Title	Application of GIS for agro-climatological characterisation of northern Algeria to define durum wheat production areas

Abstract	A Geographical Information System on natural resources for northern Algeria was developed in order to: (i) characterize the area of interest according to agro-climatic criteria and define potentially suitable areas for durum wheat cultivation; (ii) provide research institutions and decision makers with a new tool for sustainable management of natural resources. Several information layers concerning topography, climate, landform, soil and land use/land cover were set up, using existing cartographic and tabular information. Selection of areas suitable for durum wheat cropping was conducted through multiple querying and data segmentation. The outputs generated, both in tabular and map format, have been evaluated as an useful tool for research institutions and decision makers for sustainable agricultural and rural development
