Physiographic, Climatic, and Hydrogeological Determinants of Urban Flooding in Bhopal: A Spatial Assessment
Abstract: Bhopal, capital city of Madhya Pradesh, is uniquely shaped by hilly terrain, lake systems, and complex hydrogeological characteristics, which historically supported efficient natural drainage. However, rapid urbanization, encroachment, and alterations in land use have increasingly disrupted these natural systems, amplifying the city’s susceptibility to urban flooding. The city’s physiography, defined by five major hills, undulating slopes, and a network of natural drainage channels, directs runoff toward low-lying zones that frequently …

Appraisal of Household Potable Water Accessibility in Sub–Urban Areas of Oyo State: Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing Approach
Abstract: This study centred on assessing potable water accessibility in sub-urban areas using Fiditi as a case study. This study adopted a service area network and overlay operation in ArcGIS to achieve the aim of this study. Locational coordinates of all the facilities were obtained through Garmin 76 handheld GPS. Also, ground truthing was adopted to distinguish residential buildings from non - residential buildings. Coordinates (X.Y, Z) of the study were …

Sustainable Cotton Crop Productivity through Precision Weed Detection: A Deep Learning-Based Approach with UAV Integration
Abstract: Weeds present a major challenge to crop productivity by competing with crops for vital resources, including water, sunlight, and nutrients, often resulting in significant yield reductions. On a global scale, weeds are responsible for approximately 13.2% of annual crop losses, a quantity sufficient to feed nearly one billion people. These invasive plants disrupt agricultural systems and adversely impact crop yields. Given their uneven distribution in fields, ground or aerial robots …
