Quantitative Assessment of Land Use Dynamics in East Jaintia Hills: A GIS and Remote Sensing Approach to Coal Mining Impacts.
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The East Jaintia Hills district of Meghalaya, India, has been significantly impacted by coal mining activities, leading to notable changes in land use patterns. This research paper employs Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing techniques to quantitatively assess these land use dynamics. By analyzing satellite imagery and spatial data over time, this study aims to provide insights into the environmental consequences of coal mining and inform sustainable land management practices.
