using parametric approaches for qualitative assessment of land suitability is a useful method for diagnosis of land capability and potential in optimum crop production. by using such methods will hope that to achieve sustainability in based on fao land evaluation frame works and the presented tables of soil and climate requirements for agronomic crops. we studied qualitative land suitability fo...

Problem statement: Evaluating land suitability and selecting crops in modern agriculture is of critical importance to every organization. This is because the narrower area of land, the more effectiveness in planting is required in accordance with the desires of the land. Process of evaluating land suitability class and selecting plants in accordance with decision marker’s requirements is comple...

Land-use suitability is the ability of a given type of land to support a defined use. Analysis of land-use suitability requires the consideration of a variety of criteria, not only the natural/physical capacity of a land unit, but also its socioeconomic and environmental impact implications. As land suitability is assessed within a Geographic Information System (GIS) environment, it is formulat...

in this research, the groundwater quality of abhar plain was studied for drinking, domestic and irrigation uses. to assess the evaluation of hydrochemistry and quality, 26 groundwater samples were collected and analyzed for the physicochemical factors such as ph, electric conductivity (ec), total dissolved solids (tds), total hardness (th), na+, k+, ca2+,mg2+, cl-, so42-, hco3-, co32- during oc...

soil and water assessment tool model, swat, uses different layers of watershed data which out of soil layer is the important one. soil layer data should be extracted from detailed soil maps. in most developing countries including iran, these detailed maps are not available except for irrigation districts and rarely for dry land farming areas and also for some strategic places of development pur...
