| description | The present paper focuses on the
observation and quantification of land cover changes in Iasi Metropolitan
Area during 1993-2009. The analysis is centered upon the built-up space
dynamics and includes the detection of its extension directions and the
measurement of its structural changes by landscape metrics. In order to
obtain the land cover data, some remote sensing images were processed
by supervised classification and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index
(NDVI). In the end of the study, a synthetic statistical analysis of the
change dynamics is performed at commune level, in order to compare the
administrative units by the intensity of land cover dynamics. |
