Opis

Urban planning is one of the main applications of GIS. Urban planners use GIS both as a spatial database and as an analysis and modeling tool. The applications of GIS vary according to different stages, levels, sectors, and functions of urban planning such as transportation network. This transportation network can be rightly stated as the lifelines of the people that connect both urban and rural areas.
