Spatial suitability for healthy land uses in the city of Nasiriyah Using geographic information systems

The research seeks to evaluate the efficiency of sanitary land uses in the city of Nasiriyah by using some spatial and statistical tools available in the geographic information systems environment represented by the (GIS) program. It has become clear that there is a large spatial variation in the distribution of urban services at the level of the citys neighborhoods in terms of their spatial distribution and efficiency. Functionally, it is difficult to work on redistributing these services in terms of the economic costs that will be spent on them, as well as the reflection of their negative effects, whether psychological or historical, on the residents of the city of Nasiriyah. Accordingly, spatial analyst applications were used Within the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) environment, for the purpose of building a spatial suitability model that contributes to choosing the best suitable locations for distributing urban services, including health services in the city of Nasiriyah in the future, which basic design planners and decision makers can rely on when choosing locations to distribute those services. The researcher worked to use the techniques available within geographic information systems and based on remote sensing data to build a spatial suitability model for the most appropriate locations that can be used in signing and building new urban services.
