TOPSIS Method was used using Matlab and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for the purpose of analyzing factors and restricting them to the main factors and knowing which factor is the most influential.

It was concluded that the geographic information systems (GIS) program has a great potential in the field of locating crowded schools through students and population preparation in order to determine the need to de-inflation in them as well as to prepare a strong geographical database, containing natural and human variables affecting the educational reality as well as the ability diagnosis of defects according to statistical methods such as the near neighborand standard distance, and building educational databases aimed at ease of exchange and analysis of information. Schools were classified according to the school's degree (primary, intermediate, secondary and High secondary) according to the importance of the TOPSIS method (of the utmost importance, the most important, the important and the least important) The percentages of schools with overcrowded were respectively obtained as follows (42, 11, 3, 7) from the total number of schools in the Karbala Governorate center.
