Abstract
At present, the main goal of scientific studies that are being carried out for developmental purposes is to increase the living standards of society. In order to reach this goal, it is necessary to consider all aspects of developmental processes, which are composed of natural, social, cultural, political and economic components. This study suggests a model for making land use decisions. The model was constructed through analyzing the potential of natural and human resources in Çamlıhemşin district of the province of Rize. Based on observations made in the research area and on secondary data from various sources, a survey was conducted through questionnaires and analyzed by Geographical Information System. Future implementation of the suggested model would contribute to local development in the underdeveloped districts of Turkey
