The emergence of many Nigeria from colonial rule in the 60s brought grim prospects of widespread border conflicts. These fears were borne out of the fact that European diplomats who had only limited knowledge of local realities artificially forged most of the boundaries of African territories Continue Reading
This studyanalyzed the spatial distribution of GSM base stations (masts) in Zaria Urban area,Kaduna State, Nigeria. The existing base stations(masts) were identified and mapped using World Health Organization (WHO) (2007) regulations for locating a GSM Base Stations, that Mast should be erected ten (10) meters away from the residential areas.

The study is on Biophysical Characteristics and Landuse/landcover Changes in the Upper Kubanni River Basin, Kaduna State, Nigeria. The objectives are mainly to assess the local vegetation cover; Continue Reading
Zaria has for long attracted people from other places due to the variety of functions that it performs. Consequently, the pressure of population has led to increased demand for land, thus leading to a rise in land value as well as vibrancy in the land market. And the city has become polycentric, growing from having one centre to eight centre and su... Continue Reading
A cadastral survey was carried out and plots were physically delineated on the ground with beacons at the corners of each plot. Land right were orally transmitted and the evidence of such land rights has been based on the knowledge of community elders and village chiefs. Continue Reading
This study is aimed at an assessment of the impact of the growth of Zaria town on the vegetation covers of the surrounding region. The objectives were to map out and analyse the land use and land cover of the area, derive the vegetation cover index (NDVI) from the multitemporal data set, correlate the city expansion rate with the vegetation cover i...

The study area is producing oil field that falls within a complex geology formation in the Northern Niger Delta basin with an unusual elevation anomaly relative to the neighbouring oil concessions. The choice of 21m SDH (Single Deep Hole) being deployed to the study area for the first time was geared at averting the high weathered layer thickness m... Continue Reading
The project involves designing and creation of a digital cadastre for State Residential Layout Behind Sunshine Estate, Oda Road, Akure South Local Government of Ondo State comprising of a total 72 plots. It is limited to GIS integration of land ownership records and maps, land use pattern, status, processing, queries/analysis and retrieval of ... Continue Reading
Cloud storage services have aroused great interest in modern information technology, providing a simple way of storing and sharing files. However, they are mostly built on centralized architectures and hence subject to drawbacks. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are a good alternative to deal with the limitations of centralized systems in the scope of... Continue Reading
