HEADS Site Description
HEADS Site – Irrigation is a CAD-based software. HEADS Site can be used to design irrigation projects such as canals, bunds and dykes. It can also measure the volume of storage water in a dam or barrage reservoir by recording rise and fall of water levels using digital terrain model & contours. This is done by downloading ground elevation data from the satellite's shuttle radar topography mission (SRTM). The data was downloaded from global mapper from satellite. The bishop's method provides slope stability analysis. It can handle various Survey data, DTM and triangulation, contour, satellite imagery, conversion from TM to UTM (GPS coordinates), communication with Google Earth to plan for bypass or green field bypass alignments. Ground elevation data can be downloaded online from the shuttle radar topography mission SRTM from internet without any field topo survey. Alignment geometric design is also possible.
