  • Abstract
    The dynamics of remote sensing (RS), a geographic information system (GIS) technique, and the applications of global positioning system (GPS) were used to respond to a wide geospatial need in Owerri Land use, in Nigeria. Promotion (further use) of supervised classification is an exclusive use of scientific analysis to decompose a supervised classification error. This method promoted community and economic development. The term promote, means further analysis for more applications of the error matrix, to gain knowledge of specific land use activities within different land use categories. The project finds that the regimes of the series of satellite imagery hold more data of information than the supervised classification alone. One of such knowledge or information was phase withdrawal of some land use categories, which was shared for agricultural and economic development, transportation planning, and Homeland Security management. The regimes of the land use and land cover change (LUCC) revealed some impact distribution on regional resources. It provided sufficient data and metadata for land use management. The results were geo-database development for land ownership and the Urban Pedestrian Resource Network (UPRN). This network created opportunities for minorities like women, who want to stay closer to home while actively engaged in business. This was due to market applications of a geo-database. The system is recommended for smaller cities, or rural communities with inherent land use management and development problems.
