Detecting land use changes is essential for managers and planners because land use has changed widely. Being aware of these changes can help the policy-making process and solving existing problems. Therefore, preparing a land use map is one of the requirements of any development planning at the national and regional level. Such maps enable managers, planners and experts to design and implement the necessary measures in the field of solving problems and meeting present and future needs by identifying the current situation and comparing capabilities and potentials. Nowadays, due to the high cost of preparing land use maps with traditional and manual methods, remote sensing can help engineers with more accuracy and speed in preparing land use maps and evaluating changes in the region. The aim of the current research is to prepare land use maps of Zabarkhan district and monitoring land use changes in this area from 1996 to 2019 using Landsat 5 and 8 satellite images related to TM and OLI sensors. According to the findings, the uses of agricultural lands, built lands and pastures have increased during this period, while barren lands and gardens have decreased. Built-up lands include urban, rural, tourism (wildlife park, ecotourism residence), industrial, workshop, facilities, communication (regional and local roads), military, mining and water storage resources for agriculture. The highest rate of increase is related to urban and rural uses with 461.43 hectares, equivalent to 54.01% of all uses.

Saeedabad Shahryar sub-district has witnessed rural industrial development (Golgun town) during the last two decades. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Tehran sprawl on economic indicators from the perspective of rural industrial development. The present research is applied in terms of purpose and follows a descriptive-analytical method. The statistical population includes residents of the old texture of Saeedabad village and its surroundings who have experienced the effects of urban sprawl and industry development. The impact of industry development in the region was measured based on two indicators of increasing the local labor market and increasing the added value of industrial products to the region in the form of 6 items. Using the sample estimation method in the regression technique (thumb rule) N≥8k + 50, the sample size of 98 people was determined. The samples were selected by random sampling method and saturated with 85 samples and the completed questionnaires were analyzed in SPSS software. The results showed that the business boom is mainly for the specialized group in Golgun town and to some extent for the villagers and the durability of the population. The industrial development of the village has not had a significant effect on reducing the unemployment rate of the villagers and has only increased the non-native population. The present study proposes strategies for conservation and protection of natural resources, implementation of optimal land use model and support of human resources to balance the effects of rural development from the perspective of industry.
