Abstract :
Awareness of changes process, as well as the proper management of land use in natural ecosystems, is of great importance in conservation natural resources. In this regard, the use of remote sensing has become a common approach due to the provision an extent spatial and temporal information. In this research, in order to land use mapping, first, the accuracy of three common methods of pixel-based (maximum likelihood), machine learning (support vector machine) and object-oriented methods were compared. Then, the spatial and temporal changes of land use in a period of 26 years (1997-2023) assessed using six Landsat satellite imagery. The accuracy of image classification methods was evaluated using Kappa coefficient and overall accuracy indices and the change trend was evaluated using crosstab and spatial evaluation methods. Based on the results, the support vector machine method had the highest kappa coefficient (0.71 to 0.98) and overall accuracy (86 to 99%) for all studied courses. According to the results, poor rangeland had a decreasing trend, and the land uses of very poor rangeland, bare soil, and rainfed agriculture had increasing trends. The area of poor rangeland decreased from 962 hectares (44.36%) in 1997 to 489 hectares (22.57%) in 2023, while very poor rangeland increased from 1138 hectares (52.48%) to 1606 hectares (74.05 percent) in the same period. The results of this research indicated that the trend of land use changes in Jayransoo rangeland is towards the destruction of rangelands and with the passage of time this trend is intensifying. Also, based on the results obtained from this research, it is suggested to use machine learning based classification method to prepare land use mapping in future research.
