| Abstract | ||
| Objectives: The study aims to shed light on the spatial distribution pattern of human urban settlements in Anbar Governorate and nature, and to reveal the factors that led to the identification of spatial patterns taken by those settlements. Methodology: The researcher followed the descriptive approach that depends on the study of the phenomenon as it exists in reality through attention as an accurate description as well as the systems approach (inductive analytical approach) through geographic information systems (GIS) technology, starting from collecting data preparation, processing and analyzing models using the program (Arc Map) through the spatial analysis package (Spatial Analysis). Results: The study showed that urban stability in Anbar province is linked to the relationship of man with his environment, as stability reflects the control of geographical factors (natural and human) that the centers of urban stability in Anbar province take multiple forms, and this in turn is the result of the control of geographical factors (natural and human) in that distribution, as the pattern of scattered distribution (random) appeared in the western plateau, while the settlements that extend with the Euphrates River Valley and its floodplain took the divergent (regular) pattern by virtue of the extension of human phenomena in a linear manner. Sedimentary plain It has a clustered (convergent) pattern. Conclusion: The study concluded that there is a disparity in the distribution of the population of urban settlements in Anbar Governorate, as the largest population size of the stable center of Fallujah district reached (264219) people, while the stable of Al-Waleed came with the lowest population size of (315) people, as a result of the variation in natural and human conditions and their control of each stable. Recommendations: The need to classify urban settlements in the study area quantitatively and qualitatively based on specific criteria that are compatible with the planning processes for human settlement, in order to increase the efficiency of the sites that will be determined for urban stability centers, which enables them to perform their tasks and productive and service functions, and to motivate the relevant authorities to use geographic information systems (GIS) in studying and analyzing spatial distribution and discovering the needs of its residents to show us spatial distribution patterns, in the light of which these centers can be developed in line with the goals of the development of the place. | ||
