Abstract

Bhubaneswar, the city set up with Anthropocene; is suffering from forest losses, UHI upshot after the golden spike period (1980 onwards). It is associated with environmental, ecological and social challenges with population/economic growth. The symbiosis of urban agglomeration vs. natures deterioration is well felt from fag end of 20th century. Re-greening of Bhubaneswar smart city with involvement of about 1100K stakeholders in 2021 from about 15k in 1950. The research uses the remote sensing big data through GIS technology and using ERDAS software to construct the land use and land cover (LULC) change maps of the study years 1990, 2000, and 2020. The NDVI for the year 2000 and 2020 along with the land surface temperature on winter and summer days are calculated.  There is abrupt changes in built up and afforestation areas at the cost of barren land and water bodies. Reconstruction of green corridor along with building the smart city urges for vertical expansion of the city along with zero slum with uncontrolled migration and population rise.
