Current Research Interests
- Construction of 3-D geologic model of Hanoi City, Vietnam
- Spatial distribution of land subsidence in Hanoi City, Vietnam, using GIS
and RS
Hanoi City is located in a flood plain of the Red River, the average elevation
being less than 10 meters. In this city, where people depend on the groundwater
to sustain life, the recent rapid increase of population is increasing
demand of groundwater as well. This has caused a remarkable and serious
land subsidence over the whole urban area. To comprehend what happens around
a serious land subsidence area, it is necessary to understand the distribution
of groundwater in the subsurface structure. Because 3-D geologic modeling
is useful for solving this kind of problem, I will introduce this technique
into area studies and propose to establish this method as a special analysis
using area informatics. The linked research between the subsurface information
and aboveground information will become a new type of knowledge in area
studies.
