This study has been undertaken to investigate the land use /land cover which is often used interchangeably, a real time work carried for the project. Land cover–refers to the characteristics and surface cover of Earth’s Surface, as represented by natural elements like vegetation, water, bare earth, impervious surface and other physical features of the land. When used together the phrase Land Use / Land Cover generally refers to the categorization or classification of human activities and natural elements on the landscape within a specific time frame based on established scientific and statistical methods of analysis of appropriate source materials. Land cover is the physical material at the surface of the earth. Land use is the description of how people utilize the land for the socio-economic activity –urban and agricultural land uses are two of the most commonly recognized high-level classes of use. The finite land, minerals, water are currently under tremendous pressure in the context of highly competing, and often conflicting demands of an increasing population. So there is an urgent need to improve the productivity and the environment to meet the basic requirements of our growing population and to improve the quality of life. The study area is located in Sangareddy district of, Telangana state. The input data used in this work is satellite Image Resource Sat 2 with LISS 4 Sensor of 5m resolution, and SOI toposheet. The Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System have proved to be very important in assessing and analyzing land use and land cover. The methodology adopted for this thesis is total enumerated through digital analysis which was carried out with the help of ERDAS Imagine software. A detailed accuracy assessment is performed through field visit IndexTerms - LU/LC, satellite image, ERDAS Imagine, GIS, SOI __________________________________________________________________________________________
