Identifying suitable sites for urban, industrial, and tourist development is important, especially in areas with increasing population limited land availability. Kharga Oasis, Egypt, stands out as a promising area such development, which can help reduce overcrowding the Nile Valley Delta. However, soil various environmental factors affect suitability of civil engineering projects. This study used Geographic Information Systems (GISs) multi-criteria decision-making approach to assess Oasis construction activities. Geotechnical parameters were obtained from seismic velocity data, including Poisson’s ratio, stress concentration index, material N-value, foundation-bearing capacity. A comprehensive analysis situ laboratory-based geological geotechnical data 24 boreholes examined plasticity, water content, unconfined compressive strength, consolidation parameters. By integrating geotechnical, geomorphological, geological, environmental, field detailed site map was created using analytic hierarchy process develop weighted GIS model that accounts numerous elements influencing project design construction. The results highlight within area, high very classes covering 56.87% land, moderate representing 27.61%, unsuitable 15.53%.
