Selection of suitable sites for wind power plants is one of the most important decision on wind resources development. Site selection for the establishment of large wind power plants requires spatial evaluation taking technical, economic, and environmental considerations into account. This study has applied a combination of PROMETHEE and Fuzzy AHP methods in a geographical information system en...

â  industrial site selection is a complicated decision and is related to various factors, so it is kind of multi-criteria decision analysis which is used for prioritizing different factors and selecting the best alternative among possible alternatives. in fact by scientific site selection, it is possible to minimize negative impacts of industrial construction and going towards sustainable devel...

the success of artificial recharge schemes requires the identification of suitable site. the use of fuzzy set theory in site selection projects allows the decision-makers to incorporate unquantifiable information into decision model. in this paper, site selection of artificial groundwater recharges using an integrated method of fuzzy topsis and ahp has been done in raster environment of gis. th...

this study recommends a gis-based (geographic information systems) and multi-criteria evaluation for site selection of gas power plant in natanz city of iran. the multi-criteria decision framework integrates legal requirements and physical constraints related to environmental and economic concerns. it also builds a hierarchy model for gas power plant suitability. the methodologies used for site...

Different industrial decision makers and managers in our country, try to select and organize locations for aggregating industrial units, estates and areas with respect to land use planning visions and industrial development strategies. In this regard, considering large quantity of the input data and diverse criteria affecting this application, it is complicated and difficult to optimally make d...

Establishing biological reserves in key habitats is one method of preventing loss of biodiversity. We analyze a dynamic reserve site selection model in which a conservation planner receives a budget each period to purchase sites of heterogeneous cost and ecological value in order to maximize species conserved. Sites chosen as reserved are conserved, while sites left outside the reserve system a...
