Abstract

Currently the industry is continuing to grow,the development of eco-industrial town is necessary to sustainably and beneficially coexist among industries and nearby communities.This research aims to provide a framework to identify suitable areas for the development of ecoindustrial Town using Geographic Information Systems (GIS)with seven decision criteria. These criteria includingindustrial density, degree of industrial cluster, accessing to green and recreation area, areas with degree of complaints, accessing to main roads, number of factory certified by environmental standards, and areas with natural disastersrisk are ranked byrating scale. Subsequently, data obtained from targeted industrial area are analyzed usingageographic information software. It was found that a selected industrial area in Samutprakarn province can be categorized and prioritized to foursub-areas.The most suitable area accounted for ​​2,063Rai. This area should be developed first to attain ecoindustrial town standard.
