The book Dhaka Megacity: Geospatial Perspectives on Urbanisation,
Environment and Health presents the use of geospatial techniques to
address a number of environmental issues, including land use
change, climatic variability, urban sprawl, population density
modelling, flooding, environmental health, water quality, energy
resources, urban growth modelling, infectious diseases and the
quality of life. Although the work is focused on the Megacity of
Dhaka in Bangladesh, the techniques and methods that are used to
research these issues can be utilized in any other areas where
rapid population growth coupled with unplanned urbanization is
leading to environmental degradation. The book is useful for people
working in the area of Geospatial Science, Urban Geography,
Environmental Management and International Development. Since the
chapters in the book cover a range of environmental issues, this
book describes useful tools for assisting informed decision making,
particularly in developing countries.
