Richview Memorial Cemetery
-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
What NOT to do…
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

Conclusions In general the final decisions for
choosing these three suitable cemetery locations were determined by their:1. Parcel size: The bigger the Better2. Proximity to the road network: They
have to be accessible. 3. Proximity to various constraints and
