A web-based participatory GIS (PGIS) for offshore wind farm suitability within Lake Erie, Ohio

Abstract: Short title for the running head: PGIS for Offshore Wind Farm Suitability AbstractThis study presents the design and implementation of a web-based Participatory Geographic Information System (PGIS) framework intended for offshore wind suitability analysis. The PGIS prototype presented here integrates GIS and decision-making tools that are intended to involve different stakeholders and the public for solving complex planning problems and building consensus. Public involvement from the early planning stage of pr… Show more

“…Concerning the studies that already provide mechanisms that allow involved stakeholders to participate in P/PGIS during the decision-making process through a Collective Spatial Analysis based on consensus, one can mention those proposed by Mekonnen and Gorsevski [3] and Tsai et al [2], which represent the most significant achievements in this regard. However, it should be considered that, in the first case, the focus was based on locations dependent on the previous selection of characteristics and places to evaluate, so a potential selection outside those alternatives was not considered, which could be seen as a restriction to participants.…”

“…From the 39 reviewed cases, and just as authors Brown & Fagerholm [9] state, there is little empirical evidence about the use of data collected through P/PGIS to support decision-making in planning (6 cases), and from these only in one of them was the data collection built up and local experience taken into account during the decision-making process, albeit in a hypothetical way [3].…”

“…Yahyai et al [17] applied a hybrid Analytical Hierarchy Process and Ordered Weigh Averaging ( AHP-OWA) for Oman and the lands classified the data based on GIS . Mekonnen and Gorsevski [18] demonstrated a web-based Participatory Geographic Information System (PGIS) to investigate the suitability of offshore wind farm for Lake Erie in Ohio. Aydin et al [19] generated a decision support system and fuzzy objectives by using GIS for Usak, Aydin, Denizli, Mugla, and Burdur provinces in western Turkey.…”
