Abstract

In this paper, GIS technology integrates common database operation such as query and statistical analysis benefits offered by maps. This ability distinguish GIS from other information system and makes it valuable to a wide range of public and private enterprises for explaining events, predicting outcome and planning strategies. The soils at various places of the particular area are collected at the closest distance. QGIS open source software is used for mapping. We have collected samples from four places. From each place 6 KG of soil is collected. The current latitude and longitude position from where the samples are taken are located using GPS and are noted down. The Test was Carried on the Shear strength of the Soil are found by the Direct Shear Test, Bearing capacity of the Soil are found by the CBR(California Bearing Ratio, Permeability of the Soil are found by the Falling Head Flow Method for the Different Location
