Geospatial Analysis on Transitions of Land Use and Land Cover of Likabali C.D Block, Lower Siang District, Arunachal Pradesh, India from 2002 to 2022.

This study explores the transitions of Land Use and Land Cover of the Likabali C.D. Blocks, Lower Siang District, Arunachal Pradesh from 2002 to 2022 by using GIS, Land sat Series Satellite imaginaries. The Likabali C.D Block is consisting of two Likabali circle and Kangku circle for administrative purpose. The Land Use and Land Cover are being form as part of this research. By using the maps to identify and understand the modifications of Land Use and Land Cover. The maps classified such as forests, agricultural land, open space, and water bodies. Through the Land sat Series Satellite imaginaries the Likabali C.D Blocks landscape have significant change such as the rapid increase of open space and settlement areas and slight change of river sands. However, the agricultural lands likabali circles are decrease. The factors that influence those changes are Urbanization, natural disaster, demography change etc. The GIS was significantly used for spatial analysis and visualization. For more accuracy the field verification are also done for confirmation of land sat data. Through studies they provide right information’s how modification of environment and human activities changes the Land Use and Land Cover of Likabali C.D Block.
