This two-volume set showcases the various ways in which geospatial technology can be used to achieve sustainable development goals across different sectors such as urban planning, natural resource management, agriculture, disaster management, and energy management. The books provide insights into the potential of geospatial technology in promoting sustainable development practices and addressing challenges related to climate change, environmental degradation, and socio-economic development. Both volumes together are a comprehensive guide that showcases the potential of geospatial technology in promoting sustainable development practices across different sectors, and will serve as an essential resource for professionals, policymakers, researchers, and students interested in sustainable development and geospatial technology. Volume 1 introduces the intertwined realms of sustainable development and geospatial technology. It navigates readers through the fundamental principles of sustainable development, exploring its goals and the pivotal role geospatial technology plays in its realization. Beginning with an overview of these critical concepts, it subsequently dives into the core foundations of geospatial technology, covering Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, spatial data analysis, and data visualization. The volume also encompasses the practical aspects of sustainable urban planning, natural resource management, and transportation planning using GIS, underpinning the relevance of geospatial technology in addressing contemporary global challenges. 1 Introduction to Sustainable Development and Geospatial Technologies -- 2 The Role of Geospatial Technology in Sustainable Development -- 3 Integrated Water Resource Management -- 4 Construction Embodied Water Concept -- 5 Ground Water Conditions in Part of Bundelkhand Region (Jhansi District) -- 6 Resettlement of Riverine Habitats Due to Forced Displacement -- 7 Multicriteria GIS-based Approach to Locate Suitable Rainwater Harvesting Sites in Bhilwara City -- 8 Harnessing Geospatial Technology for Sustainable Development -- 9 Assessing the Wall Material for Energy Efficiency and Cost Efficiency in Warm and Humid Climate -- 10 The Potential of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) as a Tool to Achieve Sustainable Development Goals -- 11 Geomatics Approaches for Traffic Congestion Study -- 12 GIS-Based Model for Urban Flood Assessment -- 13 Multifaceted Applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems (UAVs) in Precision Agriculture -- 14 Enhancing Environmental Sustainability -- 15 Improving Accessibility to Urban Blue-Green Spaces -- 16 Water Quality Assessment and Designated Best Use Determination of Ganga River, Kanpur. edited by Chetan Sharma, Anoop Kumar Shukla, Shray Pathak, Vijay P.
