Disadvantage of Raster data

  1. Difficult to represent: It is difficult to represent linear features such as accurate network linkage are difficult to establish.
  2. Vector Form: Most input data is in vector form, therefore data must undergo vector-to-raster conversion.
  3. Do not Conform: Most output maps do not conform to high quality cartographic needs.
  4. Large size: Larger file size.     
  5. Edit difficult: Difficult to edit.
  6. Difficult to build relation: Difficult to build topographic relationship.
  7. Inefficient projection: Inefficient projection transformation.
  8. Hard to Represent: Hard to represent objects less than cell size.
  9. Generates Huge Data: Finer resolution generates huge data.
  10. Discrete Feature: Highly generalized representation of discrete features.
  11. Limited interactivity: Limited interactivity 
  12. More primitive: More primitive analysis algorithm.

Concentric zone theory

Theories of City Structure-Concentric Zone Theory Introduction: The Concentric or Zonal Theory of urban landuse was first proposed in 1923 by E.W. Burgess. He was a sociologist. The idea behind the concentric model is that the development of a city takes place outwards from its central area in a series of concentric circles to form zones.  Assumption:        i.           Cultural & social heterogeneity of the population.       ii.           Commercial-industrial base to the economy of the city.     iii.           Private ownership of property & economic competition for space.     iv.           Expanding area & population of the city.       v.    ...

Sources of Water Mass

Sub-surface water masses formation is more active in the North & South Atlantic & the South Pacific & moderately active in the North Pacific. The sub-surface water masses is not active in the Indian Ocean because of its location in the southern hemisphere. The following arte major source areas of the origin of subsurface water masses-                                            i.           Norwegian Sea Area,                                           ii.           Irminger ...

Future scenario of Renewable Energy Resource in India

Future scenario of Renewable Energy Resource in India: The Indian Government has increased the target of renewable energy capacity to 175 GW by the year 2022, which includes 100 GW ( gigawatts) from solar, 60 GW from wind, 10 GW from bio-power & 5 GW from small hydro-power. Source 2022 Target (GW) Solar 100 Wind 60 Bio-Power 10 Small Hydro-Power 5 Future Scenario of Solar Energy:       Solar power in India is a fast developing industry.       The country’s solar installed capacity reached 29.55 GW as of 30 June 2019.       India has become globally the lowest cost producer of solar power.       The Indian Government has increased the target of renewable energy capacity to 175 GW by the year 2022, which includes 100 GW from solar. Advantage: Advantage of using solar energy is its eco-friendly nature. It does not release CO 2  and o...
