Can I use the unsupervised classification tool in Arc GIS Pro to analyze how urban expansion has occurred for a particular city? The cities I am interested in are small cities in Northern Africa I want to go as far back as possible so I think that means using Landsat data. Can I then use the unsupervised classification (or other?) tool on this data to compare how land use has changed from decade to decade? I want to figure out the horizontal expansion rate for a city. I tried to run this tool on a Landsat image from 2001 and a higher-resolution Sentinel image, but I received an error/failure both times.
