GI3012 REMOTE SENSING AND GIS FOR TRANSPORTATION PLANNING 3 0 0 3
OBJECTIVE:
This course intends to prepare students for the following:
To develop an understanding of the issues and challenges facing mobility in urban
areas.
To understand the utility of Remote Sensing and GIS for transportation planning
UNIT I ELEMENTS OF TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND
PLANNING 12
Geographical perspective on transportation - Transportation and energy - Equity issues
- Urban transportation: policy alternatives - Transportation and the environment -
Urban transport planning processes - Transportation agencies - Roles and responsibilities -
Socio-demographic data and travel surveys - Transportation modeling - Traffic congestion
- Plan evaluation and implementation - Planning and financing - Critiques of transportation
modeling and forecasting – Web resources
UNIT II REMOTE SENSING IN TRANSPORTATION 10
Study of geographic pattern of urban development using remote sensing data
products – urban sprawl – parking studies using aerial photos – traffic analysis -
accident analysis - site suitability analysis for transport infrastructure – population
distribution studies – improvisation of rural road network – regional road network
connectivity.
UNIT III GIS AND TRANSPORTATION ANALYSIS 11
Transportation analysis in GIS: Introduction - network flows - shortest path
algorithms - transportation databases: creation and maintenance - transportation
analysis in GIS - facility location - vehicle routing – highway alignment – railway
alignment
71
UNIT IV GIS-T DATA MODELS 6
GIS and Spatial analysis – coupling transportation models with GIS - TRANUS – UPLAN
– MetroSIM – Modelling land use transport interaction.
UNIT V INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS (ITS) 6
ITS development – architecture – integration with GIS – applications – case studies.
