The study area suffers from a severe shortage of water resources, which requires searching for new sources to fill the current deficit and reveal the promising regions for water harvesting and the appropriate methods to invest it for development purposes. This study shows the spatial distribution of water harvesting areas in the shrine area, The southern region in Jordan, using the spatial adequacy model within the geographic information systems environment and determining the most appropriate sites for water harvesting projects. Built the study model according to criteria and requirements, which were divided into two main groups: the criteria of the first group were divided into four degrees in terms of relevance, namely; High fit, appropriate, a moderate fit, and unsuitable, and the second group criteria were classified into appropriate, unsuitable. A geographical database has been created, including hydrological, climatic, topographic, geological, and soil data. The study reached the production of maps of spatial suitability for water harvesting sites, where proposed sixteen suitable sites for establishing small dams and one hundred and sixty-four suitable sites for establishing small digs. Rainwater and achieve an economic return that benefits them.
