Abstract

Modern programs are the most widely used in the fields of life, and the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) program is one of the important programs that have been used in many fields, including the environment, pollution and others. The drug phenomenon has spread in recent decades and the province of  Salah Al-Din  suffers from its spread.  Where the numbers in 2020 reached 168 and in  2022 the number reached 122, this indicates that the numbers are increasing. There are differences between the civil and military (GPS) program where the privileges of the military program are more accurate, allowing it to be easily linked with geographic information systems.The geographic information system works on a remote sensing mechanism through which targets are easil.
