The efficient selection of a perfect site for the development of an industrial site in spatial
planning should consider the land condition and environmental factors to minimize the impacts and
risks. This paper aimed to create a model to assess if an area that can be used for the development
of an industrial site meets multiple criteria. The new method in this research integrates the GIS
and AHP approaches into a web-based geographic information system application that is used to
easily support widespread assessment and mapping. The assessment of the development potential of
industrial areas in West Java Province showed that 77% of the land was appropriate for industrial
sites, whereas the other 33% was less suitable for use as an industrial site location. The assessment of
23 industrial site development location points in the Industrial Site Spatial Plan of West Java Province
showed that 14 locations were in the highly suitable category (P1) and 9 other locations were in the
suitable category (P2).
