GEOTECHNICAL TERRAIN ANALYSIS FOR LAND USE AND TOWN PLANNING

GEOTEKNISK TERRAENGANALYS FOER FYSISK PLANERING

The report is divided into three parts: - methods for mapping geoinformation, - methods for evaluating geoinformation for land use and town planning, and - application of geoinformation to planning. The methods of mapping includes topographical interpretation, ir-technique, multispectral technique, seismic technique and electrical resistivity measurement. The methods of evaluation and application are presented in connection with methods and models used by institutions in the USA. /TRRL/
