Abstract
The tagged study (modeling soil moisture maps in Salah al-Din governorate) focused on
Geographical factors affecting the degree of soil moisture in Salah al-Din governorate, and then work on
Creating a database for this phenomenon through space visuals after processing and classifying it with the use of special algorithms for deriving humidity from the most important of which is the drought index (SPI) soil moisture index SMI) ) then the study proceeded to the use of classical and modern cartographic models used to represent this phenomenon, the most important of which are spatial color gamut, raster color gamut, pictographic symbols, flowline representation, and representation in the third dimension) and all this work passed from 2012-2022, to clarify the differences that this phenomenon Saladin.
The importance of the study lies in modeling this phenomenon, choosing the appropriate model from among them depending on cognitive and design criteria. And also in the use of modern technologies represented by geographic information systems (GIS), arc map program and space visuals to determine the locations of the spread of soil moisture in the study area.
The study used the technical approach mainly because it relies on the use of Geographic Information Systems Software, moisture detection.
