<p align="justify">Land cover changes have a significant contributing to influence global climate changes. Land cover changes especially increasing built-up area caused by increasing the number of population. Increasing of built-up area and decreasing of vegetation area will make the variance of land surface temperature (LST). This research aimed to identified realtion between land cover changes and land surface temperature changes in Regional Metropolitan Bangkok. Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery from 1995 and 2006 and LANDSAT 8 OLI (Operational Land Imager) and TIRS (Thermal Infrared Sensor)imagery for 2015, were utilized to assess land cover classification and retrieval land surface temperature (LST). Remote sensing and geospasial information science (GIS) techniques are used to detect the realtion land cover changes and impact on the land surface temperature (LST). It was found that Bangkok Metropolitan Region has land cover changes especially increased of built-up area as 19% and decreased of vegetation area as 20% of total area. Land cover changes has followed with land surface temperature changes. Average land surface temperature of Bangkok Metropolitan Region has increased from 25.12oC in 1995, 25.65 oC in 2006, and getting higher to 26.05 oC in 2015.The relationship between land cover changes and land surface temperature changes does exist that is built-up area as a significant land cover to give influence of increasing average land surface temperature, meanwhile the vegetation area provides positive impacts of controling average land surface temperature.<p align="justify">
