In this paper, with using of GIS, evaluation of Rasht solid waste landfill by local screening approach was studied. In this method the main criteria are physical, economical, conditions, and land use. These criteria contains 14 factors which can be used into the over layer technique to determine some appropriate conditions in a vast region. Results showed that Rasht solid waste landfill has very weak value in local scale.
