An Assessment of CartoDEM v1 over National Capital Region of India
Abstract: The most reliable and common source of elevation information for a given region has always been topo-sheet maps. However, other sources of elevation are now freely available with the advancement in the technology. SRTM DEM and ASTER DEM are the best examples of such freely available elevation sources. Still there is constantly a demand of better elevation data among the users. Recently, National Remote Sensing Center, India released CartoDEM v1. …

Geotechnical Influence Factors in Empirical Design of Highway Pavement: The A123 Ilorin – Lokoja Highway, Nigeria Case Studies
Abstract: Site investigation and application of geological and geotechnical influence factors on the highway were investigated. Method involved field sampling, geotechnical laboratory and x-ray diffraction analysis and use of SRTM extracted slope and drainage parameters; and their integration in a GIS based multi-criteria decision analysis to derive a subgrade suitability map as a design tool. The suitability criteria classified the highway into four (4) design sections. Section one for very low …

Geo-chemical Analysis of Arsenic in Medium Aquifers and Its Relation with Physical Parameters: A Study of Ballia District, India
Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to assess the spatial variation of arsenic (As) in medium aquifer and to relate it with surface elevation and slope generated using Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) satellite data and water table. Water samples were collected in both pre- and post-monsoon season in 2011. The analysis of water samples for As were carried out by using atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). Total 33 water …
