Abstract

Water and soil are the most important natural resources, which have a major role in the establishment and survival of human civilization. For this matter, studying water and soil resources is significantly important. These resources have been damaged by human interference, which can be problematic for the continuation of human lives. The aim of this study is to investigate an appropriate location for creating a modified dam along canals in order to reduce erosion and sedimentation and their damaging effects. In this research, the intended layers were prepared in the ARC GIS software. In a tree model prepared in ILWIS, the geographical and economic factors and limitations were taken into consideration. The map of the factors and limitations was standardized. The weight of each layer was given through the Fuzzy Logic and Boolean method accordant with a, expert's opinion. At last, by integrating the layers of the final map in which the geographical priorities for building a stone-concrete dam along the canal are displayed. The results show that the SMCE method is best for a location.
