Integrating Geology in Urban Planning : Bangladesh, China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Republic of Korea, Sri Lanka, Thailand, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, VietNam

The Atlas of Urban Geology series is published by ESCAP in an effort to familiarize member countries with the outcome of a series of projects that are aimed at encouraging governments to make more efficient use of their own in-house expertise in earth sciences such as exists in national geological survey departments.

Doing so should enhance the chances of attaining sustainable urban development, a professed goal of virtually all governments in the Asia-Pacific region, where soon city dwellers will outnumber rural populations.
