Abstract

Geographical witnessed since the middle of last century trend towards intensive fields applied, the numbers have increased geographers who are involved in the planning processes clearly during the past few years. The role of geographical applied in the development and planning may pull revetment development processes both frameworks which contain regions of planning, and detection specificity and uniqueness of each region diagram, or tightens the development processes best suited to the specificity and uniqueness of each geographic region.

From here, this study shows the role of science and geography in planning and regional development; since development has become Bochkalhma various planning and strategic choice is important for the well-being of people and communities, but no doubt that the science of geographic various branches is best able to achieve development through planning fruitful because of the comprehensiveness of this science.

And that geography is no longer just a description of the features it has become a complex cognitive system that combines the results of the natural sciences; therefore difficult to find development opportunities without success to have the role of geography because development is based on the natural and human variables which is the main content of the science of geography.

The study recommended that the geographical location and one of the team specializes in the planning, it would experience geography that insight this team with all the factors and considerations that interfere in the drafting of the background of the targeted plan, so we call we geographers ministers and officials from the planning and development processes to use Paljgravean mainly in the planning teams development and implementation of plans and follow-up target
