Question

what are the two classification of land use? Explain briefly.short answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

LAND-USE CLASSIFICATION

Land-Use Classification

Land-use classification schemes typically address both land use and land cover. A major land-use classification system developed by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) has multiple levels of classification. The categories within these levels are arranged in a nested hierarchy. The most general or aggregated classification (level I) includes broad land-use categories, such as ‘agriculture’ or ‘urban and built-up’ land (Table 1). This level of classification is commonly used for regional and other large-scale applications. Within each level I class are a number of more detailed (level II) land-use and land-cover classes. For example, the ‘urban and built-up’ class includes ‘residential,’ ‘commercial,’ and ‘industrial’ subclasses.

Crop type identification and succession

There are different methods to provide the land use classification. They are summarized in Chapter 3. Monitoring the crop succession on agricultural lands allows us to establish typologies based on land cover dynamics, themselves linked to the cropping system. This can be done through statistical data mining methods leading to 2D segmentation (space and time) or spatial-temporal segmentations (Carottage method [MAR 13]). Figure 4.4 illustrates the application of this method on a watershed located in Brittany (France). Classifications with segmentation were performed on past multi-year high spatial resolution images (SPOT-HRV, IRS-Liss, etc.) throughout the watershed leading to a typology of temporal dynamics and a mapping of of cropping systems.
