Peak Overall Accuracy Achieved by VGG19-RF
Accurate LULC maps are translated into actionable sustainability indicators for Najran. This includes identifying areas for crop rotation, safeguarding agricultural buffers, and prioritizing irrigation efficiency based on vegetation and water body delineation.
Actionable Insights for Najran's Agricultural Future
Our classification reveals that vegetation areas comprise 14-25%, while bare ground is 9-22%. This data helps agricultural engineers identify land degradation risks and pinpoint optimal locations for cover cropping and conservation tillage to reduce soil erosion. Water body delineation (with 98.9% precision for VGG19-RF) guides efficient irrigation and groundwater recharge efforts, crucial for arid regions.
The model provides precise measurements of built-up area encroachment, essential for urban planners to safeguard agricultural land and manage growth in line with sustainable development goals.

Smart Urban Planning for Najran's Growth
The consistent identification of built-up areas (20.02% to 32.75%) allows urban planners to quantify encroachment into agricultural buffers and support infrastructure planning. High-fidelity models, like VGG19-RF, prevent misallocation of strategic planning resources due to confusion between bright built-up surfaces and bare soil, ensuring sustainable urban expansion management.
The high overall accuracy and Kappa coefficients of our top models provide a reliable evidence base for policymakers to enforce land zoning, monitor afforestation programs, and track sustainability progress aligned with Saudi Vision 2030.
