The expansion of urbanization and unbalanced urban growth has attracted the attention of many urban planners and decision makers to the issues and consequences of urban population growth. In general, monitoring how urban areas are developed on a large scale is very important in order to plan urban development. However, in most cases, the lack of basic information in this area, especially in developing countries is one of the main obstacles to achieve this. With the development of human civilization and urbanization, the demand for artificial light has increased and this growth will continue. Found. Due to its lack of direct impact on daily life, light pollution has remained largely unknown and has rarely been studied. In this regard, the role of remote sensing techniques and data in identifying changes in the physical development of cities and changes in the amount of light is clearer than other methods. Using VIIRS satellite imagery, other satellite, digital and GIS data can measure and measure the physical growth of cities as well as the spatial and temporal distribution and extent of this type of pollution, and can even manage the risk of this pollution and Reach zoning. High-risk and dangerous areas. In this study, NPP images, travel time layer of Landsat 7 and 8 images have been used, which have been analyzed with the help of remote sensing and GIS techniques. The time frame considered in this study is 2012 to 2020.
