  • Urban Development in Ariyalur District, Using Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System (Gis)
    R.Vasanthi et al Int. Journal of Engineering Research and Applications www.ijera.com ISSN : 2248-9622, Vol. 4, Issue 1( Version 3), January 2014, pp.280-291 RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS Urban Development in Ariyalur District, Using Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System (Gis) 1 R.Vasanthi , 1R. Baskaran, and 2 G.Vanaraju. 1 Department of Industries and Earth sciences, Tamil University, Thanjavur – 613010, TamilNadu, India 2 Department of Geology, School of Geosciences, Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli – 620024, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract The study is mainly based on visual interpretation of satellite imageries by studying the standard recognition elements such as color, tone, texture, Pattern etc., for the delineation of urban land use of the study area. After the visual interpretation of Satellite imageries direct field checks have been made. The primary data were acquired from the LANDSAT satellite imagery. The supplementary data were generated from the survey of India SOI topographical maps. A base map was prepared using survey of India toposheets having the index of numbers, 58M/4, 7, 8, 11, 12 and 58N/1 on a scale of 1:50,000 as an understanding of this study. Totally 6 toposheets have covered the study area. The geographical features like major road, railway, and drainage system, and elevation information, nature of River, tank, settlements and relevant information were incorporated in the base map. Arc GIS used to integrate the available data sources. LANDSAT MSS (1976), IRS P6-LISS III (2010) satellite data the urban land use classification were attempted. The classification followed here is based on unsupervised classification and interpretation; the data interpreted from the imagery were cross- checked in the field.

Vijayakumar and G. Baskar 1Department of Civil Engineering, University College of Engineering, Ariyalur-637215. Tamil Nadu, India 2Department of Civil Engineering, Institute of Road and Transport Technology, Erode-638 316, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract: Ground water is the essential resource of water supply in Thirumanur Block. The Latest industrial development and poor agricultural practices have led to pollute the ground water sources. The present experimental work deals with the assessment of ground water quality at different areas of Thirumanur Block, Tamil Nadu, India. Ground Water samples were sampled from 15 bore wells and examined for various important water quality characteristics like pH, Electrical conductivity, Total dissolved solids, Turbidity,Total hardness, Magnesium, Potassium, Iron, Nitrate, Calcium, Sodium, Chloride, Fluoride, Total Alkalinity and Sulphate.These parameters test results compare to the standards to evaluate their suitability for human drinking and agricultural usages. The test results confirm that the ground water has a higher amount of Hardness, potassium and Alkalinity in some locations. So these locations water unfit for drinking usage. Key words: Ground Water Physical Parameters Chemical Parameter BIS and WHO Standards INTRODUCTION patterns. The average annual rainfall of the study area is 1231.95 mm. This Block is received more than 70% of the Ground water is the essential natural resource for rainfall from the northeast monsoon during October to drinking, domestic, industrial etc throughout the world.

It improves the capability of individuals and results in empowerment of them. Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948, identified literacy as a basic human right. Needless to state that increasing literacy rates leads to better health care and improved quality of life. According to the Census of India, a person is identified as literate who can both read and write with understanding in any language. The literacy rate in India since independence has been witnessing gradual significant increase. The state-specific analysis revealed that in states like Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarkhand the group disparity among the youngest age cohort has disappeared that it suggested the effective implementation of adult literacy to attain full literacy (Shukla and Mishra 2019). Among the 28 states and seven union territories, Tamil Nadu which ranked in twelfth position in 2001 census has been pushed to fourteenth place in 2011 census. Objectives The present paper makes an attempt to examine the trends in literacy rates in Tamil Nadu and the disparities across districts in Tamil Nadu.
