GIS-Based Multi-Criteria Evaluation to Identify Areas for Soil and Water Conservation in Lower Lake Bogoria Landscapes, Baringo County, Kenya

This study was meant to ensure that there is proper and efficient conservation of soil water using geospatial tools enable us identify priority areas carry out conservation. Over the past years, various fields have established how critical it conserve these natural resources in ecosystem sustainability not only green livelihoods but also enhance living conditions life on earth. The aim this research generate high sites for establishing techniques Lower Bogoria Landscapes Baringo, Kenya GIS-based multicriteria decision analysis. Various criteria were analyzed final sites, such as land use cover, rainfall runoff, erosion slope. assigned weights AHP technique overlayed weighted overlay produce outputs. Land cover maps generated supervised maximum likelihood technique, run-off SCS-CN method RUSLE model. showed moderate requiring establishment mechanisms control increased from 1990 2020.
