1.0 INTRODUCTION GIS is a computer system for capturing, storing, checking, integrating, manipulating, analysing and displaying data related to positions on the Earth's surface. Typically, a Geographical Information System is used for handling maps of one kind or another. These might be represented as several different layers where each layer holds data about a particular kind of feature. Each feature is linked to a position on the graphical image on a map and a record in an attribute table. GIS can relate otherwise disparate on the basis of common geography, revealing hidden patterns, relationships, and trends that are not readily apparent in spreadsheets or statistical packages, often creating new information from existing data resources. Hidden in most data is a geographical component: an address, postal code, census block, city, county, or latitude/longitude coordinate. With GIS, you can explore the spatial element of your data to display soil types, track crime patterns, analyze animal migration patterns, find the best location for an expanding business, model the path of atmospheric pollution, and make decisions for many types of complicated problems. Understanding what GIS is and what it can be used for. With a GIS application we can open digital maps on computer, create new spatial information to add to a map, create printed maps customised to the needs and perform spatial analysis. In this worksheet we can explore the basic concepts behind Geographical Information Systems.

1.1 AIM The aim of this mini project is to identify suitable site/s for development based on the given criteria. 1.2 TASK Given TWO (2) datasets: Landuse.shp - Land use map (classified into 5 different classes i.e. water bodies, forest, agriculture land, developed areas and cleared land), 3758B.DXF -Digital topographic data of the study area

We are required to extract the following data layers from the given digital topographic data: Contour Road Major river

Select suitable site/s based on the following criteria: Must be located within 1000 metres from existing road Must be located within agricultural land Must not be located within 500 metres from major river Must not be located within slope greater than 20% Area must be more than 20 hectares The final report should include the steps involved to:1. Extract the contour, road and river data layers 2. Perform spatial data analysis to identify suitable areas. 3. Display the identified areas in perspective view

CONCLUSION The Geographic Information System has been an effective tool for implementation and monitoring of municipal infrastructure. The use of GIS has been in vogue primarily due to the advantage mentioned below: Planning Of Project Advantage of GIS is often found in detailed planning of project having a large spatial component, where analysis of the problem is a pre requisite at the start of the project. Thematic maps generation is possible on one or more than one base maps, example: the generation of a land use map on the basis of a soil composition, vegetation and topography. The unique combination of certain features facilitates the creation of such thematic maps. With the various modules within GIS it is possible to calculate surface, length, width and distance. Making Decisions The adage "better information leads to better decisions" is as true for GIS as it is for other information systems. A GIS, however, is not an automated decision making system but a tool to query, analyze, and map data in support of the decision making process. GIS technology has been used to assist in tasks such as presenting information at planning inquiries, helping resolve territorial disputes, and siting pylons in such a way as to minimize visual intrusion. Visual Analysis Digital Terrain Modeling (DTM) is an important utility of GIS. Using DTM/3D modeling, landscape can be better visualized, leading to a better understanding of certain relations in the landscape. Many relevant calculations, such as (potential) lakes and water volumes, soil erosion volume (Example: landslides), quantities of earth to be moved (channels, dams, roads, embankments, land leveling) and hydrological modeling becomes easier. Improving Organizational Integration Many organizations that have implemented a GIS have found that one of its main benefits is improved management of their own organization and resources. Because GIS has the ability to link data sets together by geography, it facilitates interdepartmental information sharing and communication. By creating a shared database one department can benefit from the work of another--data can be collected once and used many times.
