According to our survey, most areas are industries surrounded by residential estates. The business center is on the junction of Selhakit 1 Rd. and Pechtkasem Rd. The results from PSA suggest three suitable areas for urban development. First, the high potential areas are along Setakit 1 Rd., Petehkasem Rd. and Buddhamontol 4 Rd. Second, the medium potential area are along Buddhamontol 5 Rd., Sukaphiban 2Rd. and Wirunrat Rd. Third, the low potential areas are the distant areas from road such as at the east of Oamnoi Municipality. Considering physical, economical, social and population factors along with government policy and private investment trends, future land uses in Oamnoi Municipality are suggested. The areas should be used for industries and storage, specialize industries, residential and commercial areas. Many monetary and governing measurements should be implemented to ensure the success of this proposal.
