    transportation engineering firms today produce digital data for their designs, mostly in the form of 2D files in either Microstation (.dgn) or Autocad (.dwg) format. These files represent the plan layout, in the real world project coordinate system, of each discipline of work: roadway, drainage, structure, electrical, communications, and so on. Some of the digital data represents other views, such as profile, elevation, cross sections, and highly complex digital data contains non-graphic data such as

    in these categories. Topographic variables were calculated using the Spatial Analyst extension to ArcGIS® 10.2.2 by ESRI to derive the slope, elevation and aspect, based on a 10 m spatial resolution digital elevation model (DEM, 1:5,000 scale), developed by SITGA (Galician Territorial Information System). The slope was defined as a percentage and elevation in meters. Aspect was defined as the compass direction that the slope faces: N (315º to 360º and 0º to 45º), W (45º to 135º), S (135º to 225º)

    3. Methods Since the study area is surrounded by two major rivers the vast plains and fans are suspected to contain some level water logging. For this study the inundation distribution of the study area is taken from PNG Resource Information System (PNGRIS, 2008). The data is in polygon shape file format and coded with classes of inundation types from ‘tidal flooding, permanent flooding to the least as ‘no flooding’. For this study ‘no flooding’ level is excluded. According to PNG forestry logging

    systems even more vital. Remote sensing has become essential in protecting the safety of civilians from natural disasters. Satellites can help organizations like the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) track these storms, create models for potential strengthening and their paths, and inform the population so local governments, state governments, and the individual can begin to prepare. Additionally, the importance of disaster relief in the aftermath of a hurricane is great given
