| contents | <p>This study assessed the land use and land cover (LULC) changes in Talavera from 2020 to 2025 using Geographic Information System (GIS)-based spatial analysis. The study aimed to identify land cover categories, determine their area and percentage distribution, and analyze spatial changes and trends within the municipality. A descriptive-comparative research design was employed using pre-classified LULC datasets obtained from Geoportal Philippines and processed through QGIS. Spatial analysis techniques, including area computation and post-classification change detection, were applied to compare land cover conditions between 2020 and 2025.</p> <p>Findings revealed that annual crops remained the dominant land cover in both years, although agricultural land decreased by 66.08 hectares, while built-up areas increased by 71.17 hectares. Spatial trends indicated that urban expansion was concentrated near transportation corridors and existing settlements. The observed changes suggest a gradual transition from agricultural to urban land uses which may be associated with increasing development activities and accessibility. The findings demonstrate the usefulness of GIS-based spatial analysis in supporting land use planning and environmental management.</p> |
