Modelling of population density in urban cities using VIIRS night time light data

The changes in the number of population are one of the important measures for several activities such as land-use planning, environmental monitoring, construction design, soil, water and air quality observation. Urbanization accelerates the development of city and residential expansion. Proper plann...
