The image was acquired from Google Earth to create the map of structures/buildings of the study area as the first step of creating the GIS database. The images were geometrically rectified to a known coordinate system (Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) 37S on the basis of a number of Ground Control Points (GCPs), selected from the periphery of the study area so that possible errors would converge towards middle of the area. Images were converted into TIFF files in ArcGIS10x software.
