Abstract

Identifying impervious surfaces for monitoring urban expansion is important for the sustainable management of land resources and the protection of the environment. Remote sensing provides an important data source for urban land use/land cover mapping, and these data can be analyzed with various techniques for different purposes. If the aim is to extract information easily and rapidly, using spectral indices is the most appropriate solution, and there are many indices created for this purpose. The study carried out on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, Esenyurt, the most populous district of Istanbul, was investigated using Sentinel 2 MSI image, with eight urban spectral indices and three vegetation indices. In addition, classification was made, and the results were evaluated. As a result of the urban index applications, it has been seen that the roofs are more or less mixed with the bare soil areas, and Normalized Difference Tillage Index (NDTI)gives the best results. Accuracy assessment is performed for index results and classification using the same points, and due to the urban area density in the application area, it is determined as 0.95% and 0.95% for NDTI and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and 97% for classification, respectively. In GEE, a high (-0.79) negative correlation is observed between May mean values and 2007-2022 population data when the NDVI time series was applied to the entire area within the district borders using Landsat 5 and Landsat 8 images between 1990-2022. The rapidly increasing population in the district leads to rapid urbanization, and green areas are disappearing at the same rate.
