Abstract
This study proposed the comparative analysis of city planning and land use change by using remote sensing and GIS in Bangkok, Thailand. Bangkok had been developed and faced many land use problems. If the problems were not controlled, it will cause more problems in the future. Therefore, this study suggested the solution to solve occurring land use problems in Bangkok. Which, remote sensing was used to do the land survey and automatically map urban land cover from Landsat time-series satellite imagery. Then, the change of urban area and Bangkok Comprehensive Plan were compared by GIS. And, the results showed that urban area in Bangkok increased 403.99 km2 over the past 21 years. While rural and agricultural zone in Bangkok Comprehensive Plan decreased due to residential area expansion. So, Area Division System and the district plan from urban planning system of Japan can solve the problems by developing the city and controlling urban areas expansion.
