Geoscientific Investigations for Searching Suitable Solid Waste Disposal Site Using Remote Sensing and GIS

Geoscientific Investigations for Searching Suitable Solid Waste Disposal Site Using Remote Sensing and GIS

The whole world is facing challenges of geo-environmental disposal of municipal solid waste. Considering the problem, in this paper author has established a methodology for searching the geo-scientifically feasible solid waste disposal site using advent geospatial tools. GIS modeling with overlay...
