Satellite remote sensing for urban and land development can be used to gather strategic planning information pertaining to a district or an entire city. High resolution satellite imagery from satellite sensors such as GeoEye-1, QuickBird, IKONOS, SPOT-5 aerial photography and LIDAR incorporated into a GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) has gained popularity among Planners, Developers and Engineers for large scale mapping of any region for most urban and land development applications.
Information from satellite images or aerial photography when combined with GIS mapping is used for analysis in evaluating construction costs as well as environmental impacts of alternative routes for utility and transport corridors; land cover and land use classification; identifying population groups at risk where human intervention is most needed to limit and prevent hazards during development stages.
