This book uses spatio-temporal analysis methods to understand urbanization in Indian cities, to explain the concept and impact of global greenhouse gas emissions, and to engage in a discussion about smart cities within the Indian context. It focuses on the major environmental issues in India, which are also prevalent in most developing countries.

This book uses spatio-temporal analysis to understand urbanisation in Indian cities and explain the concept and impact of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It creates a GHG footprint for Indian cities and engages in a discussion about the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and smart city initiatives within an Indian context. Understanding the spatial patterns of land use/land cover (LULC) dynamics in the rapidly urbanising cities of India, the readers will be able to simulate future urbanisation patterns and use spatial temporal analysis as a tool for implementing appropriate mitigation measures.
