LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
The chapter Lifelines of National Economy in Class 10 Geography focuses on the various modes of transportation and communication that play a vital role in the economic development of a country. These lifelines are crucial for the movement of goods, services, and people, thereby connecting different regions and promoting economic activities.
3. What are building services?
Building services turn buildings into places that meet
the needs of their users. Places in which we live and
work have to be safe and have the appropriate
heating, lighting, levels of humidity and access to
services such as water, drainage, electricity and
online access.
Many services may be invisible in a finished building,
but without them we would not be able to go about
our daily lives safely and work efficiently.
Imagine your home or school with no heating, lighting,
ventilation or power.
5. Playing field shelter challenge
A playing field shelter keeps out the rain but what else can it do
for those using it?
How might any electrical solutions be powered?
Research the needs of people using the shelter – what do
they use if for and what do they think would make it better?
Think of some solutions to make it a better place to be
Think about including electrical systems
How might these be powered?
Develop a design to show how if might work and
the components you will need
You might make a circuit to test it out
Renewable energy
designer
In my role I often work alongside specialists
in electrical and renewable energy, as well
as other building services and structural
engineers.
I use Computer Aided Design (CAD) to
draw up designs that have been proposed
to see if they are viable and affordable.
Most of my work is office based but I do go
on site visits to see how the proposed
design will be installed and also to see the
final solution in place.
In this project you can design a solution to
make the shelter more useful and a better
place to hang out.
An empty shelter is like any building
without services: it only becomes really
useful and welcoming when fitted with
facilities that serve the needs of its users.
9. Playing field shelter
PV systems
Many modern buildings install photovoltaic (PV) systems to generate electrical power using solar rays. A PV system can be
large or small and includes solar panels to collect and convert sunlight into electricity, and an inverter which changes the
electric current from direct (DC) to alternating current (AC). There will also be mounts for the panels, cabling, battery
storage and other accessories.
11. Library access challenge
A library needs to improve its access to ensure everyone
can use the facilities.
Which building services will need to be considered?
• Research library users’ needs
• Put yourself in the place of someone with mobility or
visual impairment issues
• Think of some solutions to improve access for people
who have a disability
• Find solutions that can be built into a library
• Design some possible outcomes that you could model
Project engineer
As a project engineer I work with architects,
contractors and specialist engineers to
make projects work for all its users.
I work from an office but often visit
construction sites to meet with the
engineers and builders to make sure
everything is going according to plan.
Building services can improve users’
experiences of buildings by installing
different services that make a building feel
good to be in.
In this project you need to think about who
is likely to be disadvantaged by limited
signage, narrow doorways, low lighting and
access to different levels in the building.
Issues around access are subject to
regulations and local authority architects
will be involved in deciding how and where
these might be put into place.
14. Library access
Accessibility
Access issues such as the width of doorways, angle of ramps etc
will involve architects working alongside building service engineers.
It is important to ensure that the designs conform to regulations for
safety and security as well as meeting the needs of users.
16. Alarm systems challenge
A small business is worried about the risk of break-ins and having
their documents stolen?
Their building has been secured with locks and bars, but they are
looking at two alarm systems to make them feel safer. One will
detect intruders and one will be triggered when the safe is moved or
there’s an attempt to break into it.
Get a clear brief from the client so you know exactly what
problems are to be addressed.
What are the options available to you?
Develop some ideas for solutions that you can present to the
client and get their feedback.
Will you need to change the proposed solutions following
feedback?
Alarm Systems
Engineer
I work mostly from home, getting details of
the jobs I need to do electronically.
Although I install alarms, CCTV cameras
and systems and access control in a wide
range of premises, I specialise in electronic
article surveillance which is anti theft
devices in shops.
There have been a great many changes in
technology since I started work, with
miniaturisation and wireless technology
being the main ones.
In this project you have the opportunity to
design at least two different solutions to
make a business secure.
It is important to ensure the client’s needs
are met and that they are happy with the
solutions proposed.
18. Alarm systems – inputs
Proximity Switch
Has two parts: one part
has wires connected to
two strips of metal
which are positioned
close together but just
apart. The second part
is a magnet which,
when brought close to
the other part causes
the two metal strips to
come into contact and
complete a circuit.
The Light Sensor is made from
material affected by light. When it is
in the dark, it performs like a switch
turned off. The sensor conducts
electricity when lit up and behaves
as a switch turned on.
Which switch or sensor?
A Tilt Switch has a tube with
electrical contacts at one end and
a metal ball which slides down to
the contacts when the switch is
tilted to complete the circuit.
Micro switches can be set Open or
Closed.
Normally Open (NO) means that the
internal contacts inside the switch are held
apart so the switch only completes the
circuit when the lever is pressed.
Normally Closed (NC) means the contacts are held
together, so the switch will connect the circuit when the
lever or button is not pressed, and only breaks the circuit
when the lever is pressed.
19. Alarm systems – outputs
Take a pic, show off, make a noise…
Buzzers
Produce a loud sound
when an electronic
signal passes through it.
Bulbs, LEDs and
Sparkles
Can be programmed to
flash on and off or remain
on for a fixed period.
Crumble controller
Simple to use
microcontroller used
to program circuits.
Cameras
Security cameras are
commonplace and a
good way of identifying
an intruder.
20. Alarm systems
Meeting standards
Alarm systems, whether they be for fire, water or security,
must comply with regulations so the relevant consultants
need to be consulted.
Schematics are drawn and can be tested using appropriate
software to ensure everything is working before installation.
22. A home for the elderly
The local authority has asked for an assessment of plans for a home for the
elderly.
They need to be sure that all stakeholders are catered for and
that it provides a safe and secure environment for the residents.
Research the stakeholders and their requirements. These will include:
staff, residents, visitors, medical professionals.
What particular needs might these stakeholders have?
What limitations are there: for example costs, building regulations and
planning consent?
Summarise the needs of stakeholders and how you might meet these.
Draw up a plan showing how the facilities and spaces can be provided
and used.
Design engineer
As a design engineer working in civil
engineering I mainly work on design
concepts. I also oversee the development
of projects and their management.
I need to know about all the services that
might be installed in a building to make it
habitable and efficient.
To do my job well I need to have good
problem-solving and communication skills
and be able to make clear decisions when
managing projects. I also need good
technical knowledge to know how things
work in different locations.
I work in an office mainly but do get to visit
sites where the work is taking place. I work
with the architects, contractors and building
services engineers to make sure the ideas
are possible and practical for users.

Building information modelling
Building information modelling (BIM) allows designers and engineers working at all levels to
assess how the overall scheme will appear and how their part will be installed and interact with
other elements. It can tell the project engineers how much ducting or electrical wiring etc is
required and how it will be installed in relation to other components.
28. Conversion challenge
An old church is being converted into a community centre and needs a scheme for
heating and lighting the building.
It is down a rough track and currently has no services except an outside tap and
some very old electrical lighting.
The client wishes the services to be concealed as far as possible.
Assess the requirements of the community centre: what heating and lighting
is likely to be required and for what purpose?
How are these services going to be installed? What will the contractors need
to consider?
Draw and label some ideas of designs for concealing the services whilst
allowing
access for maintenance
What about security and ensuring the services are safe?
Building services
consultant
My main areas of work are with
mechanical, electrical, plumbing and
drainage systems and installations.
I work with clients to develop designs that
meet their needs and with contractors and
site engineers to make sure they are
installed to the right standard to keep the
client happy.
In this task there are many things to
consider: the client’s requirements, access
for contractors and services, security and
safety, and meeting the needs of the
community centre’s users. A detailed plan
will be required to ensure it all fits together
smoothly.
32. Assessing which method of heating and lighting a building
offers the best solution can depend upon a number of
factors. These will include the performance for the building
concerned, the ease of use and installation and the costs.
Options for concealed heating can include
• Underfloor
• Electric or water fed radiators
• Air conditioning ducting
The control systems can be housed in a separate area.
Conversion challenge

33. Professionally drawn CAD drawings and building information
modelling (BIM) systems contain all the information engineers and
contractors need to complete a job to the appropriate standard.
The drawings can be layered to show heating, air ducting, etc and
can contain a great deal of detail.
