Tropical forests are major repositories of biodiversity. In North Kharang Forest sub range, Chhattisgarh Forest Land Use/ Land Cover (FLULC) has been analysed by using Remote Sensing & GIS. The FLULC analysis for year 2013 through remote sensing technique indicates that dense sal forest has been found in all the compartments of the sub range but maximum in compartment no. P-110 as 1.20 km2 (24.39%) and P-109 as 1.09 km2 (22.89%). The moderately dense sal forest has been recorded in compartment no. P-111 (1.20 km2; 28.30%), P-130 (1.05 km2; 22.05%) and P-109 (0.88 km2; 18.48%) respectively. The other classes of FLULC has been also recorded in each compartments of the sub range. Shorearobusta has found the dominant forest tree species followed by Terminalia tomentosa, anogeissuslatifolia, Abelia chinensis, Lagerstroemia parviflora, etc. in the study area. The forest condition in the sub range is healthy and untouched.
