The Prediction of future LULC will be significant for proper planning of urban environmental management. The present paper is there for an attempt to predict urban growth of 2031and analyze the present growth of Chamarajanagar region (town and its surrounding villages) in Karnataka, India, using Landsat satellite images of 1991, 2001, 2011 and 2019. The surrounding villages of Chamarajanagar town has considered for the analysis, to understand the direction of urban growth and development. Satellite images and geospatial tools were used to calculate and analyze the spatio-temporal urban land use and land cover changes during the study period. The satellite images were subjected to supervised classification of Land use Land cover using Erdas imagine platform. The future Land use Land cover using Land change Model was performed with Markov Chain Modeler of IDRISI SELVA. The final results shows that the Built up area of Chamgrajnagar region has been increased from 631.68 hectares in 1991 to 711.06 hectares in 2001 and 853.35 hectares in 2011 & 898.70 hectares in 2019, Finally to 1084.91 hectares in 2021.
