Land cover classification is essential in urban sprawl. It helps the urban planners and the policy makers to understand their urban communities. Interactive supervised classification (ISC) function in ArcMap can produce land cover classification map. Based on the analysis and comparison of the accuracy of ISC map and land cover classification products, GLC, GLOBC, and MCD, ISC map has the highest user’s accuracy in identifying developed urban area, forest, water body and crop/pasture, and highest overall accuracy, which provides efficient technical support for urban planning and decision-making.
