India Abstract: Analysis of land use/land cover change of Sonipat city within the last 20 years is observed in the present study which represents the staged change in land use pattern. The change was based on satellite imagery of Town Directory map 1991, LANDSAT TM Image 1989 and Google Earth Image 2002 and 2011, toposheet at a scale of 1:50000. A number of factors such as socio-economic and political are responsible for the economic development and land use changes. Study reveals that that city has experienced rapid changes in land use, particularly in terms of unplanned residential area and agricultural land. Key Words: Land Use/Land Cover, HUDA and Google Earth Image. I. Introduction The land use/land cover pattern of a region is an outcome of natural and socio-economic factors and their utilization by man in time and space. Land is becoming a scarce resource due to immense agricultural and demographic pressure (Sundara, 2012). Land use change is one of the most important fields of human induced environmental transformation, with an extensive history dating back to antiquity (Wolman and Fournier; 1987). Urbanization is the causes of land use changes. Urbanization is a gift to the human society if it is con- trolled, coordinated and planed. However, unplanned urbanization is a curse. In 2008 more than half of the world’s population was urban dwellers and the urban population is expected to reach 81% by 2030 (UNPF; 2007). Due to the acceleration of the global urbanization in both intensity and area, there is a growing interest in understanding its implications with respect to a broad set of environmental factors including loss of agricultural and arable land decline in natural vegetation cover and climate at local, regional, and global level. The conversion of rural areas into urban areas through development is currently occurring at an unprecedented rate in recent human history and is having a marked effect on the natural functioning of ecosystems (Turner; 1994). Since ecosystems in urban areas are strongly influenced by anthropogenic activities, considerably more attention is currently being directed towards monitoring changes in urban land use/ land cover (Stow and Chen; 2002). Land Use/land Cover change due to human activities is currently proceeding more quickly in developing countries than in the developed world. Present time, changes in land use, especially in developing countries, has involved a decrease in the area of rural land use and an increase in the area of urban land use through urbanization (Dewan and Yamaguchi 2009). Geographic Information Systems within remote sensing have been useful as powerful and cost-effective tools for detecting and analyzing the spatio-temporal dynamics of processes and patterns of urban growth and land use/land cover change at local, regional, and global scales. II. Data Source and Methodology The study is mainly based on secondary data. Erdas9.0 and Arc GIS 9.3 software have been used for the preparation of different thematic layer at second level. High resolution satellite image is best appropriate for mapping urban land use/land cover information on explanation of high geometric reliability, clearness of objects, features in their true shape and size, better appropriate clarity within close proximity to the real world (NUIS, 2008).

Other spatial and non-spatial data also have been used for present study which includes; Topographic sheet No. H43Q16, H43R4, H43W13 and H43X1 at scale of 1:50,000 (Survey of India, Dehradun) 2005-2006, Municipal Corporation map of Sonipat city 2011. The geo- referenced municipal corporation boundary (2011) overlaid on the satellite data communicates the spatial extent of the Sonipat city. Two level land use classification has been used in this study modified from NUIS manual, 2008 (Table 1). Google map was used for better analysis of visual interpretation and GPS survey was conduct of doubtful points and accuracy evaluation. III. Study Area Sonipat city came in the light as a District Headquarter in 1972 comprising the tehsils of Sonipat, Gohana and Ganaur. Sonipat town is linked with Delhi, Uttar-Pradesh and Haryana with Rail and Figure: 1 Location Map of Study Area Road Links.The name of the Sonipat town was formed of the name of Raja Soni or a town called Swaran Prastha during Mahabharta time. This city is conveniently linked with Delhi and Chandigarh by rail but the interiors of Haryana by roads only. Sonipat town is located at a distance of 52 kilometers by road and 44 kilometers by rail from delhi. National Highway No.1 lies 8 kilometers away in the east from the main city.

The city has also well connectivity with the interior of the State as well as the neighboring state of Utter Pradesh Objectives: To analysis the land use change during 1991 -2011. To identify the direction of urban growth. Analyses of land use/land cover 1991 The total area of Sonipat city has been divided in twelve categories depending up to prevalent type of land uses (Table: 1).The broad categorization into two types; built up and non built up has further been subdivided. In the non built up categories agriculture, plantation, vacant, water bodies and waste/scrub land has been included. In 1991, agricultural land was a dominant land use i.e. 66.08 percent of the total study area followed by public semipublic, industrial, planned residential, unplanned residential i.e. 5.13, 3.65, 1.27 and 20.47 percent respectively. Water bodies have been recorded 0.31 percent on the form of ponds and water works. Commercial area has been observed 1.35 percent followed by recreational area, waste/scrub land and plantation i.e. 0.21, 1.44 and 0.11 percent respectively (Figure 2 and Table 2).

The significant change has observed and spread from central part towards the peripheral part of the city. In 2002, agricultural land was recorded 39.05 percent of the study area. It was reduced 27.02 percent. It was shifted agricultural to planned residential, unplanned residential, industrial area and public and semipublic utilities during 1991 to 2002. Public and semipublic area has been recorded 6.04 percent whereas it was 5.13 percent in 1991. It was increased 0.91 percent during these periods. Industrial area has been observed 4.45 percent of total study area whereas it was 3.65 percent in 1991. It was increased 0.80 percent during 1991 to 2002. Planned residential area and unplanned residential area also increased 4.28 and 12.28 percent during 1991 to 2002. It was the impact of economic development and population pressure.

  • EPCA Report on Strategies to Reduce Truck Pollution in Delhi
    1 EPCA Report (October 2015) In the matter of W.P. (C) No.13029 of 1985; M.C. Mehta v/s UOI & others Report on strategies to reduce air pollution from trucks entering and leaving Delhi Environment Pollution(Prevention and Control) Authority for NCR (EPCA) 2 Background The Hon’ble Supreme Court has been concerned about the pollution of trucks entering and leaving Delhi for the past decade. In its order of December 6, 2001, the Hon’bleSupreme Court had banned entry of non- destined commercial transit traffic effective from January 15, 2002. These vehicles could enter only on payment of toll and tax for transportation of goods to and from Delhi. Then in its order of 11.2.2005, 11.3.2005 and 1.8.2005 the Hon’bleSupreme Court had ruled,“that no corridor joining different highways should pass through Delhi”. Subsequently, the Supreme Court had directed to construct Western Peripheral Road also known as Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway and Eastern Peripheral Expressway to take the non-destined trucks away to decongest Delhi. Subsequently, EPCA has continued to monitor progress in the above directions and has brought the matter of delay and non-implementation of the above directions to the attention the Hon’bleSupreme Court. The Hon’ble Supreme Court, driven by concern for growing pollution, has passed orders and directed for expeditious completion of the bypass. EPCA is constrained to bring the matter to the attention of the Hon’ble Court and to look for alternative strategies to control truck traffic for the following reasons: a. The ban on non-destined vehicle entry to Delhi has proved to be difficult to enforce.
