Integrative Gi Technology Applied to Best-site Selection for Industrial Areas in Erbil City, Iraq Amjed Naser Mohsin Al-hameedawi German edition

By many developed nations industry is viewed as their predominant development strategy. Progress in the field of industry became the goal of countries seeking to witness quantum leaps in all directions in order to ensure a decent living for their citizens. The strategy of site selection is serious to any successful investment process or to any project or economic activity. All relevant spatial criteria must be wellorganised and combined to make right decisions by means of the site selection process. To achieve this goal a lot of efforts were made where integration between the site selection process and current/future plans was reviewed. Hence, all of this information was into account and combined with the site selection process. The applied research laid the foundations for minimizing the gap between documentation and analysis of spatial patterns of LULC in the site selection process. It paved the way to more extended applied research in the fields of geographic information sciences for spatial planning tasks in vulnerable regions.
