| dc.description.abstract | This report summarizes our evaluation of the potential of Landsat satellite multi-spectral land
cover imagery for GIS-based urbanization analysis in irrigation districts. Three image scenes of
ETM+ (2003) and TM (1993) multi-spectral image data were purchased from USGS through
TexasView Remote Sensing Consortium. The three scenes cover the Hidalgo, Cameron, and
Willacy Counties in the Lower Rio Grande Valley. The images were classified in terms of land
cover categories, and the classified data were overlaid on GIS layout to visualize urbanization in
irrigation districts. | en |
