The growing recognition of the need to salvage the built
environment of man has been attributed to the wide
spread problems militating against the achievement of
the sustainable development goal of creating a livable
human environment envisioned by the United Nations in
the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The human
environment, especially from the dawn of the industrial
age, is increasingly becoming a relevant issue in man’s
continuous survival on the earth. One of the areas that
has been most hit by series of human activities is the
land. Most of man’s interactions with his environment
take place on the land. However because of the limited
nature of land and its resources, it becomes imperative to
develop a system capable of maximizing the use of land
for physical development within the built environment.
