| Some spatial planning or spatial problems like site selection, routing and land valuation etc. can be considered as a multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problems. GIS-based multi criteria analysis is used in a wide range of decision and management situations like Environment planning and ecology management, Urban and regional planning etc. The most widely used MCDM is Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). AHP involves some processes such as hierarchy design, hierarchy assessment, setting priorities, pairwise comparison matrices, the weight determination methods, and comparing the scale of preferences |
