Abstract :Köyceğiz Lake is one of our country’s most critical coastal barrier lakes, rich in sulfur, located at the western end of the Mediterranean Region. Köyceğiz Lake, connected to the Mediterranean via the Dalyan Strait, is one of the 7 lakes in the world with this feature. In this study, water change analysis of Köyceğiz Lake was carried out by integrating the Object-Based Image Classification method with CART (Classification and Regression Tree), RF (Random Forest), and SVM (Support Vector Machine) algorithms, which are machine learning algorithms. SNIC (Simple Non-iterative Clustering) segmentation method was used, which allows a detailed analysis at the object level by dividing the image into super pixels. Sentinel 2 Harmonized images of the study area were obtained from the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform for 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022,and all calculations were made in GEE. When the classification accuracies of four years were examined, it was seen that the classification accuracies(OA, UA, PA, and Kappa) of the lake water area were above 92%, F-score was above 0.98 for all methods using the object-based classification method obtained by the combination of the SNIC algorithm and CART, RF, and SVM machine learning algorithms. It has been determined that the SVM algorithm has higher evaluation metrics in determining the lake water area than the CART and RF methods.Keywords : GEE, Basit yinelemeli kümeleme, Nesne tabanlı sınıflandırma, Göl yüzey alanı, Sentinel 2, Makine öğrenmesi
