Comparing the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and fuzzy logic for zoning the risk of gully erosion in the three regions of the Ardebil province

Gully erosion is the most advanced water erosion in watersheds that produce large volumes of sediment can cause serious damage. In order to manage and cope with this type of erosion, to identify areas of high risk of gully erosion in the watershed is very important. For this purpose gully erosion hazard zonation maps by combining information layers of different factors affecting the formation o...

Determining the Potential of Rain Water Harvesting Based on Geomorphological Factors and Analytic Hierarchy Process (Kalat Watershed, Khorasan Razavi Province)

In this research, a method is proposed to identify and determine rainwater harvesting potential in a watershed based on geomorphological factors through integrating Geographical Information System (GIS) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). For this purpose, land use, land cover, topography, geology, soil, vegetation, and soil permeability factors were considered the as main geomorphological ...

Groundwater potentiality through Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) using remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS)

Nowadays the use of remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) is one of the most powerful cost effective tools to identify and discover the available groundwater resources. In this paper, Lithological Units, Lineaments, Slope, Topography, Drainage density, Vegetation and Isohyets lines have been achieved by stations and through remote sensing and GIS techniques. All layers of diffe...
