Road Analysis of NH67 Extension by Using Geographic Information System

Abstract

Road analysis of NH67 extension from Narsimha nayak kenpalayam to Mettu palayam by using Geographic Information System, and the study is to analyze the traffic congestion of the road. The distance from starting point (Narasimhaickenpalayam) to the ending point(Mettupalayam) is 21.4 km.  The Geographic Information System is used to make the spatial mapping by the involvement of topographical map.  The problem is rectified on the accidental zone, heavy flow of traffic and improper signal design. GIS is a good tool for analyzing the road accidents by the use of values in the spot latitudes and longitudes.  The manual methods are difficult for consuming and expensive.  This project deals with the problems of the Coimbatore city and to make better decision. The problems for traffic related problems can be rectified by adopting better signal designing,implementing speed breakers at necessary locations where traffic congestion is relatively high.
