Possibility of GIS to Solve Space-Related Problems in the Construction Industry

Authors:- Abhishek Gujjar, Rohtas Rathi, Dr. Abhimanyu Choudhary

Abstract:- Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer-based technology that is widely used to address engineering challenges involving geographical data. Despite its expanding popularity, GIS has yet to fulfil its full potential in the building business. This paper presents a synopsis of recent work on spatial uses of GIS technology in the construction sector. GIS technologies have the capacity to tackle space-related construction sector challenges such as sophisticated visualisation, information integration, route planning, E- commerce, cost calculation, and so on. This study develops and discusses a GIS-based technique for dealing with time and space challenges in construction project scheduling.
