TEMPORAL CHANGE DETECTION OF LAND USE/LAND COVER USING GIS AND REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES IN SOUTH GHOR REGIONS, AL-KARAK, JORDAN

This study examines the spatial and temporal changes of land use and land cover in South Ghor, Jordan. Satellite images for the years 1972, 1989, 1999 and 2016 were used for LULC supervised classification techniques, four LULC classes were decided: built-up areas, pastures and bare land, agricultura...
