Committee discussed a master’s thesis that reached the conclusion that the best site for the sanitary landfill in the city of Kirkuk using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing techniques. The discussion took place at the Knowledge Hall at the Technical College of Engineering in Baghdad. The thesis presented by the student Basem Tha’er Mutaib in surveying engineering aimed to determine the best location for the sanitary landfill in the study area, using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing techniques, through the use of Sentinel2 satellite imagery, geological maps and digital elevation models (DEM).
The thesis discussed the proximity criteria that included residential settlements, wells, rivers, hospitals, schools, oil pipelines, airports and parks. In addition to discussing the engineering criteria represented by soil type, roads, slopes, railways, valleys and geology. The thesis also discussed environmental criteria including groundwater and land use, while the social and economic criteria represented by cost and public acceptance were discussed. The thesis concluded that the integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) with the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methodology manages the process of selecting the landfill site.
