The images details the water logging area near Thiruvallur
Railway station and at Cooum river stagnant water bodies.
These may the breeding ground for mosquitoes and insects
if care is not taken. Interference of ancient planning of this
religious historical towns and villages by haphazard
modern housing urban development are other major issues
noticed in this study and are highlighted in this paper to
demonstrate the use of high resolution data for creation of
environment management GIS.

7.Conclusions
The study details the fact that the high resolution data
available in google map - Geo Eye data and Indian
satellites like Cartosat 1 data and Liss 4 Resourcesat
merged data and Cartosat 2 Data can make the work of
environmental and ecological managers easy as the eco
degradation problems can be studied with maped and
analysis can be done adding non spatial data to the attribute
table of GIS.
The places like Thiruvallur which have high density
of population and town ship created by converting wet
lands in river basin should be mapped with 1:1000 scale
GIS to improve ecology and environment. The GIS of the
town can be studied by delineating in to Environment and
Health Zones as detailed above.It is observed that LISS, 4,
5.8 m Resolution data is useful is creating Gis for Health to
understand problems from water bodies and abandoned
lakes and cultivated lands for this town which was a wet
land surrounded by cultivated paddy fields.
The Cartosat 1 stereo data is useful for mapping the
households, roads, agricultural fields, bushy areas and to
understand the natural drainage and topography of the area.
When the municipal ward maps are integrated with the GIS
the drainage, drinking water lines, street names and house
nos etc can be added to the attribute data.
If Cartosat 2 1m data is used the individual house
hold can be clearly mapped. It is observed that the PAN
merged data of Cartosat 1 and LISS 4 still meets the need
of Health Gis as almost all information can be given. It is
cost effective and most suitable to under stand the terrain
due to the Stereo Capability of Cartosat 1.
Liss III 22.8 m Resourcesat Indian data was useful to
study the Cooum basin and degradation by conversion of
wet lands in to housing plots. The programmes can be taken
up to reclaim the areas by reducing pollution and ecological
problems by the concerned implementing agency to have a
safe environmental living.
The Geo Eye data from Google earth of 2011 is useful
include latest data for understanding health and
environmental problems to update Environment and health
