VMR development Plan: Environment

The objective of the Studio was to delineate Vadodara Metropolitan region and develop strategies to achieve a vision. As part of the study,  along with my group, I studied the natural environment of the area. The aim was to identify areas where  development should be prohibited and controlled. Implying the identified areas will be very sensitive to uphold further development. The features we analyzed were groundwater quality and quantity, Forest cover and coast. We arrived at sensitive areas from the analysis for VMR. Each sector did a similar exercise.
