Description:

Geo Labs recently completed a comprehensive project for the Gilgit Development Authority (GDA), focusing on mapping and analyzing urban growth patterns. This initiative was driven by the need to address the challenges posed by rapid urbanization and its impact on infrastructure planning. By leveraging advanced technologies such as remote sensing, GIS, and drone technology, the project provided valuable insights into urban changes from 2018 to 2023, including the identification of built-up areas and factors influencing growth. The study involved detailed image processing, spatial and statistical analyses, and a survey of 100 questionnaires. The outcomes are expected to deliver a thorough understanding of urban growth dynamics, key driving factors, and actionable recommendations for sustainable infrastructure planning. This research aims to support more resilient and livable urban environments, contributing to better decision-making for future development.
