Abstract
Abstract. An attempt has been made to develop Rishikesh Urban Information System (RUIS) with this concern in mind so that efforts made during data collection and acquisition of latest data on resources available in the Rishikesh township and its environs can be used by the administrators, town planners, tourists and even common man to locate and appraise of the areas of their interest. The study of Rishikesh township and its environs carried out in this work would be useful in formulating developmental planning strategies in the area, as the spatial and attribute information about various utilities-facilities and geoenvironmental parameters is available in a georeferenced GIS mode. RUIS is a GIS based application system that amalgamates Visual Basic .Net, ESRI MAP OBJECT 2.0, and Microsoft Access. This system allows linkage of spatial and attributes data with suitable visual display of both the data types. RUIS supports on screen map viewing with attribute information to provide meaningful insights into the geo-aspects of the region for updating the knowledge of planners and tourists interested in this area. Anyone can easily access it anytime, anywhere by using internet.
