Development of Classification System for LULC Using Remote Sensing and GIS

Abstract This article reports the techniques for land classification and development stages that began from 1950 and continuously getting upgraded till now. This is an attempt is to highlight the findings of the research efforts from 220 articles worked in this domain. The land classification was manual till classification processes evolved into numerical and digital with the emergence of technology and the revolution in artificial intelligence (AI) Algorithms. We inventory all the methods used, traditional and recent used in land classification. We touched with the most significant comparisons of the classifications of land use to know the performance of classifiers and the characteristics of both to identify points that help in developing the classification accuracy. This article will be significant for the upcoming research minds to understand the land classification and different techniques researchers adopted, will assist them to select the efficient classifier for their study as well as will motivate them to develop new classifiers with appropriate accuracy.
