Abstract: It becomes necessary to develop an urban climate diagnostic tool, in order to improve the urban planning approaches, as well as the conception of new projects at the micro-scales.The development of this tool requires an urban understanding of each block.This study aims to classify the El Harrachblocks, by applying the "Local Climate Zones" approach, and using the Geographic Information System (GIS) methods.Thus, within the framework of this study, we will test the adaptability of this approach on El Harrach.The results show that this approach seems to be in agreement with our aims; while taking into account certain particular conditions.It will also allow us to provide the precise details on the urban knowledge of each block, which could beused as a basis for strategic studies, that help the actors of the agglomeration in the implementation, the monitoring and the evaluation of environmental and energy policies.
