摘要：Environmental modelling using spatial technology (GIS, RS & GPS), as platform, can support manydatabase queries tied to spatially referenced object and their associated attributes in waste land reclamation andmanagement. Waste lands, which are marginally suitable area in open forest, found after analysis and modeling in GISas 33.37 sq. km. This waste land area can be developed by considering basic needs like energy and biomass for localcommunity members. Genesis of wasteland and their typologies into degraded forests, undulating land, gullied andravinous land, degraded pastures, waterlogged, salt-affected and sand-affected areas etc. have been mapped andanalyzed with special reference to their relationship to natural environment, other land uses, human response and theproblems and potentialities for reclamation. Action plan was developed for management and development of wastelands into forest cover to achieve sustainability.
