Abstract :
This study was applied in Edirne province Havsa district. For determination of land use efficiency of Havsa, satellite image and GIS were used. For this purpose the data of General Directorate of Rural Services which belongs to 1993 year, ASTER satellite images which belongs to 2008 year and topographic maps were used. For performing calculations in ERDAS software unclassified classification applied and 15 classes were formed. For performing supervised classification field work applied. As the result of the supervised classification; dry farming, irrigated farming, rice area, grassland, forest, settlements and water surface land use types were determined. For determining land use efficiency; analog data were digitized and transferred to GIS database. Land use types and land use capability classes of 1993 year converted raster data by using GIS. Land use types of 1993, land use types of 2008 and land use capability classes were compared. As the result of the comparison urbanization and unintended use increased in I., II. and III. class lands. In I. class lands in 1993 year nonagricultural use was 2, 92 % (223, 56 ha) and then in 2008 it was increased to 4, 14 % (316, 56 ha). In II. class lands in 1993 year non-agricultural use was 1, 75 % (405 ha) and then in 2008 it was increased to 4, 14 % (678, 06 ha). In III. class lands in 1993 year while non-agricultural use was 7, 32 % (387 ha) and then in 2008 it was increased to 3, 07 % (748, 31 ha).
