Abstract:
Many residential townships are being developed
across the country for providing housing facilities to ever
growing population. This project is an attempt to plan and
design the layout according to bylaws and regulations of
the governing authority (BDA/BMRDA) using Geographic
information system (GIS), Global positioning system (GPS)
for which ARC GIS 9.3 and ERDAS Imagine9.1 have been
made use of. The main objective is to apply GIS in various
stages of the project including
1. Feasibility studies
2. Governmental approvals – environmental impact
assessment
3. Scientific planning and design of various
infrastructures of the layout like the
� Residential units
� Commercial units
� Water supply lines
� Sewerage lines
� Roads networks
� Rain water harvesting units
4. Marketing of the project.
The other objective is to create Triangular Irregular
Network (TIN) using Total Station data and Google earth
data, compare the result and investigate the possibility of
reducing and/or eliminating ground survey. Using TIN,
Digital Elevation Data (DEM) is created to develop the
ground surface profile to calculate the formation levels of
roads, sewerage lines, and plinth levels of the individual
houses so as to provide the proper slope for draining out
the used water as per IS1172:1993. Additionally we render
the entire layout in 3D and create a data base management
system which will be useful to engineer, customer and the
government.
Thus our project shows that GIS can greatly enhance
the process of planning and design of an efficient and a
sustainable residential settlement.

i.e. without even doing any survey the developer can first get an idea of the terrain and then depending upon the
feasibly aspects he can decide to buy or not. It can also helps in saving the huge amount of money to spend in conduct

Conclusion:
• Paper shows that GIS can greatly enhance the process of planning and design of an efficient and a sustainable
residential settlement.
• Illustrates benefits and utility of GIS in various stages of the project including feasibility studies, governmental
approvals, planning, and design of various infrastructures of the layout and in the marketing of the project.
• Shows that the data available in public domain (Google earth data) can be used fruitfully during the preliminary stage of
the project.
• The advantage of geo referencing and linking of spatial data with the non spatial data helps in the process of informed
decision making and it is also of great use in reviewing of the decisions.
• Thus use of GIS in Civil engineering projects will make the process of surveying,
and accurate.
