Urban extension which today is a major challenge, is materialized&lt;br&gt;by a rapid urbanization of territories in the margins of cities. Its study in a medium sized city&lt;br&gt;(city of Biskra) is an important issue where it requires monitoring and a detailed analysis of&lt;br&gt;accurate and geolocalized informations. Our research is part of an approach which is based on&lt;br&gt;the use of new geomatics techniques for better analyzing the dynamics of urban extensions. In&lt;br&gt;order to spatialize and evaluate this dynamic, we used a series of Landsat satellite images of&lt;br&gt;medium resolution with three different dates TM 1987, TM 2009 and 2014 for SCEA. The&lt;br&gt;comparison of results obtained confirm that the urban area has increased from one year to&lt;br&gt;another and that the city of Biskra has a medium level of urban sprawl.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Decembre 2016</style></issue></record></records></xml>
