Spatial Analysis of Transportation Network for Town Planning of Aurangabad City by using Geographic Information System

The Spatial Analysis of Transportation Network for Town Planning task is performed for Aurangabad Municipal Corporation (AMC). The required data was collected from the NRSC, Hyderabad and AMC. The Arc GIS 10 is used to perform the extraction of region of Interest from primary data and for Road Generalization, like selection, merging, elimination, symbolization etc. Total Road length and total area is calculated using the ArcMap software, using these data and population data, a Population Density and Road Density is calculated. Network Dataset is created in Arc Catalog 10 which provides the number of Transport Lines and number of Junctions. It is used to calculate the Network Connectivity Indices. An Alpha Index, Beta Index, Gamma Index and Eta Index are calculated for Transportation Analysis. This provides the spatial relationship between the Transportation and Town planning of Aurangabad City. The experiment resulted in providing information regarding the highly burn and undeveloped Zones.
