As society progresses and becomes more complicated, improvements and demanded in the quality of life according to various interest groups. In relation to environment concerns, waste landfill sites in particular have been of concern. Conflicts involving treatment of such sites and decision making policies have been a point of contention between local governments, residents, and concerned organizations. To resolve these conflicts, this study developed the Multi-Criteria Spatial Decision Support System (MC-SDSS). The results of the case study revealed several conclusions; first, the approach used in this study can help to yield a better consensus for deciding upon waste landfill sites; next, by conducing sensitivity analysis, technical errors which can occur during the decision making process can be minimized; and finally, resistance from specific opposition groups can be effectively dealt with by using MC-SDSS.

This study aimed to develop an effective decision support system for the locational decision of urban parks through integrating decision analysis techniques with spatial analysis functions of GIS, and by doing so, to improve the efficiency and quality of the decision-making process. The system provides an efficient management process by integrating analysis, alternative generation and evaluation procedures into a coherent system environment. Evaluation criteria used in the system includes Equity, Efficiency, Service population, Land cost, Park ratio buildings, and Connectivity of greenery. The system also improves the efficiency and rationality of the decision-making process by incorporating various decision analysis techniques such as MAUT, AHP, and ELECTRE into a decision-making process. The analysis and decision support methods used in the system can be utilized for the locational decisions of other urban public facilities, and the system can also be expanded to a comprehensive park management system by incorporating general management functions for urban parks.

Renewable energy is not a new terminology. One of the fastest growing renewable energies is solar energy. The implementation of solar energy provides several advantages including the reduction of some of the environmental risks of fossil fuel consumption. This research elaborated the importance of the adaption of solar energy by developing a spatial decision support system (SDSS), while the Residential Solar Energy Adoption (RSEA) is an instantiation artifact in the form of an SDSS. As a GIS web-based application, RSEA allows stakeholders (e.g., utility companies, policymakers, service providers homeowners, and researchers) to navigate through locations on a map interactively. The maps highlight locations with high and low solar energy adoption potential that enables decision-makers (e.g., policymakers, solar firms, utility companies, and nonprofit organizations) to make decisions. A combined qualitative and quantitative methodological approach was used to evaluate the application's usability and user experience, and results affirmed the ability of the factors of utility, usefulness, and a positive user experience of the residential solar energy adoption of spatial decision support system (RSEA-SDSS). RSEA-SDSS in improving the decision-making process for potential various stakeholders, in utility, solar installations, policy making, and non-profit renewable energy domains.

The major reason that spatial data warehousing has attracted a great deal of attention in business GIS in recent years is due to the wide availability of huge amount of spatial data and the imminent need for fuming such data into useful geographic information. Therefore, this research has been focused on designing and implementing the pilot tested system for spatial decision making. The purpose of the system is to predict targeted marketing area by discriminating the customers by using both transaction quantity and the number of customer using credit card in department store. Moreover, the pilot tested system of this research provides OLAP tools for interactive analysis of multidimensional data of geographically various granularities, which facilitate effective spatial data mining. focused on the analysis methodology, the case study is aiming to use GIS and clustering for knowledge discovery. Especially, the importance of this study is in the use of snowflake schema model capabilities for GIS framework.

A controller who is responsible for visiter's safety makes a decision about measures for visiter safety in human-based decision making process. Many potential accidents that are caused by human error lurk in results of the process. The accidents can be decreased by changing the decision making process from human-based into technology-based. Technology-based decision making process can catch a controller's attention through data filtering, alarm filtering, and so on. So, the controller can get information on occurrence of an unforeseen accident pro-actively. The objective of this study is to suggest a concept of 3D spatial information control system for visitor flow control in multi complex building using technology-based decision making process. This study shows utilization of the system and contribution.

This study developed a ten-step procedure of integrated watershed management (IWM) for sustainability to rehabilitate the distorted hydrologic cycle and identified spatial hazard ranking(step 2). Spatial hazard indices, Potential flood damage (PFD), potential streamflow depletion (PSD), potential water quality deterioration (PWQD), and watershed evaluation index (WEI) were developed using multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques and sustainability evaluation concept(pressure-state-response model). The used MCDM techniques are composite programming, compromise programing, Regime method, and EVAMIX approach which are classified by data availability and objectives (prefeasibility and feasibility).

Data and information necessary for solving the spatial decision making problems are imperfect or inaccurate and most are described by natural language. In order to process these arts of information by the computer, the obscure linguistic value need to be described quantitatively to let and computer understand natural language used by humans. For this , the fuzzy set theory and the fuzzy logic are used representative methodology. So this paper describes the construction of the language model by the natural language that user easily can understand and the logical concepts and construction process for building the fuzzy inference mechanism. It makes possible to solve the space related decision making problems intellectually through structuring and inference used by the computer, in case of the evaluation concern or decision making problems are described inaccurate, based on the inaccurate or indistinct data and information.

Currently, selecting comparative standard land parcels for evaluating individual public land price is done by cadastral officers manually. Due to the amount of land parcels to be evaluated in a short period of time and the subjective methodology adopted, the results are not satisfactory and affect the final individual public land price evaluation. This study aims to develop, implement, and test a new automatic and objective methodology for selecting comparative standard land parcels using spatial multi criteria decision making rules. We conclude that spatial multiattribute decision making rules perform very well in this kind of problem and especially an AHP based method is highly appropriate for this purpose.
