Seismic mapping for the entire Bhubaneswar city
Bhubaneswar is a leading city in the country to be taken for such a survey by the Ministry of Earth Sciences. The Ministry has already started the initial survey to do a seismic micro-zonation mapping for the entire Bhubaneswar Development Plan Area (BDPA). In order to facilitate the survey, the state government has formed a committee under the chairmanship of Vice-Chairman BDA, so that the seismic (related to earthquake) mapping of the entire plan area under BDA jurisdiction would be done effectively.
