| Abstract | ||
| This study was carried out for Land Evaluation purpose of Wheat cultivation using ModelBuilders within ArcGIS 9.x software. The Irrigated Salamiyat lands were evaluated according to the modified proposals contained in Sys et al(8). Soil properties mentioned in the report of soil survey for Salamiyat project in 1987 and the climate data for thirty years (1971-2000) were adopted in this study. The results indicated that the lands of the study area are classified in varying degrees of suitability ranging from Moderately Suitable (S2), Marginally Suitable (S3) and Non-Suitable (N) to cultivate Wheat. The main limited factors are salinity and physical soil characteristics, while the climate factor was not limited for the cultivation. The created geographical ArcGIS Models were effective and efficient for production Land evaluation maps for Wheat cultivation in irrigated areas. These models can be used directly by ArcGIS users. | ||
