Question

What other considerations besides geographic ones did the allies have to take into account when choosing a site for the invasion?

Answer 1

The allies had to take strategic considerations, which they learned after attempting an invasion at the coast of Normandy, France; day that came to be remembered as "D-Day". The allies understood they couldn't attempt another landing on a heavily defended German outpost, but they did know the Germans did not have the enough amount of troops to defend all of the coasts, so they had to deceive enemy into a proxy attack point while attacking somewhere else.
