University campus plans and the development of facilities and surroundings due to design principles are crucial for assuring project integrity and consistency. Tracking and observing the development is challenging for the institutions' designers, controllers, and managers. Remote sensing and satellite images offer tools and techniques to identify the lands and cover by the time to analyze the spatial development patterns. This research paper analyzes the land cover and land use changes at Kırklareli University and Kırşehir Ahi Evran University between 2006-2018, which were founded and developed at the same time with similar factors. A literature survey for campus planning and design briefs of two universities are presented to state the university campuses' objectives and criteria, which are the main rulers for development. The research method utilizes remote sensing and satellite images to observe and quantify the spatial patterns and trends in land use and land cover changes. The study results indicate that both universities have significant land use changes, including converting land to built-up areas, urban expansion, and natural land degradation. The analysis also shows the imperviousness and grassland change in both regions. However, the study's success in observing the development by remote sensing data and satellite images differs due to cases. The study method and findings present a contributing framework to track the development, give feedback and record the actual situation for decision-makers and planners. Besides, the method will also be developed by conducting further analysis with the implementation of generative techniques of remote sensing and comparing them to the institutions' records.
