The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the land-use and natural resources for future sustainable land planning using GIS. In this study, the Makhdoom</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; color: black; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">’</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; color: black; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">s systematic method was used to analyze the ecological and resources maps of the study area.
