STABILITY OF TERRAIN AND BUILDING LAND
IN THE CITY OF TUZLA
Abstract
This paper presents a GIS analysis on building land, in the city of Tuzla, from the aspect
of stability of the ground. For the purposes of the Physical plan Tuzla Canton, was created a
database of geospatial data, including the stability of the land too. But, but in that strategic
public document, there is no data of the stability of the building land. For the city of Tuzla as
well as most part of Tuzla Canton, a characteristic occurrence are landslides, and unstable part
of the building area.
Illegal construction is a phenomenon arose in the last few decades and greatly
complicates the solution of the problem endangerment of buildings due to the instability the
terrain. The consequences of the instability of building land, particularly of recent are reason
to identify quantitative indicators of stability/instability of building land. Also, the analysis of
spatial data taken from the Physical plan Tuzla Canton 2005-2025. Using GIS tools spatial
analysis was made in order to determine the structure of building land in terms of stability.
Operation overlapping layers of vector data of building land and land category for
stability, GIS tools was done splitting polygon of stability field with polygons of building
land order to get quantitative indicators on areas by the degree of stability of the building plot.
As result of the analysis was generated a new set of spatial data, whose spatial representation
made in vector form of polygons
Results of the analysis are the new data/information that quantitatively describe
proportions of this problem. Results are presented in tables/diagrams and maps. Cartographic
representations of spatial data, jointly with alphanumeric data, are the best indicators of the
results of this analysis, which is why it made map layout construction objects in terms of
stability of the terrain in the urban part of the city of Tuzla.
Keywords: Geographic Information System (GIS), physical plan, the stability of the terrain, building
structures, the analysis of spatial data, thematic maps.
