Suitability Analysis of Petrol Filling Station Site Using GIS

Petrol filling stations are amongst those that have high potential of fire hazard due to their dangerous storage, hence their placement should be carried out properly. Their improper placement could lead to disastrous consequences during fire and causing pollution to surrounding soil and underground...
