摘要
This research attempts to study the measurement of defining sprawl by using spatial factors indexes through remote sensing and GIS approach. The IKONOS pan-sharpened and SPOT-5 with 1 and 2.5 meters resolution were used and combined with GIS database to analyze the geospatial indicators using spatial factors namely highway strips, leapfrog development and land use segregation these indexes. Kuantan city was selected due to the high growth rate of its population and the rapid establishment of new town area. The finding shows that characterization of these spatial factors has resulted in identifying Kuantan as non-sprawl city. (C) The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
