| Figure 1 - Suitability Analysis Map |
In this suitability analysis, I evaluated potential development land using five key criteria: land cover, soils, slope, distance to streams, and distance to roads. Each dataset was converted or reclassified into a standardized 1–5 suitability scale, where higher values represent more favorable conditions for construction. After generating individual suitability rasters, I performed two weighted overlay analyses one using equal weights and another emphasizing slope as the dominant factor. The results reveal how weighting decisions influence the distribution of highly suitable land. A final map layout presents both scenarios side‑by‑side, illustrating the spatial impact of each weighting strategy and providing the developer with a clear visual foundation for decision‑making.
