Abstract

Land use/cover changes in Manali tehsil of Kullu district located in Himachal Pradesh were examined using Landsat TM-5 images of 1989 and 2011. The satellite images have been radiometrically corrected. The supervised classification was applied on the images from both years for mapping of different land use/covers. The matrix analysis was applied for assessing the changes in land use/cover during the period of 1989–2011. The study reveals that areas of forests and grasslands have decreased in size. The areas under agriculture, bareland, water, and built-up land have increased. The built-up land mainly expanded on agricultural and forests land, while the agriculture land primarily encroached upon the forests.
