Abstract

Object Based GIS-T Data Model for Road Infrastucture Maintenance in Uganda

Super-resolution mapping There are several cases of poor transport services in Uganda that are caused by the bad state of roads. Road maintenance proved ad hoc until recently when the need for preventive maintenance was recognised and plans of making it a priority put in place. Since roads are geographically located, the use of Geographical Information Technologies (GITs) in collecting, managing and analysing road condition is paramount.
