This research was carried out to evaluate the suitability of the land for urban development activitiesrnusing remote sensing and GIS applications with the integration of MCDA approach. Evaluation ofrnurban land in terms of suitability classes based on the method described in FAO guide line for landrnevaluation the parameters used for the evaluation of land suitability for urban development activitiesrnwere slope, soil type, rivers and streams, soil depth, geology, road network, ground water prospectrn.This research aimed at assessing urban land suitability modeling of the study area throughrnGeographic Information System and remote Sensing based urban land suitability modeling techniques,rnby preparing maps that enhance proper urban land use for sustainable urban land developmentrnand management. Spatial Data was processed and generated from these specified parameters torngenerate urban land suitability model map at parcel level finally. IDRISI was applied to generaternweight for each parameter according to their level of importance. By the help of ArcGIS weight wasrngiven for each parameter and finally With spatial analytic capability of Geographic information systemrnweighted overlay method was used to generate the final urban land suitability model map from whichrnurban land suitability maps were developed. Accordingly the final result of this research shows 72.09%rnof the total area was suitable for urban development activities and 29.33% was unsuitable forrnurban development activities the current urban development activities of the study area were inrnthe area which was identified as suitable area. Finally this research recommends that areasrnidentified us unsuitable area needs additional improvements after urban development activitiesrnmade.
