چکیده:
In this research, the distribution of educational centers in Moallem Town, Kermanshah, was analyzed and evaluated using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), urban standards, and influential indicators. New locations were determined for primary, middle, and high schools, categorized by boys and girls. Spatial data were obtained from the 1:2000 scale map of the Kermanshah Province Housing and Urban Development Organization; then, using GIS software, the map of Moallem Town was digitized, and descriptive data were collected using documents, records, statistics, and field surveys to form a database within the GIS environment. Subsequently, layers were prepared for each of the factors influencing the location of educational centers, and each layer was weighted based on distance and time factors. Then, by combining and analyzing all layers together, the current locations of schools were evaluated, and finally, the most suitable locations for establishing schools were proposed. The results show that Moallem Town, Kermanshah, faces a shortage of educational space and requires new locations for school construction. To this end, using GIS capabilities, new locations were identified and introduced. This subject demonstrates that GIS is very effective and efficient for locating educational centers and other urban services; it can also play an important role in urban planning.

Abstract In this research, the distribution of educational centers in Moallem Town, Kermanshah, was analyzed and evaluated using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), urban standards, and influential indicators.
This article, while evaluating educational land use at the level of Moallem Town in Kermanshah, demonstrates new educational site selections using Geographic Information Systems within the study area.
It can be said that in terms of utilizing educational space, a total of four educational units with 11725 square meters of educational space (open and indoor space) existed at the town level in this level, which comparison based on standards and desirable per capita shows that this town faces a shortage of educational space.
5-3-Boys' middle school level: in the boys' middle school level in the year 1380 in the studied town, 1708 students are distributed in four educational units, which in terms of using educational space, meaning open and indoor space, the area of the four educational units is a total of 12425 square meters.
Thus, it can be said that a total of approximately 1168 square meters of educational space is required under existing conditions to compensate for this space shortage, which in this town, considering population growth and future constructions, at least one educational unit must be located and constructed at the high school level.
