Özet
There are wetlands, wildlife protection areas and natural sites that are important for the ecosystem that hosts numerous living creatures in Turkey. Burdur Lake Watershed, located in the lakes region of the south west of Anatolia, is also one of the watersheds of Turkey which has significance in terms of agriculture, biodiversity and environmental impact values. Furthermore, Burdur Lake is the largest lake of this region and among deepest lakes of Turkey. In recent years, the lake has shrunk due to adverse effects of urbanization, agricultural activities, industrial activities and forest industry activities while its volume also has been observed to decrease. It is necessary to evaluate this change and develop solution proposals for sustainable development thereof. The main aim of this study is to analyze the temporal variation of the Burdur Lake coastal boundary using GIS and Remote Sensing (RS) applications. For determination of the temporal change of land use of Lake Burdur; Landsat satellite images of 1985, 2000 and 2015 belonging to Burdur Lake were used and a SWOT analysis for Burdur watershed was conducted in order to determine the causes of these changes. Strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities of the region have been determined thanks to this analysis and required suggestions have been made as to the issues identified in this analysis.
