Gis Based Optimal Route Analysis for the Transportation of Solid Waste- a Case Study from Hyderabad City
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objectives of this project are to create a spatial digital database consisting of LU/LC and road network maps with the help of IRS-ID, PAN & LISS-III merged data and SOI toposheets, to create database consisting of traffic volume, vehicle density and details of solid waste and to evolve an optimal transportation route maps for efficient, safe and economic disposal of solid waste. The final optimal route is obtained using arc view network analyst extension available in arc view GIS. The project results in giving optimal routes from the three transfer stations of Hyderabad to the dumping sites. A decrease in traffic density with less number of stops and turnings in these optimal routes resulted in more speed, less travel time and less cost and making the routes efficient, effective and economic.
