Relationship Of Urban Development With The Heat Islands, Trabzon Case Study
Abstract
Trabzon, a developing port town province that is located near the Black Sea region of Turkey. Trabzon, the 29th most crowded province of Turkey shows the intensity of urbanization on the coastal zone. The reason for this is that the settlement areas are mostly available in coastal areas and the province is mostly covered with rough terrain. The province also has plenty of rainfall due to its climatic characteristics and has a vegetation of dense forests. It is known how important urbanization is in terms of planning processes. For this reason, urban development should be determined in a short time and with high accuracy. Remote sensing data and methods are among the most common methods for local administrators and planners. In this study, it is aimed to examine the urban development of Trabzon province by using various remote sensing methods and data. Depending on the characteristic of urban development within the boundaries of the province, the change in the artificial surfaces has been investigated by using optical remote sensing methods in the selected test region. For this purpose, LANDSAT images of the study area, 1989, 2000, 2006 and 2018 were provided. Pixel-based supervised classification was applied to the images and the land use and land cover (LULC) classes of the study area were determined. In the second stage of the study, the development of artificial surfaces was investigated by using thermal remote sensing methods. For this purpose, the surface temperature map of the region has been established. As a result of the study, the urban development and change taking place in Trabzon by using different remote sensing data and methods were examined.
