Geo-intelligence-Based Approach for Sustainable Development of Peri-Urban Areas: A Case Study of Kozhikode City, Kerala (India)
The land use and land cover is changing in different parts of the world, the root cause of which is the increasing urbanization rate. The peri-urban areas are transforming due to this pressure, leading to urban expansion and resulting in major changes in land use along the highway. Such peri-urban areas are largely neglected in policy and practice because they are mostly included in the rural category and come as a region beyond the urban administration. Hence, the present study is focused on the analysis of the impact of land use land cover change on the urbanizing region along a highway using geospatial technology. Seven typical nodes were carefully chosen along the corridor and a growth node was identified. An undeveloped node having an area of 5 km2 was chosen as a case study for further analysis and proposal. The entire study area was zoned into three categories (emerging zone, agricultural and tourism zone, and residential zone) based on the prominent land uses for the suggestion of the proposals. The present study can be beneficial to planners, administrators, and policymakers as a stepping stone in promoting the sustainability of peri-urban areas.
