pThis book documents research conducted on the analysis of urban growth and sprawl by using remote sensing data and GIS techniques. The research was conducted between 1980-2010�in the city of Kolkata, India. The�aim of the research�was to use metrics that�were less demanding in terms of data and computation than normal metrics. However, it has been found that most of them�were�inferior in capturing insights of urban sprawl.
For this book, some of these metrics have therefore been�modified and new ones are proposed. The research focuses on�problems associated with the analysis of urban growth by using remote sensing data from a technological perspective./p
