The Makran coast is extremely vulnerable to tsunamis and earthquakes due to the
presence of three very active tectonic plates namely, the Arabian, Eurasian and Indian
plates. On 28 November 1945 at 21:56 UTC, a massive Makran earthquake generated
a destructive tsunami in the Northern Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. The tsunami
was responsible for loss of life and great destruction along the coasts of Pakistan, Iran,
India and Oman. In this paper tsunami early response system created using
classification of tsunami susceptibility along the western coast of India. Based on the
coastal topographical features of selected part of the western India, we have prepared
regions susceptible to flooding in case of a mega-tsunami. Geo-information techniques
have proven their usefulness for the purposes of early warning and emergency
response. These techniques enable us to generate extensive geo-information to make
informed decisions in response to natural disasters that lead to better protection of
citizens, reduce damage to property, improve the monitoring of these disasters, and
facilitate estimates of the damages and losses resulting from them. The classification of
tsunami risk zone (susceptible zone) is based on elevation vulnerability by Sinaga et al.
(2011). We overlaid satellite image on the tsunami risk map, and identified the region
to be particularly at risk in study area. In our study satellite images integrated with
GIS/CAD, can give information for assessment, analysis and monitoring of natural
disaster. We expect that the tsunami risk map presented here will supportive to tsunami

Android mobile application for wildfire reporting and monitoringriyaniaes
Peat fires cause major environmental problems in Central Kalimantan Province, Indonesia and threaten human health and effect the social-economic sector. The lack of peat fire detection systems is one factor that causing these reoccurring fires. Therefore, in this study, we develop an Android mobile platform application and a web-based application to support the citizen-volunteers who want to contribute wildfires reports, and the decision-makers who wish to collect, visualize, and evaluate these wildfires reports. In this paper, the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) and a global position system (GPS) sensor from a smartphone’s camera, is a useful tool to show the potential fire and smoke’s close-range location. The exchangeable image (EXIF) file image and GPS metadata captured by a mobile phone can store and supply raw observation to our devices and sent it to the data center through global internet communication. This work’s results are the proposed application easy-to-use to monitoring potential peat fire by location and data activity. This paper focuses on developing an application for the mobile platform for peat fire reporting and a web-based application to collect peat fire location for decision-makers. Our main objective is to detect the potential and spread of fire in peatlands as early as possible by utilizing community reports using smartphones.

INTEGRATION OF REMOTE SENSING DATA WITH GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS): ...ijmpict
Remote Sensing and Geographic information System together comprise of Geographic Information Science (GIScience) which is a core research field that tries to emphasis on advanced geographic concepts in Geographic Information System and examines the impact of GIS on individuals and society as a whole and re-examines the themes with incorporation of most recent cognitive and Information Science. The Geographic Information System can be defined as a Computer based system and a tool, both hardware,
software and procedures, which manages geospatial data, solves spatial problems, and supports collection,
storage, transformation, analyzing, retrieving and display of data in a well desired manner. The integration
of GIS and Remote Sensing is a field of research and several implementations have been developed to gain
the maximum throughput out of these collective fields as these techniques have their own data analysis and
data representation methods. The application domain of remote sensing is from a base layer for GIS to the
development of thematic datasets, obtaining and extracting data from imagery and generation of unique
spatial datasets. In my paper I have focused on the integration of both the fields along with its usage in
Analysis and Modelling and also some models of error sources due to the integration of interface of the two
techniques. The paper also describes some error sources while integration as GIS and remote sensing both
are subject to errors and uncertainty. The paper has discussed some Change Detection Techniques used in
the modern sciences with their comparison.
Wastelands are essentially understood as low-quality land from an agricultural point of view,
often referred to as degraded land. Unscientific handling of land resources has resulted in the
development of vast stretches of wastelands and also formed one of the major factors of decrease in
per capita arable land causing ecological imbalances. The present paper aims to identify the
Wastelands of Chitradurga District, Karnataka through hi-tech tools of Geoinformatics. The major
causes of land degradation and subsequent formation of wastelands can be primarily attributed to
'faculty agricultural practice and indiscriminate deforestation'. Agricultural practices include the lack
of soil conservation measures and irrigation practices that often lead to the formation of the salt
affected soils. The study was taken up to map and record the wastelands using Survey of India (SoI)
toposheets of 1:50,000 scale, IRS 1D PAN+LISS III satellite data and Google Earth software with
limited Ground Truth Check (GTC) and final wasteland layer is generated. The database provides

Tsunami risk assessment of sandwip island in the coast of bangladesh using gi...eSAT Journals
Abstract The threat of tsunami on the coastal region of Bangladesh has emerged after the Great Indian Ocean earthquake in 2004. Previously, it was thought that Bangladesh is beyond the threat of tsunami but the devastating Indian Ocean tsunami has raised the need for assessing tsunami risk on Bangladesh coast, since about 32 percent of the people live in these areas. A number of geological faults have been identified in the vicinity of Bay of Bengal; which are currently being considered for potential sources of underwater earthquake. For this study, the guidelines from Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) is followed which includes assessing the hazard, vulnerability and final risk due to tsunami. GIS analysis was performed on the tsunami hazard map to find the ultimate risk. From the analysis it was found that a minimum of about 60 percent of people in the shelter units which are susceptible to potential inundation are at risk to lose their lives. With rise of inundation heights, the percentage of possible loss of people also rises accordingly. Again a night-time tsunami poses more threat to people than a day-time tsunami. It was focused to combine the results of hazard, vulnerability and risk assessment for a community in the coastal belt of Bangladesh.

DEVELOPMENT OF DIGITAL ELEVATION MODEL FOR STORM -WATER MODELING FOR COASTAL ...IAEME Publication
The frequent monsoon fluctuation in the coastal region of Nagapattinam city of
Tamil Nadu, which is known to be the rice bowl of southern India, has been imparting
increasing insecurity in the yield of the crops, but even the very living conditions of
the population, who are mostly dependent on agriculture. Road-expansion (NH-67) of
the recent years involving mass-removal of thousands of trees located at the roadside
have led to micro-climatic variation over the years. Since most of the agricultural land
of the area depends on the irrigation as well as water from canals of Cauvery River,
the precipitation (with respect to quantity, duration, and periodicity) has been the
lifeline of progress and sustenance of this zone. To track the baseline morphological
and lithological regimes of Nagapattinam city of Tamil Nadu (India) precisely, which
forms the heart of storm-water modeling, the present study was carried out. The
digital elevation modeling (DEM) was developed, using the toposheets and satellite
imageries so as to evaluate the basis for hydro-geological modeling.

The study uses a Structured Questionnaire to collect the primary data. For this study, Thirty-six non-clinical employees were selected from twelve randomly selected Health Care organizations at Thanjavur. Thirty-two fully completed questionnaires were received.
Living in 21st century in itself reminds all of us the necessity of police and its administration. As more and more we are entering into the modern society and culture, the more we require the services of the so called ‘Khaki Worthy’ men i.e., the police personnel. Whether we talk of Indian police or the other nation’s police, they all have the same recognition as they have in India. But as already mentioned, their services and requirements are different after the like 26th November, 2008 incidents, where they without saving their own lives has sacrificed themselves without any hitch and without caring about their respective family members and wards. In other words, they are like our heroes and mentors who can guide us from the darkness of fear, militancy, corruption and other dark sides of life and so on. Now the question arises, if Gandhi would have been alive today, what would have been his reaction/opinion to the police and its functioning? Would he have some thing different in his mind now what he had been in his mind before the partition or would he be going to start some Satyagraha in the form of some improvement in the functioning of the police administration? Really these questions or rather night mares can come to any one’s mind, when there is too much confusion is prevailing in our minds, when there is too much corruption in the society and when the polices working is also in the questioning because of one or the other case throughout the India. It is matter of great concern that we have to thing over our administration and our practical approach because the police personals are also like us, they are part and parcel of our society and among one of us, so why we all are pin pointing towards them.
A STUDY ON TALENT MANAGEMENT AND ITS IMPACT ON EMPLOYEE RETENTION IN SELECTED...IAEME Publication
The goal of this study was to see how talent management affected employee retention in the selected IT organizations in Chennai. The fundamental issue was the difficulty to attract, hire, and retain talented personnel who perform well and the gap between supply and demand of talent acquisition and retaining them within the firms. The study's main goals were to determine the impact of talent management on employee retention in IT companies in Chennai, investigate talent management strategies that IT companies could use to improve talent acquisition, performance management, career planning and formulate retention strategies that the IT firms could use. The respondents were given a structured close-ended questionnaire with the 5 Point Likert Scale as part of the study's quantitative research design. The target population consisted of 289 IT professionals. The questionnaires were distributed and collected by the researcher directly. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to collect and analyse the questionnaire responses. Hypotheses that were formulated for the various areas of the study were tested using a variety of statistical tests. The key findings of the study suggested that talent management had an impact on employee retention. The studies also found that there is a clear link between the implementation of talent management and retention measures. Management should provide enough training and development for employees, clarify job responsibilities, provide adequate remuneration packages, and recognise employees for exceptional performance.
ATTRITION IN THE IT INDUSTRY DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC: LINKING EMOTIONAL INTE...IAEME Publication
Globally, Millions of dollars were spent by the organizations for employing skilled Information Technology (IT) professionals. It is costly to replace unskilled employees with IT professionals possessing technical skills and competencies that aid in interconnecting the business processes. The organization’s employment tactics were forced to alter by globalization along with technological innovations as they consistently diminish to remain lean, outsource to concentrate on core competencies along with restructuring/reallocate personnel to gather efficiency. As other jobs, organizations or professions have become reasonably more appropriate in a shifting employment landscape, the above alterations trigger both involuntary as well as voluntary turnover. The employee view on jobs is also afflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic along with the employee-driven labour market. So, having effective strategies is necessary to tackle the withdrawal rate of employees. By associating Emotional Intelligence (EI) along with Talent Management (TM) in the IT industry, the rise in attrition rate was analyzed in this study. Only 303 respondents were collected out of 350 participants to whom questionnaires were distributed. From the employees of IT organizations located in Bangalore (India), the data were congregated. A simple random sampling methodology was employed to congregate data as of the respondents. Generating the hypothesis along with testing is eventuated. The effect of EI and TM along with regression analysis between TM and EI was analyzed. The outcomes indicated that employee and Organizational Performance (OP) were elevated by effective EI along with TM.
INFLUENCE OF TALENT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ON ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE A STUD...IAEME Publication
By implementing talent management strategy, organizations would have the option to retain their skilled professionals while additionally working on their overall performance. It is the course of appropriately utilizing the ideal individuals, setting them up for future top positions, exploring and dealing with their performance, and holding them back from leaving the organization. It is employee performance that determines the success of every organization. The firm quickly obtains an upper hand over its rivals in the event that its employees having particular skills that cannot be duplicated by the competitors. Thus, firms are centred on creating successful talent management practices and processes to deal with the unique human resources. Firms are additionally endeavouring to keep their top/key staff since on the off chance that they leave; the whole store of information leaves the firm's hands. The study's objective was to determine the impact of talent management on organizational performance among the selected IT organizations in Chennai. The study recommends that talent management limitedly affects performance. On the off chance that this talent is appropriately management and implemented properly, organizations might benefit as much as possible from their maintained assets to support development and productivity, both monetarily and non-monetarily.
A STUDY OF VARIOUS TYPES OF LOANS OF SELECTED PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS...IAEME Publication
Banking regulations act of India, 1949 defines banking as “acceptance of deposits for the purpose of lending or investment from the public, repayment on demand or otherwise and withdrawable through cheques, drafts order or otherwise”, the major participants of the Indian financial system are commercial banks, the financial institution encompassing term lending institutions. Investments institutions, specialized financial institution and the state level development banks, non banking financial companies (NBFC) and other market intermediaries such has the stock brokers and money lenders are among the oldest of the certain variants of NBFC and the oldest market participants. The asset quality of banks is one of the most important indicators of their financial health. The Indian banking sector has been facing severe problems of increasing Non- Performing Assets (NPAs). The NPAs growth directly and indirectly affects the quality of assets and profitability of banks. It also shows the efficiency of banks credit risk management and the recovery effectiveness. NPA do not generate any income, whereas, the bank is required to make provisions for such as assets that why is a double edge weapon. This paper outlines the concept of quality of bank loans of different types like Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of selected public and private sector banks. This study is highlighting problems associated with the role of commercial bank in financing Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SME). The overall objective of the research was to assess the effect of the financing provisions existing for the setting up and operations of MSMEs in the country and to generate recommendations for more robust financing mechanisms for successful operation of the MSMEs, in turn understanding the impact of MSME loans on financial institutions due to NPA. There are many research conducted on the topic of Non- Performing Assets (NPA) Management, concerning particular bank, comparative study of public and private banks etc. In this paper the researcher is considering the aggregate data of selected public sector and private sector banks and attempts to compare the NPA of Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of public and private sector banks. The tools used in the study are average and Anova test and variance. The findings reveal that NPA is common problem for both public and private sector banks and is associated with all types of loans either that is housing loans, agriculture loans and loans to SMES. NPAs of both public and private sector banks show the increasing trend. In 2010-11 GNPA of public and private sector were at same level it was 2% but after 2010-11 it increased in many fold and at present there is GNPA in some more than 15%. It shows the dark area of Indian banking sector.

ROLE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA - PROBLEMS AND ...IAEME Publication
The majority of the population in India lives in villages. The village is the back bone of the country. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Developing the rural economy is one of the key indicators towards a country’s success. Whether it be the need to look after the welfare of the farmers or invest in rural infrastructure, Governments have to ensure that rural development isn’t compromised. The economic development of our country largely depends on the progress of rural areas and the standard of living of rural masses. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Rural entrepreneurship is based on stimulating local entrepreneurial talent and the subsequent growth of indigenous enterprises. It recognizes opportunity in the rural areas and accelerates a unique blend of resources either inside or outside of agriculture. Rural entrepreneurship brings an economic value to the rural sector by creating new methods of production, new markets, new products and generate employment opportunities thereby ensuring continuous rural development. Social Entrepreneurship has the direct and primary objective of serving the society along with the earning profits. So, social entrepreneurship is different from the economic entrepreneurship as its basic objective is not to earn profits but for providing innovative solutions to meet the society needs which are not taken care by majority of the entrepreneurs as they are in the business for profit making as a sole objective. So, the Social Entrepreneurs have the huge growth potential particularly in the developing countries like India where we have huge societal disparities in terms of the financial positions of the population. Still 22 percent of the Indian population is below the poverty line and also there is disparity among the rural & urban population in terms of families living under BPL. 25.7 percent of the rural population & 13.7 percent of the urban population is under BPL which clearly shows the disparity of the poor people in the rural and urban areas. The need to develop social entrepreneurship in agriculture is dictated by a large number of social problems. Such problems include low living standards, unemployment, and social tension. The reasons that led to the emergence of the practice of social entrepreneurship are the above factors. The research problem lays upon disclosing the importance of role of social entrepreneurship in rural development of India. The paper the tendencies of social entrepreneurship in India, to present successful examples of such business for providing recommendations how to improve situation in rural areas in terms of social entrepreneurship development. Indian government has made some steps towards development of social enterprises, social entrepreneurship, and social in- novation, but a lot remains to be improved.
OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION OF POWER DISTRIBUTION RADIAL NETWORK USING HYBRID MET...IAEME Publication
Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

1. INTRODUCTION
Tsunami is a phenomenon of gravity waves produced in consequence of movement of the
ocean floor. The giant tsunami in the Indian Ocean on 26 December 2004, claiming more than
225,000 lives (Titov et al. 2005; Geist et al. 2006; Okal & Synolakis 2008, Singh et al. 2012)
[9, 32, 47], has emphasized the urgent need for tsunami emergency response systems for
various vulnerable coastlines around the world, especially for those neighbouring the Indian
Ocean. The second deadliest tsunami prior to 2004 in South Asia occurred on 28 November
1945 (Heck 1947; Dominey-Howes et al. 2007; Heidarzadeh et al. 2007; Jaiswal et al. 2009;
Hoffmann et al. 2013) [8, 12, 14, 18, 22]. It originated off the southern coast of Pakistan and
was destructive in the Northern Arabian Sea and caused fatalities as far away as Mumbai
(Berninghausen 1966; Quittmeyer & Jacob 1979; Ambraseys & Melville 1982; Heidarzadeh
et al. 2008; Jaiswal et al. 2009) [1, 2, 4, 15, 23]. More than 4000 people were killed by both
the earthquake and the tsunami (Ambraseys & Melville 1982). Several researchers have
different estimates about the location of the earthquake epicentre. Heck (1947) reported the
epicentre at 25.00º N and 61.50º E. According to Pendse (1948), [38] the epicentre was at
24.20º N and 62.60º E, about 120 km away from Pasni. Ambraseys and Melville (1982)
reported the epicenter at 25.02º N and 63.47º E. By recalculating the seismic parameters of the
1945 earthquake, Byrne et al. (1992) suggested that the epicentre was at 25.15º N and 63.48º
E, which is used in the present study. The earthquake mainly affected the region between
Karachi and the Persian border. In Karachi, ground motions lasted approximately 30 sec,
stopping the clock in the Karachi Municipality Building and interrupting the communication
cable link between Karachi and Muscat (Oman). According to Pendse (1948), the tsunami that
was generated reached a height of 12–15 m in Pasni and Ormara on the Makran coast and
caused great damage to the entire coastal region of Pakistan. However, several researchers have
estimated the tsunami height of about 5–7 m near Pasni (Page et al. 1979; Ambraseys &
Melville 1982; Heidarzadeh et al. 2008b) [16]. The tsunami wave was observed at 8:15 am on
Salsette Island, i.e. Mumbai, and reached a height of 2 m (Jaiswal et al. 2009; Newspaper
archives, Mumbai).
1.1. Importance of Geo-Information Technology for Tsunami Risk Visualization
The tsunami risk visualization created by Geo-Information technologies of Geographic
Information Systems (GIS), Remote Sensing (RS) and Computer Aided Design (CAD) are
powerful tools for conveying information to decision-making process in natural disaster risk
assessment and management. Visualization is the graphical presentation of information, with
the goal of improving the viewer understands of the information contents. Comprehension of
3D visualized models is easier and effective than 2D models. 3D visualization models are
important tools to simulate disaster from different angle that help users to comprehend the
situation more detailed and help decision makers for appropriate rescue operations. 3D
visualizations are tools for rescue operations during disasters, e.g., cyclone, tsunami,
earthquake, flooding and fire, etc. 3D visualization has a big potential for being an effective
tool for visual risk communication at each phase of the decision-making process in disaster

management (Kolbe et al. 2005; Marincioni, 2007; Zlatanova, 2008) [24, 27, 53]. 3D
visualisations have the potential to be an even more effective communication tool (Zlatanova
et al. 2002; Kolbe et al. 2005) [51]. Previous studies have shown that the presentation of hazard,
vulnerability, coping capacity and risk in the form of digital maps has a higher impact than
traditional analogue information representations (Martin and Higgs, 1997). Graphical
representation significantly reduces the amount of cognition effort, and improves the efficiency
of the decision making process (Christie, 1994), therefore disaster managers increasingly use
digital maps. Better disaster management strategies can be designed by visualization.

The advances in GIS/CAD and RS supported visualization have a potential to improve the
efficiency of disaster management operations by being used as a risk communication tool. 3D
models particularly the city and building models are created by CAD software and scanned
into computer from real world objects. In this study, classification of tsunami risk zones and
tsunami risk 3D visualization created in GIS/RS and CAD environments. We except that the
results presented here will be supportive to the tsunami emergency response system and useful
in planning the protection measures due to tsunami.
1.2. Emergency Response System along Coast of Gujarat
Gujarat state has the longest coastline in India, and has massive capital and infrastructure
investments in its coastal regions (Singh et al., 2008) [44]. With rapid developmental activities
along the coastline of Gujarat, there is a need for preparing tsunami risk 3D visualizations

past (Singh et al., 2008). Some of the most devastating disasters that have struck the state in
the last few decades include: the Morbi floods of 1978; the Kandla (port) cyclone of 1998; the
killer earthquake in Kutch, January 26th 2001; and the flash floods in south Gujarat in 2005
and in Surat in 2006. Also in the past the coast of Gujarat was affected by tsunami (Jaiswal et
al., 2009; Singh et al., 2012, Patel et al., 2014) [36, 37, 45]. Visualization is the graphical
presentation of information, with the goal of improving the viewer understands of the
information contents. Comprehension of 3D visualized models is easier and effective than 2D
models. 3D visualization models are important tools to simulate disaster from different angle
that help users to comprehend the situation more detailed and help decision makers for
appropriate rescue operations. 3D visualizations are tools for rescue operations during
disasters, e.g., cyclone, tsunami, earthquake, flooding and fire, etc (Patel et al., 2013) [35].
Figure 1 Location of tsunami forecast points along the west coast of India, Pakistan, Iran and Oman
2. DATA USED AND TSUNAMI MODELING
In the present study tsunami forecast stations were selected for output of tsunami simulation
along the coast of India, Pakistan, Oman and Iran. Most of the tsunami forecast stations were
selected in such a way that sea depth is less than 10.0m to better examine tsunami effect (Onat
and Yalciner, 2012) [33]. The location of tsunami forecast points along the west coast of India
including Pakistan, Iran and Oman are shown in Figure 1. Bathymetry and elevation data are
the principal datasets required for the model to capture the generation, propagation and
inundation of the tsunami wave from the source to the land. The bathymetry database taken
from General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) 30 sec is used for tsunami modeling
and the topography data taken from SRTM 90 m resolution is used for preparation of the
inundation map. The bounding coordinates selected are 55°76° E longitudes and 10° – 30° N
latitudes. The rupture parameters are taken from Byrne et al. (1992), which was used to model
the source of the 1945 earthquake in this study (Table 2). The initial wave amplitude (elevation
and depression) for the source is computed using Okada’s (1985) [31] method. The water
elevation in the source is about 3 m, and the depression is about 1 m.
Furthermore, tsunami simulation basically aims to calculate the tsunami heights and its
arrival times in space and time. The tsunami is assumed as a shallow water wave, where
wavelength is much larger than the depth of the sea floor. The governing equations in tsunami
numerical modeling are non-linear forms of shallow water equations with a friction term. The
formulas are solved in Cartesian coordinate system (Imamura et. al, 2006) [19, 20, 21, 42].

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Tsunami snapshots show that the 1945 Makran event affected all the neighboring countries
including Iran, Oman, Pakistan, and India (Figure 2). The results of initial tsunami generation
based on the fault parameters given by Byrne et al. (1992) are shown in Figure 2(a). Tsunami
snapshots (Figures 2(b), 2(c), 2(d), 2(e) and 2(f)) show the estimated wave propagation at t=
30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 minutes after the tsunamigenic earthquake, respectively. Along the
southern coast of Pakistan, the tsunami wave reaches Pasni in about 5 to 15 minutes, Ormara
in about 60 minutes, and Karachi in about 110 minutes. While along the southern coast of Iran,
the tsunami wave reaches Chabahar in about 30 to 35 minutes and Jask in about 70 to 75
minutes. After the earthquake, the tsunami wave reaches the coast of Oman namely at Muscat
in about 40 minutes, Sur in about 30 to 40 minutes, Masirah in about 60 to 70 minutes, Sohar
in about 80 minutes, and Duqm in about 130 minutes. Furthermore, the tsunami wave reaches
the western coast of India along the Gulf of Kachchh in about 240 minutes, Okha in about 185
minutes, Dwarka in about 150 minutes, Porbandar in about 155 minutes, Mumbai in about 300
minutes, and Goa in about 215 minutes. It is also observed that the distance from epicentre to
Mumbai is less than Goa, but the arrival time of the first tsunami wave at the Mumbai is more
than Goa. It could be due to the fact that Mumbai offshore is shallower that Goa and also due
to the directivity of tsunami wave propagation. It is well known that most of the tsunami’s
energy travels perpendicular to the strike of the fault which is due to directivity (Ben-Menahem
and Rosenman 1972; Singh et al., 2012, Patel et al., 2014) [3]. Due to this effect, most of the
tsunami energy propagates in the direction. The tsunami travel time map is shown in Figure 3.

Figure 4 shows the maximum calculated tsunami run-ups along western coast of India for
a tsunami simulation of 360 minutes. The simulated results show that the maximum tsunami
height is about 5–6 m near the southern coast of Pakistan, which is corroborated with the
previous researchers in the same region (Page et al., 1979; Ambraseys and Melville, 1982;
7. Tsunami Emergency Response System Using Geo-Information Technology Along the Western
Coast of India
http://www.iaeme.com/IJCIET/index.asp 424 editor@iaeme.com
Heidarzadeh et al., 2008) [17]. The maximum calculated tsunami run-ups were about 0.7–1.1
m along coast of Oman, 0.7–1.35 m along the western coast of India, 0.5–2.3 m along the
southern coast of Iran and 1.2–5.8m along the southern coast of Pakistan, respectively. The
tsunami run-up along the southern coast of Pakistan is far larger than that along the other coasts
and may be due to directivity of the tsunami.
It is believed that the digital topographical data is very important in detecting tsunami prone
area. The SRTM data are used to provide digital elevation information. Based on the processed
SRTM data in GIS/CAD, all low-lying coastal areas potentially at risk of tsunami flooding
have been identified. The classification of tsunami risk zone is based on elevation vulnerability
followed by Sinaga et al. (2011) [43]. However, for high resolution mapping of tsunami risk
zone along the coastal region, very high resolution topographical data and satellite images are
needed. In this study, we developed the methodology for creation of 3D infrastructure located
in tsunami risk zones using easily available and low cost Google earth images and SRTM data
in AutoCAD Map 3D software [40]. The coastal area of Okha Okha potentially affected at
different tsunami flooding scenarios shown in Figure 5. The 3D tsunami risk model of Okha at
different viewing angles is presented in Figures 6 (a)-(c). A red, blue or green colour scheme
was used to indicate the respective susceptibility to tsunami risk as shown in Figure 6 It shows
structures that are classified as very high risk, high risk and medium risk based on tsunami run-
up height.

4. CONCLUSION
Early warning technologies have greatly benefited from recent advances in geo-information
technologies and an improved knowledge on natural hazards and the underlying science.
Natural disaster management is a complex and critical activity that can more effectively with
the support of geo-information technologies and spatial decision support systems. The 1945
Makran tsunamigenic [13, 30, 46] earthquake is modeled using rupture parameters suggested
by Byrne et al. (1992). In most cases, the coastal regions which are far from the source have
smaller tsunami height and longer tsunami travel times compared with the coastal regions near
the source that have higher tsunami heights and shorter tsunami travel times. As a part of a
9. Tsunami Emergency Response System Using Geo-Information Technology Along the Western
Coast of India
http://www.iaeme.com/IJCIET/index.asp 426 editor@iaeme.com
tsunami emergency response system the 3D coastal maps should be produced for countries in
the vicinity of the MSZ, namely, Pakistan, India, Iran and Oman. The lessons learnt from the
Dec 2004 tsunami could be used for future planning. Ports, jetties, estuarine areas, river deltas
and population in and around the coast of Pakistan, India, Iran and Oman could be protected
with proper methods of mitigation and disaster management. In the future scientists/researchers
need to focus on 3D visualization and animation of tsunami risk. The study was performed to
show the advantages of 3D GIS/CAD models and satellite images in tsunami risk assessment
of the Okha coast, Gujarat. The main aim of the 3D Okha model is to visualize each building’s
tsunami risk level which improves decision maker’s understanding of the disaster level.
Merging of SRTM elevation data with satellite images is suitable for tsunami risk zone
classification. Combining the advanced computer aided modeling, GIS based modeling, marine
parameter measurements by ocean bottom seismometers and satellite, installations of tide
gauges and tsunami detection systems and also using conventional and traditional knowledge,
it is possible to develop a suitable tsunami disaster management plan.
