RichviewMemorial Cemetery What NOT to do… -located in the cloverleaf intersection of highways 401 and 427 -exposed to all weather conditions -significant noise pollution -runoff, particulates and air pollution from surrounding roadways -unappealing visual aesthetics -not easily accessible
Avoidances Wetlands, water courses and water bodies Forested regions Steep slopes Major roadways Densely urbanized area Excessive noise Excessive Pollution Undesirable visual aesthetics
Physical Contraints Waterbodies, water courses, wet lands, and underground resevoirs buffer = 120 m Slope extracted slope values between 0.2-3 Forested land non-buffered constraint
Human Constraints • Water and solid dumpsites buffer = 1.5 km • Schools buffer = 500 m • Golf Courses buffer = 500m • Industrial land uses (transformers, auto wrecker sites (cut), lumber yard, mining areas, other industrial sites) buffer= 500 m Underground oil and natural gas pipelines buffer = 2 km Public Health and Safety Services (EMS stations, police stations, hospitals, fire stations) buffer = 1.5 km Airports buffer =1.5 km Amusement parks/exhibition fair grounds buffer =1.5 km GO railways buffer = 1.5 km
Tools and Tasks Data export Buffering Dissolve Union Spatial join (one-to-many) Erase
Conclusions • In general the final decisions for choosing these three suitable cemetery locations were determined by their: • Parcel size: The bigger the Better • Proximity to the road network: They have to be accessible. • Proximity to various constraints and Externalities:
