Abstract

The study area of Tiruvannamalai District lies between 11. 55° to 13. 15° North Latitudes and 78.20° to 79.50° East Longitudes. The North and west of Tiruvannamalai is covered by Vellore district and the southwest is by Krishnagiri District. Both Villupuram and Kanchipuram Districts are located in south and east side of Tiruvannamalai District respectively. The total geographical area of the district is 6191 sq.km. This paper is given total nine-fold classification of land in the district.  The data has been used two different time periods (2007-08 and 2011-12). The present study deals with based on the secondary data of Gwritten.
