Abstract

The variation in vegetation plays an important issue in the economy and the environment. The vegetation-covered area in Babylon, central Iraq for twenty years from 2000 to 2021 every five years has been investigated in this paper. The investigation has been done by using a Geographic Information system and remote sensing data. The investigation involved classifying the vegetation area into low, moderate, and density or high and low vegetation areas. The result shows that the vegetation-covered area has increased for moderate vegetation and density or high vegetation in 2021 to 990 km2 and 406 km2, respectively, from 803 km2 and 280 km2, respectively.
