Measuring urban sprawl on geospatial indices characterized by leap frog development using remote sensing and GIS techniques

Characterizing urban sprawl using spatial measures requires a concise definition of what constitutes sprawling urban spatial patterns. This research attempt to study a measurement of defining sprawl by using leapfrog development index through remote sensing and GIS approach. The IKONOS pan-sharpened...
