The document outlines the development of a web-GIS based utility management system designed to effectively manage complex utility networks in Pokhara, Nepal. The system utilizes drone surveying, GPS data, and various software tools to create a spatially linked database for better service delivery. Key challenges include technological limitations and the lack of maintained utility data, while recommendations focus on establishing a central database system involving local authorities and service providers.

2. Introduction
 GIS- System designed to capture,
manipulate, analyze, manage and present all
types of geographical data
 Tools for problem solving and decision
making as well as visualization of data
 Important role for preparation of utility map
and its use in real field

3. Introduction
 Utilities- Services that are useful, profitable
or beneficial to community
 Utility component spreads all over a certain
place forming utility network
 Very complex networks
 Includes road network, drainage network,
electrical network, telephone and television
network, sewer network, gas line, water
mains, fire fighting network
 Proper management required for excellent
service delivery

4. Objective
 Primary objective
 Prepare Web-GIS based utility management
system
 Secondary objective
 Study existing utility network
 Prepare spatially linked digital database of utility
networks

5. Study Area
Deep Housing

6. Study Area
 Located at Pokhara, Kaski
 Latitude: 28015’8.55” Longitude: 83058’38.32”
 Managed by Roadshow Real Estate Private
Limited
 100 bungalows and 1 apartment
 Total area: 31502.5 sq.m (61-14-3-0.28)

7. Methodology

9. Procedure

10. Drone Surveying
Two Flight Plans
 Single grid at 90
degree of
inclination
 Double grid at 45
degree of
inclination

11. Image Processing
 Processed using Pix4D
 Cloud computing technique
 Orthophoto generation

13. Data Collection
 Primary data:
Data collected in field
GPS data and Drone survey
 Secondary data:
Existing CAD data
Paper maps
Querying with individuals

14. …….Shapefile Preparation
 Using ArcMap
 Shapefile of all utility networks and base
layers
 Using GPS survey
 Road network
 Drainage network
 Street Light

15. …….Shapefile Preparation
 Using existing CAD data and orthophoto
digitization
 Electrical network

 Sanitary network
 Water network

16. ……..Shapefile Preparation
 Other base layer using orthophoto
digitization
 Building
 Parks
 Temple
 Swimming Pool
 Housing Boundary

17. Database Preparation
 Filling attribute data and spatial data into
spatial database
 Using Postgresql with PostGIS Extension
 17 spatially linked table and 1 non-spatial
table inside database

18. Implementation in web
 Frontend
HTML
CSS
JavaScript
 Leaflet
 Mapbox
 Jquery
 Jquery UI
 Backend
Django

 Web-GIS system for utility management
 Layer based utility network information
 Effective for planning, maintaining and
updating the utility features
 Digital database preparation and operating
spatial function

29. I am the only one
who knows about all
the Utilities…

30. No Uncle!!!
Things have changed

31. Recommendation
 Municipalities and local governmental
bodies
 Establishment of central database system
 All the utility service provider
 Real estate companies
 Time for change

33. Thank You !!!
