Abstract
According to the changed policy, the city of "Chiang Khong" is a logistics city. The transformation of border towns to be more urbanized in Northern Thailand in 2012, affected the environment, pollution, and population health. The research aimed to study the relationship between health risk and land use change, industry area, urban population, and pollution with dependent variables, namely the rate of patients from respiratory disease and mortality rate. The study selected Moran’s I to analyze the industry build-up density pattern in Chiang Khong and Generalized Additive Models to analyze the non-linear relationship between dependents and independent factors. The results showed that Concentration rates of industrial build-up areas were clustered, and the results of the correlation analysis revealed that the amount of Nitrogen Dioxide (No2) and the percentage of urban change were discovered as a non-linear association. total mortality and Industrial Area, PM2.5, and Nitrogen Dioxide revealed non-linear solid associations with the number of respiration cases. Nitrogen Dioxide has 93.30% of the deviance explanation, Pm 2.5 has 87.6 and Industrial Area has 81% of the deviance explanation. Therefore, Increases in the rate of urbanization and development of land area have also been linked to increases in respiration cases. no longer the case because China has pushed through trade routes transportation by land. After all, the policy concentrates on international commodities transit between Thailand, Lao PDR, and China, known as the North-South Corridor (NSEC) projects were formed to connect trade between the three countries via the route "R3A" [2].
