Abstract

Providing of landing use maps and detecting of land capacity are required to manage of natural resources and environment and planning of land use. On the other hand, it is necessary to detect of the human deriving forces affecting land use change. In this research, we selected Seyed mohaleh and Drasara villages in Tonekabon city. First, were provided the land use maps in 1987 and 2008 by using TM and IRS Satellite images. Second, were investigated the human deriving forces affecting land use change through survey methods. According to results of this research can state that had been destroyed much percents of forests and added residential and agricultural lands in two villages. The most important of land use changes in two villages related to the economic problems (low income) and the economic loss of agricultural activities. Recently, the most important deterrent forces of land use changes are the property market downturn and land price that can prevent of severe changes in land use through the implementation of efficient land use law and supporting of farmers and gardeners in this region. Moreover, the most important indicators in the intensification of land use changes are being a tourist area, increasing of land price and unemployment.
