Assessment of geospatial capability index for siting waste dump/landfill to control groundwater geopollution using geographic information system (GIS) approach: case study of Abakaliki area and environs, Southeastern Nigeria

Abstract Understanding spatial variation of rock and soil is important for capability precision as well as groundwater contamination or geopollution management. In view of waste dump/landfills, geoenvironmental hazards ravaging our land including surface and groundwater contamination, site suitabili...
