Conclusions 2 Introduction • In the last decade, in Laos GIS and Remote sensing (RS) has not much used in countrywide, including agriculture sector did not applied this technique for their agricultural development and land use planning. • A meanwhile, in that times agriculture lands in Laos were transformed from subsistence farming in uneconomic-sized farms to commercial and market-oriented farms. These transformed sometimes happens in improperly ways and induced to change in land use and land covers by despoilment of forest covers and traditional farming system. • The problems above due to lack of an appropriate tool in terms of integrated spatial data on land use/land covers. However, recently GIS and remote sensing has been using in several types of works in both government and private agencies. As we know, GIS and remote sensing have an important role in linkage and analysis of such data, in particular for detection, interpretation, area calculation, monitoring and future estimating. Therefore, this study applied GIS and remote sensing for analysis the land use pattern changes 3 Statement of Problems • After 1999, the landscape in the study area has been changed cause of policy implementation such as rubber plantation and irrigation system were installed in the area, and than this place was changed in dynamics way of land use system • The forest area was destroyed by increasingly shifting cultivation and rubber plantation areas • Lack of an appropriate tool for decision support system in terms of land use decision Rubber plantation Shifting cultivation 4 Objectives • To illustrate the change detection of land use and land covers • To create a tool for decision support system in the watershed land use planning by created land zoning. 5 ... - tailieumienphi.vn
