The authors aimed at showing in the publication the impact of the construction of selected water reservoirs in Poland on the surrounding environment, basing on the satellite imagery. For this purpose, for four test objects, i.e. the Dobczyce Reservoir, the Klimkow Reservoir, the Czorsztyn Reservoir and the Domaniowski Reservoir analyzes were carried out concerning the changes in the structure of land use for the state before and after reservoir construction, and indicators such as NDWI, SAVI and TSAVI were calculated. In the case of the analysis of changes in the land use structure, the direction of these changes was determined first of all, and for SAVI and TSAVI indices, the percentage change in their value and the direction of these changes were calculated.
