Urban Flood Hazard Modeling for Noida City
Abstract: This contemporary work unveils the usage of a new methodology to carry out an accurate hazard mapping of urban flood footprints. It is based on wetness transformation. It is a procedure of conversion of multi-spectral-bands into three dimensional feature space. The present study embraces conversion of thematic mapper (TM) imagery of Landsat to a three dimensional array; brightness, wetness and greenness, followed by the technique of change detection to locate …

Geo AI-Powered Urban Footprints
Abstract: In the contemporary era, building footprints are of paramount importance for accurate and current inventories in the development of infrastructure and geospatial analysis. Traditional methods, relying on manual digitization, were largely unsustainable as the urban regions were growing rapidly. Manual digitization was expensive and lacked geometric precision. This paper introduces an automated, end-to-end GEO AI-powered framework for high-end fidelity building footprint extraction from Google Satellite Data. Our approach for this …

Build for Tomorrow: Sustainable Materials for Smarter Cities
Abstract: Sustainable materials are revolutionizing urban development by reducing the carbon footprint of buildings, fostering climate-smart and resilient cities. Key examples include green concrete, which utilizes industrial waste and lowers greenhouse gas emissions, and recycled steel, which requires less energy than producing new steel. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is also gaining popularity for its strength and renewability, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional building materials. Smart glass, which adjusts light transmission, based …
