Practical GIS generalisation using existing Arc/Info operations invariably follows a simple, generic generalisation algorithm. Typically the algorithm consists of dissolving adjacent polygons with the same attribute value, line generalisation, selection of all polygons of small area, and elimination of selected polygons by merging with the neighbouring polygon of largest area. This paper addres...

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 ...

Advancements in power electronics has sparked the adaptability of dc systems in varied application fields. The phenomenon of electric arcing in such dc systems, arising due to the absence of zero crossing of current during normal operation, has impeded the widespread proliferation of dc-based technologies in the market. Considering the advantages presented by adopting dc over the ac systems in ...

Introduction: Geographic information systems (GIS), and more specifically remote sensing, have been used within the geosciences for well over two decades. In that time, the ability to handle a variety of increasingly voluminous data (both vector and raster) has allowed continued data analysis and exploitation within mainstream GIS. The uptake and use of GIS has not been mirrored within the plan...

Applying geographic information technology in the area of cultural heritage has recently raised a great deal of interest. Indeed, several geographic information systems (GIs) have been developed targeted to applications l ~ k e tourism promotion, archaeological investigations and monument preservation. In spite of GIs high potentiality, users are often faced with the implicit complexity of data...
