Dhaka city is a big city and capital of Bangladesh. It has a population of more than 20 million . and every day millions of people came to do his beusines . Nowadays Mirpur is the most important area in Dhaka city. There are many head offices of government departments, refreshing zones, zoo, small industri, an International Cricket stadium, slums, and low income communities growing up in Mirpur area. As a result the normal ecosystem is broken down. Lot of issues are created. It is natural in the urbanization process. But as a developing country and globalization, people’s mobilization is not good practice for us .So Dhaka city needs a good sustainable urban planning, its implementation for now and future. Health, emergency services, transportation, government facilities, and entertainment zones are crucial parts of urban planning. Location based Data is the main part of a good urban plan . So we take the decision to collect all Point of interest(POI) data from the field.
