Data-Base Creation and Analysis for Rational Planning
Keywords:
Data base creation, rational planning, natural resource management, planning for developmentAbstract
With rapid urbanization and shortage of space, various departments have started moving their offices and universities/ colleges to rural areas. As a result, there has been a very rapid change in the land use/land cover pattern of fringes connecting urban and rural areas. However, with this rapid change, the concerned authorities are in difficulties monitoring and managing the resources and infrastructure. Hence it is imperative to create a database of all the available information along with proper mapping of the resources to have a proper mechanism and management plan for better developmental planning processes. In view of the above, this study was conducted at a small built-up area (about 49 acres of habitat), a fringe to an urban area i.e. Doon University, Dehradun, Uttrakhand. The techniques of Remote Sensing (RS), Geographical Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS) along with the Survey of India topo-sheet 53 J/3 have been used to analyse the data and to create a spatial and non-spatial database for Decision Support System (DSS).
The outputs were taken in the form of different thematic layers with aerial estimations, analysis of per capita of drinking water, irrigation water ability and electricity consumption along with rainwater harvesting capacity for the different projected years. This paper presents an overview and preliminary results of an integrated database and its optimum utilisation for better governance
