This study examines environmental changes in the area of the city of Zadar, Croatia, using satellite imagery to analyze land cover dynamics over time. The research focuses on two locations northeast of Zadar: Station 1 – Pudarica, a former agricultural area, and Station 2 – Musapstan Forest Park, a protected forest area. Both sites are approximately 3 km from the city center and represent contrasting examples of land-use change under urbanization pressure.
