Abstract

The M'zab valley in Algeria, which is known for its historical value, has been faced with the urbanization process. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the characteristics of this urbanization process through the two works: a literature survey and GIS data analysis. First, from the literature survey, we show the features on the valley's geography and history, and then we compose a causal diagram to explain the sprawl problem. Secondly, on the GIS data analysis, we digitize land use data from 1968 to 1997 from aerial photomaps, and analyze the building-up process of the valley during this period.
