The selecting of a site for landfill is considered as a difficult process because many criteria should be involved. The main aim of establishing a landfill is to protect the human and environment. Al-Qasim district is considered as the study area in this work. It is one of the main districts in Babylon Governorate, Iraq. There is no systematic site as landfill that fulfil the environmental and scientific criteria in this area. Therefore, the most important fifteen criteria that suited the environmental requirements were selected in the current study. These criteria are: groundwater depth, urban centers, rivers, villages, soil types, elevation, roads agricultural land use, slope, land use, archaeological sites, power lines, gas pipelines, oil pipelines and railways. Two methods of multi criteria decision making AHP (analytical hierarchy process) and SRS (straight rank sum) were applied to obtain the weights of criteria in dissimilar styles. The raster maps of the selected criteria were prepared and analyzed within the GIS software. Then, the change detection method was implemented to compare the two output raster maps resulted from AHP and SRS methods. Two appropriate candidate sites for landfill were selected to accommodate the cumulative solid waste until the year 2030 in Qasim district. The areas of these sites were 2.766 km 2 and 2.055 km 2 respectively.

Public transportation planning is one of the most important parts of transportation planning and it provides sustainable development for cities. According to only demands of citizen's and decisions of city managers obstruct for public transportation planning also taking policy in the long time period. Citizen's demands and city manager's decisions important factors in transportation planning but the other important factors; city's and citizen's characteristic features. Relational structure to be determining between spatial and network analysis with these features, according to these situation necessary making transtportation policies. The purposes of this paper are to determinate of transportation networks base on the optimal public transportation polices using spatial and network analysis methods of an urbanized city: Konya, Turkey.
