Abstract :
Military and law enforcement operations, like other human activities, are affected by weather conditions. Any military operation without coordination with weather conditions will have harmful consequences. Therefore, the commanders of these forces need to know the climatic and environmental elements correctly. Numerous digital indicators for the study of physiology and bioclimatology have been proposed by scientists, which are also used in military climate studies today, and also the assessment of bioclimatic conditions as a suitable tool for the development of military activity and the identification of favorable areas. Comfort is very important for the development of military activity in relation to the climate. Recognizing the potential of bioclimatic comfort in different geographical areas, can identify critical points to guide development activities to low-risk areas, guarantee the added value of investments in the most appropriate way in different areas. In this research, using thermo-hygrometric index and also using ArcGIS software in interpolation, division of point data into zones and combination of maps, times and places suitable for the development of military activity in Khorasan province Razavi has been identified during the statistical period of 20 years (2019-2019). The results of this article show that the months of May, June and September in this province have the best favorable conditions for the development of military activity, and the winter months are the worst months for the military climate.
