Preparation of VDC Level Land Resource Maps (Present Land Use Maps, Soil Maps, Land Capability Maps, Land Use Zoning Maps, VDC Profile for Land Use Zoning and Superimpose of Cadastral Layer), Data Base and Reports, Package – 9

Project Description

Preparation of VDC Level Present Land Use at Chitwan District VDC
• Preparation of current land use maps on the basis of land capability for the purpose of classification of agriculture land, forest area, pasture, built-up, industrial, water body, public service area, culture and heritage area and others,
• Zoning of urban and suburban areas for provision of basic urban facilities/infrastructures and for achieving environmental balance in urban areas,
• Sub-classification of agricultural areas into optimum production sub-areas based on soil characteristics, land capability, irrigated and potential irrigable areas to increase the productivity of the land,
• Delineation of natural resource areas for conservation of forest, shrubs/herbs, river, wetlands and other natural resources.

Assignment Description

Preparation of VDC Level Land Use Zoning Maps • Classification of various land use areas viz. agriculture, forest, grazing, built-up, industrial area, water body, public services area, culture and heritage area and others according to land capability, • Zoning of urban and suburban areas for achieving environmental balance in residential areas, • Sub-zoning of agricultural areas into optimum production sub-areas based on soil characteristics, land capability, irrigated and potential irrigable areas t o increase the productivity of the land, • Classification of natural resources areas for conservation of forest, shrubs/herbs, river, rivulets, wetland and other natural resources 2. Preparation of VDC Level Soil Maps • Preparation of soil map based on the characteristics and quality of soil for formulating VDC level land use plan incorporating agricultural area, forest area, grazing, built -up, industrial area, water body, public services area, culture and heritage area and others. • Identification and delineation of suitable area for development of urban and suburban areas for sustainability of environmental and provision of urban amenities/services. • Sub-division of agricultural areas into optimum production sub -areas based on characteristics, land capability, irrigated and potential irrigable areas to increase productivity of the land. • Identification and delineation of natural resources areas for conservation of forest, shrubs/herbs, river, rivulets, wetland and other natural resources. 3. Preparation of VDC Level Land Capability Maps • Preparation of land capability maps based on the characteristics and quality of soil for formulating VDC level land use plan incorporating agricultural area, forest area, grazing, built -up, industrial area, water body, public services area, culture and heritage area and others. • Identification and delineation of suitable area for development of urban and suburban areas for sustainability of environmental and provision of urban amenities/services. • Sub-division of agricultural areas into optimum production sub-areas based on soil characteristics, land capability, irrigated and potential irrigable areas to increase the productivity of the land. • Identification and delineation of natural resources areas for conservation of forest, shrubs/herbs, river, rivulets, wetland and other natural resources. 4. Preparation of VDC Profile for Land Use Zoning • Preparation of VDC profile for all seven VDCs to include the current state of socio-economy, demography, environment, history, culture, heritage, l and resource, agriculture, forest, cattle and others. • Preparation of VDC profile for preparation appropriate database system for land classification of various areas e.g. agriculture, forest, pasture, built-up, industrial area, water body, public services, cultural and heritage areas and others to implement district level land use projects. • Preparation of VDC profile for preparation of database for zoning of urban and suburban areas for provision of basic urban facilities and for achieving environmental balance in residential areas. • Preparation of VDC profile for agriculture related database by sub-zoning agricultural area into relatively lucrative areas according to soil quality, land capability, irrigated area etc. for increasing productivity. • Preparation of VDC profile for preparation of natural resource database for the proper conservation of forest, bushes, river, rivulets, wetland and other natural resources. 6. Superimpose of Cadastral Map • Superimpose the cadastral map on Land use Zoning Map of Corresponding VDC. • Analyzed the Land covered on land use zone classifying the personnel, government land by Superimpose of cadastral map. • Prepared the database for Land use project by Superimpose of cadastral map
