Sketch of Spatial Modeling of the Rural District of Dialakorodji
Ballo Lassana and Bassam F. Al Bassam

Abstract: The present study represents that our world is constantly changing and not all changes are for the better (Rolf de By). Dialakorodji is a rural district north east of Bamako, Mali. Bamako has experienced since 1970 a rapid growth. The lack of space in Bamako created a rush on the surrounding territory demarcated by fuzzy boundaries. This has created conflicts which only maps can resolve. From 1970-2003, many more people occupied Dialakorodji and thy built many and more homes and settlements. We have used vector data according MAPINFO software to help configure the geographic boundaries of Dialakorodji. Geographic Information System (GIS) must support decisions for the intelligent use of earth`s resources and to manage them. So we created through using vector some relationship allowing us to get a conventional map. Earth`s geography changes can have natural or a man made causes.
