Abstract
Objective: Within the scope of this study, the spatial use changes of a university campus has been researched.Material and Methods: Ege University Campus, which has an important place in the world, has been investigated over a period of 10 years by using orthophoto images of 2002, 2006 and 2011. In addition, analyzes were conducted for each year to determine the dominant usage types observed in research subareas.Results: As a result, it has been seen that the agricultural and green open space character that can be perceived in early years has changed because of the new manmade constructions on these land types. Also it has been concluded that in the entire research area, the manmade areas were the most dominant land use type in the three examined years. Also the dominancy of agriculture, vegetation and no – vegetation areas decreased between the years 2002 and 2011.Conclusion: In the light of the data obtained, general suggestions were given to give positive direction to the campus change. Also a proposed dominancy plan developed to increase the vegetation areas’ dominancy overall the campus and to manage a green belt that surround the whole campus.
