Abstract

In the recent past few years’ growth of population and uncontrolled urbanization has made solid waste management an important issue for Environmental sustainability. In the recent years GIS is one of the powerful tool for suitable site selection for urban solid waste management. Using toposheet map & Landsat TM-5 satellite data for generation of road, water body, river, settlement & land cover map the existing disposal site were located from the distance of road 100mt, river 300mt, settlement 200mt, and water body 200mt. the disposal site were located to Gorbudih, Baludih, Petia, Bhaga Bandh, Shiyalguri, Kantapahari, Kustor, Bhuli, Kurmidih, Patraku and Damodarpur at Dhanbad block. Major suitable site is situated in the southern part of the study area. The selected site for solid waste dumping is 1-1.5 km of the residential area and the area under grass land and open space area.
