Land Use Planning and Urban Flood Resilience: A GIS-Based Assessment of Master Plan for Delhi in the National Capital Territory of India
Abstract: Rapid and unplanned urbanisation replacing the natural flood absorbing formations has caused socio-economic disruption and vulnerability. Urban flooding has become a major problem in India’s National Capital Region. Unchecked urban growth in the lowlands exacerbates flooding and inadequate drainage systems are unable to cope with the rising rainfall. We need to move from a focus on disaster response to managing floods and building flood resilience. Land use planning is an …
