Use of GIS for Location Based Planning and Scheduling of Irrigation Infrastructure
摘要
The construction of an irrigation infrastructure mainly includes the construction of intake structures, water storage tanks at different locations, and laying pipelines. In hill areas, the construction of irrigation structures at different locations is highly complex and individualistic in nature. Effective planning is essential to develop an executable construction plan for irrigation infrastructure. The construction of almost similar irrigation structures at different locations is a repetitive type of construction. This chapter explores the use of the repetitive planning and scheduling technique called Location-based Planning (LBP) for planning and scheduling the construction of irrigation structures located at different geographical locations in geographic information system platform (GIS).
