With the spatial development of urban areas, the changes also occur in the form of land use. When the spatial growth took place in an unplanned way it causes environmental pollution and irregular construction or loss of farmland and natural areas. For sustainable development and environmentally habitable world, this could be unfavourable in the future and a lot of studies are done about spatial growth of cities around the World. At 1980s and after then urban growth increased rapidly across the country and this situation has destroyed the natural areas and the farmland around urban areas in Turkey. Kayseri is one of the most rapidly growing cities during the last 25 years. The main objective of this study is to determine urban growth and landuse/landcover changes of Kayseri. To determine urban development of Kayseri, Landsat TM, ETM and OLI satellite images acquired in 1987, 1999 and 2013 respectively were classified using Erdas Imagine. Furthermore, accuracy assessment has been carried out using high-spatial-resolution satellite image of 2013. Amount of classes converted to urban between 1987 and 2013 were determined with change detection analysis. As a result, it was found that conversions from all Landuse/Land cover (LU/LC) classes to urban have been observed and urban areas has increased in all years.
