The study mapped and analyzed spatiotemporal variability of quarry sites in Mpape District, Bwari Area Council of Abuja. The study used high-resolution IKONOS satellite image, ASTERDEM and Hi-Target Differential GNSS receivers. The result showed that nine quarry sites exist in Mpape with three abandoned and six are active while three are located in the center of Mpape with one active and two abandoned. The depth analysis revealed that the deepest site is 25 m at Julius Berger quarry site and the lowest depth was 6 m at Dantata quarry site. The study also reveals that the rocky surfaces has the highest elevation and are located in the upper and lower region of Mpape.
