Abstract
Abstract. The purpose of research were: (1) designing digital data base management system for housing land suitability evaluation, (2) creating geographic information system based logic scoring of preference method for housing land suitability evaluation, (3) producing the housing zone of land suitability evaluation. Karawang district was research location. The research was conducted on January 2019 to July 2019. The research is using descriptive method. The research population is physical, social-economic and environmental conditions. The sampling technique is purposive. Research instruments are measurement and mapping tools, questionnaires, observations, computer hardware and software. Primary data taken by physical, chemical and biological environment and social-economic. Secondary data taken are maps of soil texture, soil drainage, soil type, erosion, slope, effective depth of soil and flooding. Spatial analysis is used to superimpose layers, using GIS software. Thematic map which was producing the housing zone of land suitability evaluation from GIS software, satellite imagery from internet could be more accurate and effective than conventional and analog method.
