MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT OF URBAN ENCROACHMENT IN EL-MINYA GOVERNORATE USING REMOTE SENSING DATA

Abstract
It was found that the cultivated area in the Nile Valley and Delta are suffering from a serious problem of urbanization. The rate of urban increase ranges between 0.4% in Hassan Basha village and 29.0% in Saft ash-sharqiyah village (El-Minya). The magnitude of increase is more pronounced in the villages, Martin et al. 1988 found that the soils of these areas fall within class 1 and 2 according to their suitability for cultivation. The aerial photographs have offered the advantages of stereovision, large scale, good resolution and restricted manipulation of photo interpretation. The use of the temporal advantage of satellite images allows the authors to monitor, map and evaluate the rate of urban growth in the villages of this study.
