Gis - Map Dha Multan
These features are categorized by functionality, ranging from basic navigation to advanced administrative tools.
Data sources (typical)
- Official DHA Multan planning office (parcel/ownership, approved layouts).
- Municipal and provincial authorities (utilities, roads, topographic surveys).
- Satellite imagery providers (recent orthophotos).
- OpenStreetMap for base features and roads.
- Field GPS surveys and utility-as-built drawings.

Security and Privacy Concerns
Is the GIS map safe? Yes. DHA Multan does not display sensitive owner names or contact details on the public-facing GIS map. It only displays plot numbers, dimensions, and block details. To get title ownership data, you must enter a specific file number via a secure login portal, often requiring verification. gis map dha multan
4. 3D Terrain View
For sites near the riverbed or low-lying areas, the 3D GIS view shows elevation levels. This is vital because plots on higher ground are less prone to waterlogging and command a premium price. Security and Privacy Concerns Is the GIS map safe
Phases and Sectors Covered
The DHA Multan GIS map currently covers: these are lines on a map
- Phase 1 (A, B, C, D, E, F, G Sectors): Mostly developed and possession-ready. The GIS map shows mature landscaping, operational mosques, and completed road networks.

- General Block & Overseas Block: Dedicated sectors for general public and overseas Pakistani investors.
2. Plot & Property Information (The "Cadastre" Module)
This is the most used feature for buyers and residents.
- Plot Search: Search bar to find specific plots by Sector, Block, and Plot Number (e.g., "Sector A, Plot 123").
- Plot Identity (Click-to-Info): Clicking on a plot polygon opens a popup displaying:
- Plot Size (e.g., 10 Marla, 1 Kanal).
- Plot Dimensions (Length x Width).
- Plot Category (Corner, Boulevard, Standard).
- Status (Under Development, Possession Open, Balloted, Vacant).
- Facing Direction: Indicator showing if the plot is East, West, North, or South facing.
- Built-Up Status: Visual indicator if a plot has a constructed house (Grey/Red overlay) or is vacant (Green overlay).
5. Measurement & Drawing Tools
Interactive tools for planning and marketing.
- Distance Measurement: Measure the distance between a plot and the Main Gate or a specific landmark (in meters/kilometers).
- Area Calculator: Calculate the precise area of a park or a commercial zone.
- Drop Pin/Bookmark: Users can save specific locations to check later (useful for investors visiting multiple plots).
- Buffer Analysis: "Show me all 1 Kanal plots within 500 meters of the Central Park."
4.1. The Boundary as a Barrier
On the map, DHA Multan is demarcated by distinct boundaries. To the outsider, these are lines on a map; to the resident, they are security checkpoints and perimeter walls. GIS mapping reinforces the concept of the "gated community." The map highlights the dichotomy between the planned grid of DHA and the adjacent, often unplanned, peri-urban settlements. This creates a "sharp edge" in urban geography, where access to services like underground electrification and metalled roads abruptly ends at the DHA perimeter.
