In order to combine both suitability and limitation for the interpretation of the five selected attributes, 1 = good slight, 2 =
moderate for the two classes and 3= poor = severe.

| 23- Interpretation of the Attributes' Engineering Properties
1 fills :
| The attributes (LRS, RF, SG, SE & TS) engineering properties were interpreted mil using tables 1 and 2 to come up with the
2 fina] current land evaluations for each of the mapping units of the five attributes selected for the road allocation. An ‘example of these
current land evaluations i is as in table 3. :
The outcome of the interpretation of the engineering properties of the attributes are the production of five suitability tables. An
example of suitability rating tables is given in table 4. The suitability tables were put into the database, and by using the ILWIS - GIS -
mapping facilities, five suitability maps, one per attribute considered as relevant for road allocation were produced.
