2. INTRODUCTION
•The satellite city is one of the popular concepts in the urban planning.
•It is the small metropolitan area is located near to the large metropolitan area.
•The satellite town has the traditional downtown that surrounded by the neighborhoods of
inner city.
•It is the concept of the satellite that the man made satellite was launched into the orbit.
•Thesatellite cityorsatellite townmanages the urban sprawl. The satellite town provides
best solution to the urbanisation problems.
•Thesatellite cityorsatellite townmanages the urban sprawl. The satellite town provides
best solution to the urbanisation problems.
•The satellite town is designed to help the city extend in the effective way.
•It is planned city that loaded with the huge range of the amenities such as school, hospital,
shopping center and others.
•The satellite town is separated from the metropolis by the geographic barrier, territory and
others such as river.
•The main purpose of the satellite city is to offer the balance between the resources and
population.

3. •There are many large metropolitan cities all over the world.
•Cities like Delhi, New York, London, Sydney, Los Angeles, Mumbai, Shanghai, Beijing,
and Rio de Janeiro have large populations.
•There are hundreds of cities all over the world today that have populations of more than a
million people.
•Some cities have populations over 20 million people.
•These are extremely large metropolitan areas in various different parts of the world.
•Satellite Cities are metropolitan cities that are smaller cities that are near large cities but
are not part of the large city near them and have a separate local government and are
characterized as separate cities.
•The satellite city is not part of the greater metropolitan area of the large city that it is
situated close to but the larger city near the satellite city definitely has an influence on its
satellite city.
•The satellite town is developed with the eco-friendly development. It is self-containing and
independent cities.

4. •The main aim of satellite town is to develop the affordable housing for the huge section of the
society. The satellite town should be able toaccommodatethe smart generation to assure the
systematic development.
•The government agencies are designed the satellite town by considering various factors such as
security, rounded plan, heavy capital and others.
•The security is one of the important factors to consider when planning the satellite city.
•The safety of the people is primary concern for the planner. In the smart city planning process,
the security issues should be carefully ingrained that allow them to build the quality residential
project to the people.
•The planner should also consider the demographic factors such as education centers, population,
socio-economic conditions, and others.

Often there are good transport services between the satellite city and the large parent city nearby.
Trains, buses, and road transport is swift, efficient and on time in between these two types of
cities as commuters from satellite cities often travel daily to the large city nearby for work, for
education and other economic, recreational and social activities.

7. NEED
•Severe uncontrolled growth of urban population.
•Problem in managing already over strained cities.
•Increase in the demand for infrastructure facilities and amenities.
•Land shortage ,housing shortfall, inadequate transportation.
•Challenges in management of essential infrastructure like.
1. water supply
2.sewerage
3.drainage
4.solid waste disposal
•Tremendous strain on the delivery of services in major cities due to the concentration of
economic activities and population.
•Need for decentralization of activities so as to reduce the burden on these cities.
