Aimed at urban planning as well as environmental management of quickly growing cities, the detection of future urban growth is extremely helpful today. This paper endeavours to detect and assess the present as well as future growth of peri-urban regions of Coimbatore city of Tamil Nadu in India by evaluating the Land Use Land Cover (LULC) changes with the aid of the satellite images. The present research work estimates the LULC changes over ‘3’ decades of 1997, 2009 and 2017 with the aid of Remote Sensing (RS) as well as Geographic Information System (GIS) approaches to effectively predict the urban growth specifically in the years 2030 along with 2040 by employing the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) centred GIS land-use change modeller analysis tool. The outcomes of the study implied that the built-up (BU) land augmented by 12.18% between 1997 and 2009 and 41.03% between 2009 and 2017 in the PU regions. The predicted LULC outcomes specify that those lands would augment between the years 2017 and 2030 by 69.53% and between the years 2030 and 2040 by 29.85%. This rapid augmentation in the BU land calls for the attention of the urban planners and administrators towards the proper planning of the Study Area (SA) to ensure sustainable development.
