Potential site selection in ecotourism planning using spatial decision support tool

A Decision Support System for Parking Site Selection in Urban Environment, case study:Tehran city

Nowadays almost all big cities are confronting heavy traffic and suffering from lack of parking lots which leads in traffic jam. According to the significant role of vertical parking in reducing the traffic load and smoothing the traffic current; this study was carried out with the purpose of presenting a decision support system for vertical parking site selection for mechanical and constructiv...

Site Layout Planning using Nonstructural Fuzzy Decision Support System

Site layout planning can affect productivity and is crucial to project success. However, as construction is heterogeneous in the nature of its organizations, project designs, time constraints, environmental effects, etc., site layout planning for each project becomes unique. Affected by many uncertainties ~variables! and variations, site layout planning is a typical multiobjective problem. To f...

Collaborative Decision Support for Spatial Planning Applications

For complex spatial decision problems a combination of software tools for group decision support, individual decision support and geographic analysis is required. The paper describes a respective approach and the integration of tools that were originally developed independently in two teams of Fraunhofer AIS. The first software system, Zeno, is a Java application for the World Wide Web designed...

A Spatial Decision Support System for Planning

Organizations and individuals are calling for the universal availability of broadband as a national imperative by 2010. Although the United States has the requisite cross-continental fiber-optic backbone infrastructure in place, only 2% to 5% of that nationwide network is used today. This is because of the prohibitive cost necessary to extend the backbone to many small businesses and homes, eve...

A decision model for spatial site selection by criminals: a foundation for law enforcement decision support

Yifei Xue Donald E. Brown [email protected] [email protected] Department of Systems and Information Engineering University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA 22904, USA. Abstract: Crime analysis uses past crime data to predict future crime locations and times. Typically this analysis relies on hot spots models that show clusters of criminal events based on past locations of these events. It does...
