There are many issues that need to be addressed. The problem is find out a that where the alignment is influenced by the location properties like geographical, topographical, soil and slope variations and lad uses too if we find all this by a conventional method then it can take huge time in this tedious process and take huge expenses too so overcome too this conventional method we want to introduce some Morden techniques which is more time resistant, less expensive and accurate too.
A GIS is a system of hardware and software that is used to capture, store, analyse, manage and distribute spatial data, GIS is a vast array of spatial analysis tools that can be used to perform tasks, such as overlay and proximity analysis. The conventional manual methods were tedious, time taking, lengthy and expensive.in this paper we are discriminating the conventional method and modern methods. The factors that we are concern about it are mainly land use, slope, drainage and soil. The based on GIS thematic maps and network analysis in arc GIS we can get best route out of various alternate alignment based on near services area, less stop, river crossings, and where more in habitants lived etc. Key Words: Railway Alignment, GIS, Network Analysis
1. INTRODUCTION OF GIS A GIS is a system of hardware and software that is used to capture, store, analyze, manage, and distribute spatial data. GIS has a vast array of spatial analysis tools that can be used to perform tasks, such as overlay and proximity analysis. GIS allows spatial information to be attributed with fields describing spatial features, such as a river, having the attribute name. Spatial datasets can be stored in a structured and logical manner within a GIS database. The spatial data and associated attribute information can be used to perform Complex analysis. GIS includes mapping tools for high quality cartographic output and distribution tools such as web-based mapping tools. Printing basic maps Data used within the viewer was displayed from the working and reference Geodatabases to reflect updates and edits made to the Geodatabases. © 2017, IRJET

The GIS system used with the Inland Rail project consisted of six main components: • GIS viewer – software application used to view spatial data • Geodatabase – spatial data repository • Maps – generated for reports • Quantities – summary information for each alignment •Scripts – programming tools used to automate the generation of Quantities • modeling tools – tools used for predicting an outcome based upon a set of rules and procedures.
1.2 Analyze GIS Data A simple and intuitive interface was established for the design teams to access current spatial information for the entire study area. A simple GIS viewer was supplied to the study teams for use as a decision support tool. The viewer had the capability to view, explore and print GIS data. This viewer enabled users to perform basic GIS tasks including: • measuring distance and area • querying GIS data • searching and identifying features and generating basic maps Data used within the viewer was displayed from the working and reference Geodatabases to reflect updates and edits made to the Geodatabases.
2. Conventional method In the manual method how we can get generate railway alignment by the following various surveys which consume a huge time and money and sources too. In order to have a proper and satisfactory new route, various surveys are carried out: 1.
Reconnaissance Survey
2.
Preliminary Survey
3.
Location Survey
