Abstract
Because of the tremendous rate at which land is being converted to urban uses in the metropolitan fringe areas of the United States, and because there is not an inexhaustable supply of this land, land-use plans must be formulated to provide for the optimum utilization of available land resources. A thorough and competent analysis of the physical characteristics of the land in the planning area must be a part of the preparation of land-use plans for every metropolitan fringe area if this goal is to be attained. The purpose of this article is to present methods and recommendations for the evaluation of the physical characteristics of land that will contribute toward the development of effective master plans for land use.
