Site investigation works is very essential in every construction design work. Soil type and shear strength are the important parameter to design foundation system of insfrastructure project. Site investigations are not only costly, but also time consuming. There many geotechnical engineers tend to reduce site investigation works to decrease the construction cost. Based on these problems, the study was developed on site investigation database for Pulau Indah, Klang, Malaysia using Geographical Information System (GIS). Research study applied the Thiessen polygon method to obtain existing some informations type of soil and shear strength on this site. The research result was the database and map information. These data can be used for civil engineers to obtain site informations of soil type and shear strength parameter for future construction work related to the area.
