| 總結: | The measurement of sprawl using GIS and Remote Sensing (RS) techniques is an area of interest that has been attracting increasing attention since urban sprawl is one of the contemporary issues of cities all over the world nowadays. This research is an attempt to analyze measurement of urban sprawl using three spatial factors which is land use segregation, leap frog and highway strip. This development characteristic has been analyzed using the approach of GIS and Remote sensing applied on every dimension of urban sprawl which being based on quantitative and qualitative methods. The techniques of Remote Sensing (RS) and GIS-based tool relies on the assumption that sprawl is a multidimensional phenomenon which can be measured only within a multiple indicator approach. The analysis illustrates that the land use segregation has indicated that urban sprawl has mainly taken place in a residential area in the study area. The finding has shown that the pattern of spatial factor which contributes to the urban sprawl in Rawang Mukim. Finally, it can conclude that measurement of the spatial distribution of urban phenomenon with the integration of Remote Sensing (RS) and GIS are useful for implementing and managing the development plan of the future. |
