Advantages of formation non-agricultural land allocation projects based on GIS technologies

Use of Groupware-enabled Gis for Land Resource Allocation Issues

ABSTRACT This paper describes the Active Response GIS (AR/GIS) for resource planning and land­ allocation deliberation. AR/GIS is an integrated system which combines GIS and electronic meeting software. This combination provides the voting, information organization, and brainstorming of an electronic meeting system, and supports interaction with geographic data sets. The AR/GIS system can impro...

Environmental Conservation on Agricultural Working Land: Assessing Policy Alternatives Using a Spatially Heterogeneous Land Allocation Model

Scale-independent Land-use Allocation Modeling in Raster GIS

A common application of raster-based geographic information systems (GIS) is as an aid in multi-criteria, multi-objective land-use decision problems. However, as the cell resolution increases by reducing cell size, the number of rows and columns in the raster representation also increases. The size of raster representations of land-use problems is often a determining factor in the type of metho...

Using GIS-based continuous methods for assessing agricultural land-use potential in sloping areas

The dynamic nature of land qualities both in space and in time suggests that, whatever the stages of the development of an area, it is always crucial to assess land qualities in terms of their potential and suitability for specific kinds of land use on a sustainable basis. In this paper we demonstrate an integrated method of biophysical land-suitability assessment, which combines two basic land...

A GIS-integrated fuzzy rule-based inference system for land suitability evaluation in agricultural watersheds

Land suitability evaluation in water scarce agricultural watersheds consists of assessment of land potential for various crops as well as surface water potential to identify the scope for supplementary irrigation. A large amount of information related to the crop land suitability can be conveyed through linguistic terms. Capability of fuzzy sets in modeling involving uncertainty and vagueness i...
