Pakistan and its neighboring counties contain all recognized kinds of most important plate boundaries as well as important dynamic intra-plate twists. Understanding the tectonics in this multifaceted area has been delayed by a relative lack of data and the difficulty of geologic and tectonic troubles. Even with the raise in the quantity of data in the past few years, the complications of the area need a multidirectional approach to cope with the geology and tectonics. Thus, in order to assemble huge, multidirectional data sets with varying superiority and resolution, this study takes on a Geographic Information System (GIS) approach to see at these troubles in a comprehensive and exceptional way. In this study, the authors compile maps of surficial tectonic features and deepness of the Moho, Pn velocities and Pg velocities for Pakistan and explain a cross-section means to work with data in a GIS format.

(Hons) degree in Space Science (specialization in Environment) from the Department of Space Science, University of the Punjab. In M.S Meteorology his research thesis was Application of Geographical information system for the tectonic Plate in Pakistan, while in B.Sc. (Hons) his research project was Spatial and Temporal Variation in Climate of Lahore (Pakistan) due to Rainfall. To date, the author has achieved many prizes, trophies and certificates. He stood distinguished in his batch at COMSATS Institute of Information Technology (CIIT), Islamabad in M.S., and was in the first merit list of CIIT and the Department of Space science, University of the Punjab, Lahore, at the time of his admission. Based on his outstanding academic career, the author has been awarded with a merit scholarship at CIIT. His research paper 'Spatial and Temporal Variation in Climate of Lahore (Pakistan) due to Rainfall' has been published in 'International Conference on Water, Environment and Health Sciences: The Climate Change Challenges'. This Conference was organized by the Universidad de las Americas, Puebla in April, 13-17, 2009, at Cholula, Puebla, Mexico. The author has a decent knowledge of Geographic Information System (GIS) with Elements of Mapping & Cartography and Application of Remote Sensing plus Digital Image Processing & Environment Science, Analysis, Meteorology and Climatology. Additionally, he has partaken in study projects at the COMSATS Institute of Information Technology (CIIT) and the University of the Punjab.
