The main objective of this study is to develop a GIS based database for peri urban areas and developing a system model for a reasonable density value. Southern part of the Chennai Metropolitan Area has been selected as the study area. This has been divided into five zones with respect to population and growth. This geo-database consists of land use and population data, collected from Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority. This study has been done under the do minimum condition of taking 275 persons/ha as density value, zone 4, namely Perumbakkam, the excess of floor area (maximum value) observed in the horizon year 334.96 ha. In a desirable condition, taking the density value as 333 persons/ha in zone 2, namely, Okkiyam thuraipakkam, the excess floor area (maximum value) observed in the horizon year was 795.77 ha, whereas in an extreme condition, taking density value as 500 persons/ha in zone 2, namely, Okkiyam thuraipakkam, the excess floor area (maximum value) observed in the horizon year as 1754.07 ha. We have created the geo database for all the five zones with vital attribute data and system model developed for a density value of 275/ha with growth rate of 6% for every year which shows good result in land area availability in all the five zones. Hence, it is recommended that for the development of peri urban areas in southern part of Chennai Metropolitan Area (CMA), this density value may be considered.
