Abstract
This chapter introduces the study and research focused in this book. It aims to describe the background, significance, and objectives of the research; overview, questions that are to be answered in the research, and methodological overview. This chapter, as expected from any research-based book, acts as a prelude to all other chapters. The background section briefs the urban growth, sprawl, and the importance of remote sensing data and GIS techniques in urban growth analysis. The significance section documents the importance of current research. Other three sections (research objectives, research questions and methodological overview) will help to shape the readers’ outlook on the research.
