Abstract
The use of Landsat satellite image data in Bo Luang subdistrict, Hot district, Chiang Mai province aimed to study land use change during 2002 and 2022 by using visual interpretation. The results found that in 2002 forest area was 236,626.28 rai (89.65%), agricultural area was 23,621.42 rai (8.95%), community area was 2,757.22 rai (1.04%), miscellaneous area was 843.35 rai (0.32%) and water area was 102.41 rai (0.04%). Twenty years after (2022) the forest area was 218,811.74 rai (82.90%), agricultural area was 33,694.83 rai (12.77%), urban and community area was 2,586.22 rai (0.98%), miscellaneous area was 8,751.44 rai (3.31%) and water area was 106.45 rai (0.04%). The total area of 35,971.03 rai or 13.63% was changed during 2002 and 2022. Forest area was 17,814.53 rai or 49.52% decreased and agricultural area was 10,073.40 rai or 28.00% increased.
