AbstractFulfilling present needs while reducing the impact of human activity is a challenge requiring new ideas. As there is a shortage of suitable locations, urban resource limitations and limited use of information technology, it is seen aim balance between request and services in the financial sector. Urban land use faces with matters such as unsuitable site selection and imbalanced distribution of places which makes problems in the way of sustainable urban development. This research focuses on environmental dimension of sustainable urban development and is going to do environmental suitability analysis of urban and use by using AHP and GIS. Suitability analysis is a process of systematically identifying or rating potential locations with respect to a particular use. A number of locations for land use are founded and some factors such as access range, slope, and compatibility are evaluated, then Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is applied to give weight to each indicator and by the use of analytical functions of GIS for overlaying the indicators, it will be decided that which location is environmentally suitable for land use.
