ABSTRACT
Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is attracting interest from a broad range of
Civil Engineering disciplines because of its potential to provide a new environment for
problem solving which would lower costs, improving quality and support multi discipline
analysis for complex projects. It is used in many Civil Engineering application including
Infrastructure management, Transportation, Land use planning, Water resource Engineering
and Environmental Engineering.
When so many parameters are to be connected with Transportation network like travel time,
speed, road resistance, turning movements, etc. For such a big network GIS (Geographic
Information System) proves itself as an efficient tool for solving such a network problems
quickly and with a great precision. The GIS Software is determining the optimal routes or
Best routes from one origin to many destinations kind of problem, with an objective of
minimizing travel distance and travel time of users. Constrains taken into consideration were
impedance for intersections, type of road and speed. GIS emerged as better tool for getting
solution of such complex problems very accurately and rapidly.

1. INTRODUCTION
A Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer based tool for the input, storage,
management, retrieval and output of the information. The information in a GIS relates to the
characteristics of geographic locations or areas. In other words, a GIS answers questions
about where things are or about what is located at a location. The term GIS has different
meaning in different contexts. It can relate to an overall system of hardware and software that
is used to work with spatial information. It might refer to a particular software package that is
designed to handle information about geographic features. Data capturing from aerial
photography and / or remote sensing system were made with the help of Global Positioning
System, digitalizing and scanning [4].
Civil Engineering is about developing and sustaining infrastructure. GIS technology provides
the tool for creating, managing, analysing and visualising the data associated with developing
and managing infrastructure. GIS allows civil engineers to manage and share data and turn it
into easily understood reports and visualisations that can be analysed and communicated to
others. This data can be related to both project and its broader geographic contexts. It also
helps organisations and Governments work together to develop strategies for sustainable
development. Thus, GIS is playing an increasingly important role in Civil Engineering
companies, supporting all phases of the infrastructure life cycle [4].
GIS will allow project managers and different people involved in project with different
backgrounds to get the information about the progress of the project and support Decision
Making. GIS will provide a common basis of understanding and communication among these
people. Many people think of GIS as a presentation tool. A GIS does in fact create high
quality maps that communicate considerable amounts of information in an efficient and
attention-getting manner [1].
2. Why GIS?
GIS software is interoperable, supporting the many data formats used in the infrastructure life
cycle and allowing civil engineers to provide data to various agencies in the required format
while maintaining the datas core integrity. GIS technology provides a central location to
conduct spatial analysis, overlay data, and integrate other solutions and systems. Built on a
database rather than individual project files, GIS enables civil engineers to easily manage,
reuse, share, and analyse data, saving time and resources.
GIS are needed in part because human populations and consumption have reached levels such
that many resources, including air and land, are placing substantial limits on human action.
Human populations have doubled in the last 50 years. Public organizations have adopted GIS
because of legislative mandates, and because GIS aid in governmental functions. Many
businesses have adopted GIS because they provide increased efficiency in the delivery of
goods and services. Retail businesses locate stores based on a number of spatially-related
factors. GIS are also used in hundreds of other business applications, such as to route delivery
vehicles, guide advertising, design buildings, plan construction, and sell real estate. GIS
provide spatial solutions to many fields of civil engineering such as transportation, water
resources, facilities management, urban planning, construction and E-business. GIS is an
effective tool to visualize the topographical conditions of construction site. The modelling of
construction site facilitates in construction controlling and planning process [4].
2.1 AUTHOR, SERVE, USE
GIS lets you easily author data, maps, globes, and models on the desktop; serve them
to a GIS server; and use them through Web, desktop, and mobile clients [4].
2.2 SPATIAL ANALYSIS
GIS provides tools for modelling information to support more intelligent, faster decisions;
discover and characterize geographic patterns; optimize network and resource allocation; and
automate workflows through a visual modelling environment [4].
3. COMPONENTS OF A GIS
A GIS has following components.
Hardware: It consists of the equipment and support devices that are required to capture, store
process and visualize the geographic information. These include computer with hard disk,
digitizers, scanners, printers and plotters etc.
Software: Software is at the heart of a GIS system. The GIS software must have the basic
capabilities of data input, storage, transformation, analysis and providing desired outputs. The
interfaces could be different for different softwares. The GIS software being used today
belong to either of the category proprietary or open source. ArcGIS by ESRI is the widely
used proprietary GIS software. Others in the same category are MapInfo, Micro station, Geo
media etc. The development of open source GIS has provided us with freely available
desktop GIS such as Quantum, uDIG, GRASS, MapWindow GIS etc., GIS softwares.
Data: The data is captured or collected from various sources (such as maps, field
observations, photography, satellite imagery etc.) and is processed for analysis and
presentation.
Procedures: These include the methods or ways by which data has to be input in the
system, retrieved, processed, transformed and presented.
People: This component of GIS includes all those individuals (such as programmer,
database manager, GIS researcher etc.) who are making the GIS work, and also the
individuals who are at the user end using the GIS services, applications and tools [7].
4.1 PLANNING
It contains high-level planning functions for site location including environmental impact
mitigation, economic analysis, regulatory permitting, alternative siting analysis, routing
utilities, what-if scenarios, visualization of concept options, data overlay, modelling, and
benefit/cost alternatives analysis [6].
In planning its major contribution is to give us with an organised set of data which can help
professionals to combat complex scenarios relating to the selection of site, environmental
impact, study of ecosystem, managing risk regarding the use of natural resources,
sustainability issues, managing traffic congestion, routing roads and pipelines etc. [4].
4.2 DATA COLLECTION
Precise and accurate data is the core driving factor of any successful project. GIS is equipped
with almost all the tools and functions that enables the user to have access to the required
data within a reasonable time [6].
GIS has specific functions to collect precise site data used for predesign analysis, design and
calculations including field survey, topography, soils, subsurface geology, traffic,
photogrammetry, imaging, sensitive environmental areas, wetlands, hydrology, and other site
specific design-grade data [4].
4.3 DESIGN
It allows creation of new infrastructure data for new civil works including grading,
contouring, specifications, cross sections, design calculations, mass haul plans, environmental
mitigation plans, and equipment staging. This includes integration with traditional design
tools such as CAD and databases for new design capabilities [4].
4.4 ANALYSIS
Analysis is one of the major and most influential phases of the infrastructure lifecycle.
Analysis guides us about the validity or correctness of design or we can say that analysis is a
method which supports our designs. Some of the analysis that can be performed by GIS are:
Soil analysis.
GIS provides analysis to support design including hydrology analysis, volume calculations,
soil load analysis, traffic capacity, environmental impact, slope stability, materials
consumption, runoff, erosion control, and air emissions. During environmental analysis, view
project maps, site photos, CAD files, survey measurements, and 3D renderings. Analysis of
the environment with a GIS allows you to view patterns, trends, and relationships that were
not clearly evident without the visualization of data [4].
4.5 CONSTRUCTION
It is a stage when all layout plans and paper work design come into existence in the real
world. The GIS helps the professionals to understand the site conditions that affect the
schedule baseline and cost baseline. To keep the construction within budget and schedule GIS
guide us about how to utilise our resources on site efficiently by:
It provides the mechanics and management for building new infrastructure including takeoffs, machine control, earth movement, intermediate construction, volume and material, and
payment calculations, materials tracking, logistics, schedules and traffic management [4].
4.6 DATA COLLECTION
As Built Surveying GIS provides the tools to collect precise site data and document existing
conditions. With as-built surveying infrastructure data, operators use defined, operational,
industry-standard data models. As-built surveying with GIS technology permits the surveyor
to deliver data into operational GIS, eliminating costly data conversion and reducing errors
[4].
4.7 OPERATIONS/MAINTENANCE
Operations are controlled by modelling of site data and compared by the baseline prepared in
planning phase. Modelling of site may be in the form of raster images or CAD drawings.
These can help us to keep track of timely operations of activities. GIS can help to make a
record of work that has been completed and can give us visualization in the form of thematic
maps which will guide us about rate of operations, completed operations and pending
operations [6].
It models utility and infrastructure networks and integrates other related types of data such as
raster images and CAD drawings. Spatial selection and display tools allow you to visualize
scheduled work, on-going activities, recurring maintenance problems, and historical
information. The topological characteristics of a GIS database can support network tracing
and can be used to analyse specific properties or services that may be impacted by such
events as stoppages, main breaks, and drainage defects [4].

7. INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGEMENT
Visualizing assets and the surrounding environment when you build, upgrade, and repair
infrastructure helps you decide how to prioritize your work, convince others of its
importance, and make good decisions about how to move forward with your plans Having an
accurate, clear picture of the project helps you better understand need reduce problems, and
mitigate costs and environmental impacts. These processes are improved when GIS is the
core system for data management and visualization.
With all the demands on your time, using tools that streamline your business processes and
provide you with the best mapping and visualization makes sense. GIS can help you present
information in a straightforward way to partners in your projects, government officials, and
the public. With ArcGIS Server technology, you can take maps that you have created with
ArcGIS Desktop software and publish them over the Web so you, your partners, and your
staff in the field can see how a project is progressing.

visualized and shown especially to affected parties. GIS can fa- cilitate such display and
visualization and can lead to findings which might be necessary to inform infrastructure
planning, ensure productivity in various places of work or study, and to implement or enforce
compliance to any existing noise regulations [1].
9.1. SOUND AND NOISE
Environmental noise pollution continues to pose a significant threat to human health and the
quality of life for millions of people worldwide. Urbanization and associated growth in
mobility and industrialization have resulted in the intensification of noise in densely
populated areas causing an increase in noise exposure. As the population increases in an
urban area, industrial activities also increase to meet peoples needs. This results in increased
noise levels. In order to understand what noise and thus noise pollution is, it is first vital to
understand what sound is, how it is produced and how it consequently becomes noise.
In
physics, sound is defined as vibration that propagates as a typically audible mechanical wave
of pressure and displacement through a medium such as air or water. In physiology, sound is
the reception of such waves and their perception by the brain. When an object moves or
vibrates in the air, it creates waves which spread out away from the source. These vibrations
radiate out in all directions from the source like ripples in a pond and create pressure changes
which are detected by the human ear. These small changes in air pressure are relayed to the
brain and are interpreted as sounds. Such changes in air pressure are very small in
comparison to the baro- metric air pressure that surrounds us all the time. Sound is measured
using a Sound Level Meter, also referred to as a noise meter or a decibel meter in Decibels
(dB) or in Pascal units. Sound starts becoming noise when it causes uneasiness to the ear.
The human ear can hear sounds from the quietest source (e.g. a sleeping dog) to the highest
source (e.g. a jet aircraft taking off). The lowest pressure change that can generally be
detected by the human ear is 0 dB (0.00002 Pascal). The pressure change that represents the
threshold of pain to the human ear is about 140 dB (200 Pascal), equivalent to the sound of a
jet aircraft. Noise is therefore any undesirable sound that is intrinsically objectionable or that
may cause adverse effects on human health or the environment. In the simplest of terms,
noise is defined as unwanted sound. Noise pollution is a term which refers to the level of
ambient sound that is potentially aggravating or annoying to human beings and even to
animals [1].
15
assessment and management of environmental noise. The aim of this directive was to define a
common approach intended to avoid, prevent or reduce the harmful effects of environmental
noise [1].
9.3.2 NOISE MAPPING IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
Noise is one of the most unregulated and overlooked forms of pollution as it is temporal and
inconspicuous. It does not have any immediate observable effect and it doesnt cause direct
impact upon individuals. Many cities in developing countries are now having to take action to
enhance their institutional and technical capabilities to monitor and control noise exposure
and implement preventive actions in order to reduce the risks that noise poses to their
citizens. The severity of environmental noise in cities of developing countries reflects the
level and speed of development. As cities undergo economic and industrial development,
environmental noise be comes an increasing problem. Many people in developing countries
suffer the pressure of a combination of different driving forces like motorization,
industrialization and an increase in urban population density. Most of the cities in such
countries are however without the well-developed civil infrastructure and financial resources
to control these forces. The result is that the capacity of many cities to cope with the
combined pressures is often exceeded leading to a deterioration in environmental quality and
human livelihood. As compared to developed countries, problems with noise in developing
countries are often not rated at the highest level of concern. The link between noise and
human health is not taken seriously and hence there is not much done to curb the emission of
noise [1].
9.3.3 NOISE MAPPING IN KENYA
As the population increases within various towns and urban areas in Kenya, industrial
activities also increase to meet peoples needs resulting in increased noise levels. Poor land
use planning and increased traffic levels have also contributed to the elevation of noise levels
in such areas. It is also necessary to note that in order to meet spiritual needs of the people,
churches, mosques and temples are continuously being established in many areas. Religious
activities have the potential for noise pollution due to the use of loud speakers in the spread
of their messages. To protect the human population and other organisms that are sensitive to
noise, monitoring of noise levels has become an invaluable management tool. It is thus
17
necessary to provide every Kenyan with a safe and secure environment as provided for in the
Kenyan constitution which stipulates a right to a clean and safe environment as a fundamental
human right of the people of Kenya. Nairobi, being the capital of Kenya, has a high
concentration of industrial activities that has attracted a population of over three million
people. To promote harmonious coexistence between different land uses, it is impor- tant to
manage externalities generated by diverse land uses meant to meet a wide array of needs.
Nairobi has doubled its population in the last decade and Kenyas urban population currently
stands at about 40 per cent of the national population.
In Kenya, the impact of noise is not yet taken seriously and its effects are not well
emphasized. The link be- tween noise and human health is also not taken seriously and hence
there is not much done to curb the emission of noise or to better understand its spread and
effects [1].
18
Develop a 2D strategic noise map for the CBD and to identify noise hot spots there
in based on noise levels [1].
10.3. METHODOLOGY
The relevant data sets identified for collection included noise data, roads data, and buildings
data in the CBD.
19
20
The noise data used in this study was obtained from field measurements in the area of study
using a sound level meter and a hand held GPS. Coordinates were taken concurrently with
readings upon sampling site visits. LAeq, which refers to equivalent continuous noise level, is
a single decibel value derived from measurements taken in a period of time to account for
fluctuations. This data was recorded in data sheets.
The roads data was obtained on-line, created and prepared jointly by the Japan International
Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the Government of the Republic of Kenya under the
Japanese Government Technical Cooperation Program. The roads file was created with the
intention of providing a freely accessible, generalized representation of Nairobis
transportation network; a freely available dataset that will allow those interested in Nairobis
future to use GIS to make informed decisions. The roads data was then updated by digitizing
from Open Streets Maps.
The data on buildings within the CBD was also obtained online, created and prepared jointly
by the Japan In- ternational Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the Government of the Republic
of Kenya under the Japanese Government Technical Cooperation Program.
This study was done over a short period of time and specifically during the day due to
constraints of time, security and cost to show a GIS-based approach for 2D noise modeling.
Coupled with other constraints, the sam- pling duration was less than 1 minute at every
sampling point. The temporal dimension was not considered as measurements were not taken
concurrently but individually and momentarily [1].
21
10.4. RESULTS
Figure shows the Nairobi CBD noise map, probably the first ever constructed, and which is
the key result that was obtained from mapping average noise within the CBD.
22
The highest sound recorded, at 78 db, shows that in some parts, especially the hotspots, the
noise levels approach the healthy hearing limit of about 85 db. In inter- preting these results,
one must keep in mind that the study was limited to only the CBD and would need rolling out
to the other parts of the city in order to get results more representative of the whole city; in
addition, noise levels, especially from traffic, are bound to vary with time of day or night and
therefore continous noise recording would give even more representative results [1].

(GIS) software tools [2].
11.1. STUDY AREA
Kurigram district is located in Rangpur division situated in northern part of Bangladesh.
Total area of Kurigram district is 2296.10 sq.kms where total land covers is 276.45
sq.kms. It is surrounded by Coach Bihar district and West Bengal of India on north
portion, and the south portion surrounded by Gaibandha district of Bangladesh, the
eastern part is surrounded by Assam province of India, West Bengal, Rangpur and
Lalmonirhat districts on the western position. Kurigram district is situated 2523'N to
2614'N latitude and 8928'E to 8954'E longitude. Average height of this district is 13
meter from the mean sea level. There are many big and small river flows over this district.
Tempered climate is seen in the district all the year round. Here annual maximum
temperature is 32.3C and minimum 11.2C. Annual total rainfall is 2931 mm (National
Encyclopaedia of Bangladesh, 2007). Here at about 162,334.28 hectares land is cultivable
where total fallow land is 19,312.22 hectares; 30% land is single crop, 50% land is double
crop and 20% land is treble crop [2].
11.2 METHOD
This study demonstrated using topographic data, remotely sensed imagery, the integrated
approach of remote sensing and GIS techniques in flood mapping. The remote sensing
data especially RADARSAT images were collected from Space Research and Remote
Sensing Organization (SPARRSO) and Centre for Environmental and Geographic
Information Services (CEGIS). A subset of images covering a district of the region was
used at this stage of the research. Unsystematic errors remain in commercially available
remote sensing data; geometric correction was done to reduce the error. All radar
amplitude data were firstly geo corrected in the WGS_1984 geographic coordinate system
using the open source software package ArcGIS9.3 provided by the Environmental
Systems Research Institute (ESRI). The accuracy of classification was assessed based on
the evaluation set of the ground truth data. After that the geo referenced images were used
with GIS layers. The flooded areas were then derived from the radar amplitude data. Data
were carried out using Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
During the GIS manipulation flood data was converted into the attribute data and the
overlay process was done to determine the interaction with other features such as
drainage and relief for producing the flood inundate maps of flood prone areas. Then it
was reclassified into five risk zones of flooded areas are very high, high, moderate, low
and very low risk using equal interval of separation based on flooded and non-flooded
areas. Then, the five risk zones are overlaid on the map to produce the vulnerability map
of the flood affected areas. After that the vulnerability map was converted into the digital
format to enable the decision makers to assemble necessary data. Without the geospatial
data here included some the geospatial data here included some administrative
boundaries, road networks and elevation units in GIS layers for produce the map. The
range of GIS software error is up to 10% as a result of digitization and finally overlays
analyses performed on conventional maps [2].

11.3. RESULT
11.3.1. MAPPING FLOOD OF KURIGRAM
Kurigram is a northern district of Bangladesh where total population is 2,069,273. Various
seasonal flooding affected the people every year where flood situation is depending on
surrounding rivers and total rainfall. The unplanned urban growth of city, unplanned dam and
unplanned water bodies filling has made the worse flood situation in Kurigram district. The 1998
and 2004 catastrophic flood is affected the whole district and widely impacted on social,
environmental and economic sectors. According to hydrological and meteorological assessment
these events are more severe due to the lack of proper flood protection and flood management
these lacking lose the huge amount of properties and lives. For creating map of the district for
flood management, Remote sensing data and GIS tools have been used. The 1998 and 2004 flood
events show that how the flood maps of Kurigram district were developed. It is true that the using
of remote sensing data and GIS tools for flood mapping is quite recent in our Bangladesh. So
floods mapping of Kurigram district in 1998 and 2004 is not available and widely. For providing
the basic idea of the floods mapping process 1998 and 2004 event is included. Here the 1998 and
2004 events are detailed in this study [2].
28
its covered 222.35 sq.kms which is 9.68% of the total area shown in map, the total area of
Kurigram district is divided into five vulnerable zones [2].

also can help the future urbanization limits and land use pattern to minimize and avoid the
properties and human losses. The blue color areas showed the very high risk flood zone
where the green, light green and grey color areas showed the high, moderate, low and
very low flood risk zone. There the green color is more risky than light green color areas.
The red color showed the build-up areas where the different residences were situated.
These residential and crop lands fall into flood prone zone of different rivers. Distance is
not calculated during analysis of these zones from the rivers because elevation is the main
factor than distance for flooding. For example, an area which is situated at the right bank
of the river may not be flood affected for its great height where left bank is far from the
river but flood-affected due to its low gentle slope from the river. The vulnerability map
of 1998 and 2004 showed the probable extent of flood disaster. From the image or the
map risk classification, residential buildings, industries and farmlands can be observed
within the different risk zones of the river. This analysis suggests that very high risk
zones should use very carefully in different purpose by proper flood protection and flood
management for decreasing the property and live losses. It also should control the light
green zones for land use by the government [2].
35
12. CONCLUSION
There are ample evidences of applying the recent advances in satellite based remote sensing
and GIS technology in various fields of civil engineering. Indias space programmed ensuring
continuous availability of RS (Remote Sensing) data and launching of future satellites
carrying high spatial and spectral resolution sensors can go a long way in providing useful
information required for civil engineering applications [8].
The following conclusions were obtained from my seminar on GIS in civil engineering:
GIS can be easily used and hence enhances the each and every phase of infrastructure
lifecycle.
The using of the remote sensing imagery and GIS tools is very effective for flood
mapping in the recent flood events.
The maps can help the decision makers to identify the flood risk zones.
GIS also allows pollution mapping, flood mapping, water management etc. [4]
