- Abstract
Satellite imagery has proven its skills in the field of evaluating and supervising land use and land cover (LULC) for better eco-friendly management. High-resolution and high-quality datasets can improve LULC classification when implemented with various Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models. DL requires high-end computation facilities but can give better accuracy results, whereas ML algorithms require learning from humans to make decisions, but its implementation is easy. In this study, the Sentinel-2 satellite imagery dataset is used to study the land statistics of Union Territory, i.e., Chandigarh. The major classes of this study are urban, water bodies, forests, and bare land. In this paper, LULC classification is analyzed using Random Forest (RF). RF model gave an overall accuracy of 96.6%. All the results have proved that RF is delivering the best accuracy among all the other models. This research has a broad spectrum of applications, such as monitoring and mapping land use and land cover areas using ML algorithms.
