Measuring urban sprawls on highway strip parameters using GIS approach.

Urban sprawl is one of the contemporary issues of cities all over the world nowadays, contributes to the inefficient use of land resources, energy and large scale absorption of open space that can otherwise be used more effectively for a land use development activities. It is refers to a specific fo...
