Abstract: Abstract: Background: The Industrial Revolution and globalization spurred global economic growth, creating
financial hubs like New York and London. India’s post-independence focus on industrialization and 1991
liberalization fueled rapid growth in IT, manufacturing, and finance, with Mumbai emerging as a trade and
investment hub. Maharashtra’s robust industrial base and Mumbai’s strategic coastal location, migration, and
key institutions like the RBI and BSE cemented its status as India’s financial capital.
Aim: [3][4]To understand and evaluate GIS Mapping of Mumbai concerning economic growth and
sustainability.
Objectives: To identify the financial zones in Mumbai using GIS Mapping, to analyze the literature and case
studies in Mumbai using GIS, and to develop Maps for demographic data and economic growth of Mumbai.
Research question: RQ 1) What are the demographic characteristics of Mumbai? RQ 2) Why is Mumbai
considered the financial capital of India in terms of economic growth?
Methods and results: With the use of ArcGIS Pro and census data (2011) in shape files and table data, we
developed a suite of symbology maps to visually represent and analyze data patterns and growth trends.
Conclusion: Through ten literature reviews, the identified research gaps in Mumbai provided valuable insights
into the city’s financial growth. I utilized GIS tools to create maps that integrate demographic, GDP, and
population data. These GIS maps reveal patterns that impact the planning and implementation of economic
strategies in Mumbai. This research provides essential insights into spatial planning and financial
management within the city, emphasizing how Mumbai’s economic growth plays a crucial role in India’s
overall economic progress, effectively illustrated through the GIS visuals.
Limitations: This study focuses on demographic and economic spatial data due to limitations in data
availability and time constraints. Future research on Mumbai could expand to include sustainable indicators
such as environmental factors, technological advancements, and governance practices.
Keywords: GIS, geospatial data, mapping, spatial patterns, sustainability, socio-economy, demography,
Mumbai, growth
