During the pilot study, we identif ied few effective locating criteria and sub-criteria for rural health centers equipped with telehealth, the priorities was also determined in thatdescriptive study. Further, we prepared a special layer for each criterion on the site selection, and by integrating such layers based on specif ied rules and patterns, about the spatial analysis , (like distance and densityanalysis) were done. Forsuch methods, we used Arc Map, Arc Catalog and Arc toolbox environments of Arc GIS (version 9.3). Finally, a map was prepared that indicated the possibility of appropriateness forestablishing the centers in the study area. Considering a large number of areas, the research team selected the areaswhich were the appropriate location for build rural health centers which could be equipped withTelehealth. Abstract
