Manish Kumar Pal
Technical Lead (GIS Mapping)
Deploying high-resolution spatial datasets and building height extraction for municipal planning and infrastructure analysis.
As Jhansi advances under smart city initiatives and agricultural-urban buffer expansion, precise spatial mapping of built-up areas is vital. RSAK Society's GIS laboratory executed 3D building footprint modeling overlaying high-resolution satellite basemaps.
GIS Workflow Summary
- Satellite Imagery Acquisition: Sub-meter resolution pan-sharpened imagery.
- Building Vector Extraction: Automated and semi-automated boundary digitizations.
- Height & Volumetric Modeling: 3D extruded prism rendering for structural volume estimation.
