The objective of the present study was to assess changes in land use/land cover patterns in the coastal town of Silivri, a part of greater Istanbul administratively. In the assessment, remotely sensed data, in the form of satellite images, and geographic information systems were used. Types of land use/land cover were designated as the percentage of the total area studied. Results calculated from the satellite data for land cover classification were compared successfully with the database Coordination of Information on the Environment (CORINE). This served as a reference to appraise the reliability of the study presented here. The CORINE Program was established by the European Commission to create a harmonized Geographical Information System on the state of the environment in the European Community. Unplanned urbanization is causing land use changes mainly in developing countries such as Turkey. This situation in Turkey is frequently observed in the city of Istanbul. There are only a few studies of land use-land cover changes which provide an integrated assessment of the biophysical and societal causes and consequences of environmental degradation in Istanbul. The research area comprised greater Silivri Town which is situated by the coast of Marmara Sea, and it is located approximately 60 km west of Istanbul. The city of Istanbul is one of the largest metropolises in Europe with ca. 15 million inhabitants. Additionally, greater Silivri is located near the terminal point of the state highway connecting Istanbul with Europe. Measuring of changes occurring in land use would help control future planning of settlements; hence, it is of importance for the Greater Silivri and Silivri Town. Following our evaluations, coastal zone of Silivri was classified into the land use groups of artificial surfaces agricultural areas and forests and seminatural areas with 47.1%, 12.66%, and 22.62%, respectively.
本研究的目的是评估伊斯坦布尔行政区域内的沿海城镇锡利夫里的土地利用/土地覆盖模式的变化。在评估中，使用了遥感数据（卫星图像）和地理信息系统。土地利用/土地覆盖类型被指定为研究总面积的百分比。从卫星数据计算出的土地覆盖分类结果与环境信息协调（CORINE）数据库成功进行了比较。这为评估这里提出的研究的可靠性提供了参考。CORINE 计划是由欧洲委员会建立的，旨在创建一个关于欧洲共同体环境状况的协调地理信息系统。无计划的城市化是造成土地利用变化的主要原因，这种情况在土耳其等发展中国家经常出现。伊斯坦布尔市经常出现这种情况。在伊斯坦布尔，只有少数研究对土地利用-土地覆盖变化进行了综合评估，这些研究提供了环境退化的生物物理和社会原因和后果。研究区域包括位于马尔马拉海沿岸的大锡利夫里镇，位于伊斯坦布尔以西约 60 公里处。伊斯坦布尔市是欧洲最大的大都市区之一，拥有约 1500 万居民。此外，大锡利夫里还位于连接伊斯坦布尔和欧洲的州际公路的终点附近。测量土地利用的变化将有助于控制未来的定居点规划；因此，这对大锡利夫里和锡利夫里镇非常重要。在我们的评估之后，锡利夫里的沿海地区被分为人工表面、农业区和森林和半自然区等土地利用组，分别占 47.1%、12.66%和 22.62%。
