Vulnerability Assessmemt
An approach in identifying and determing the degree to which a system is susceptible to or unable to cope with adverse effects of natural hazards such as soil erosion, flooding, landslides, pollution, forest/grass fires, etc. or man-made (anthropogenic) hazards

Land Capability Assessment
Land capability assessment involves the
subdivision of a tract of land into capability
classes each consisting of biophysically
homogenous areas with distinct ability to
accommodate set of uses (forest
protection, forest production, agroforestry,
agriculture, residential, mining,
commercial and industrial) on sustainable
basis

Land Capability Assessment
Land use suitability analysis
involves the
matching of the site characteristics with
the site requirements of the proposed land
uses.

2nd Step: Identification of Issues, Problems, Constraints, and Opportunities
Consider the existing environment conditions in identifying matters that could hinder development or those that could facilitate attainment of desired objectives.
