However, the classification of land cover plays a vital role for studying and modernizing the land areas. Recently, deep learning (DL) techniques have achieved outstanding performance in the classification of high-resolution images. Different techniques have been employed in traditional methods to identify LULC due to its complex and ever-changing nature. However, these studies have shown improved outcomes despite some restrictions such as inaccuracies and reduced performance. To address these problems, the proposed study introduces a Squeeze Synchronization Layer (SSL) and a Convolve Craft Focus Module (CCFM) where, SSL reduces input data complexity by removing noise and irrelevant information from images using pooling and convolutional operations also, CCFM enhances feature extraction to improve land classification accuracy. The EUROSAT land image dataset is utilized for the evaluation of the introduced model. Whereas, the dataset comprises of 64x64 images, which are captured by satellite Sentinel-2A in ResNet 101 input layer. Although, a SSL is suggested, and a CCFM is implemented in the convolutional layer for classifying land images. However, the efficiency of the system is evaluated by measuring performance metrics such as recall, F1-score, precision, and accuracy values of the proposed system. The accuracy value of the proposed system is 96% of accuracy, 100% of precision, 100% of recall, and 100% of F1-score, signifies the superior efficiency of the proposed model KW - remote sensing KW - land use KW - land cover KW - deep learning KW - eurosat data KW - resnet101 CR - Ayalke, Z., & Şişman, A.
