else not possible to attempt essay traditional mapping techniques.

    • The above presented work demonstrate systematic approach of LULC mapping by using the ERDAS IMAGINE & GPS data for generating estimates of different areas acquired in the Aghanashini river basin.

    • The total catchment area of Aghanashini River is estimated to be 1456.017 km2, the forest and agricultural land occupied the major part of the river basin with 68.61 and 13.70 percent of the total area.

    • And the other classification like Built-up land, grassland, water bodies, wetlands, wastelands, and other minor groups have occupied areas in a very small extent, i.e about below than 8 percent of the sum area.

    • The redounded drainage of catchment area is dendritic in nature.

  5. SCOPE FOR FUTURE WORK

  • The above study for the Aghanashini river basin can be continued through the comparative analysis of LULC changes over the decades to the present time.

  • This present study can also be continued for future flood forecasting especially in North Karnataka.
