“…Developed by Thomas SAATY in 1980, AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) is a simple and effective decision support method for dealing with complex problems with multiple attributes [10]. It is a flexible and simple technique, frequently used by researchers and practitioners to compare several objectives or alternatives [12]. It makes it possible to establish ranking relationships between alternatives through pairwise comparisons [10].…”

Historical monuments in Morocco represent a heritage, of great value in terms of its history, culture, civilization and identity. This heritage is a non-renewable resource considered as one of the essential aspects of modern communities and contributes to the sustainable development of the country. Unfortunately, these monuments are subject to pathologies due to several factors that threaten its sustainability. The choice of the type of intervention thus becomes a strategic decision that has a crucial impact on the historic monument. Indeed, it requires a global approach because it involves simultaneously a multitude of stakeholders and a multitude of criteria (technical, environmental, social, political or administrative, human etc …). Several models in the literature have focused on the multi-criteria decision support process. This work proposes a decision support method based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, in order to apply it to a choice of an intervention strategy on historic monuments. Then, this approach is applied to the case of the enclosure of the old medina of Salé.

“…Combined GIS and Fuzzy AHP is applied in suitability analysis for landfill site selection in Kolkata, India [49], for solid waste disposal site location in Iranshahr County in Iran [50]. Also highly applied are combined methods of GIS, AHP or Fuzzy AHP and remote sensing techniques [51,52] and combined GIS, AHP and TOPSIS for landfill site selection [53,54].…”

World production growth affected a rise in the amount of waste generated. In these circumstances proper waste management becomes a highly important issue. The protection of the environment from degradation requires a multi-dimensional approach to this problem. Integration of multicriteria decision making with the geographic information systems provides a useful methodology and a helpful instrument in waste management, particularly in the assessment of environmental suitability for the location of municipal solid waste disposal sites. Multidimensional approach is realized through analytic hierarchy process (AHP) in the determination of sub-criteria and criteria values and final site selection. Geographic information systems (GIS) provide spatial data input and give an insight into final result of the decision-making process. Integrated methodology is applied in suitability analysis of the City of East Sarajevo for the location of municipal solid waste disposal site (MSWDS). Ten criteria were evaluated through pair-wise comparison matrices and suitability map was obtained using weighted linear combination algorithm in GIS. Extracting high suitability area, the largest locations were evaluated through AHP according to ten criteria and final site selection was made. The results indicate high applicability of integrated multi-criteria analysis and GIS

Depending on the technical, institutional, economic and social limits of developing countries, as well as the population density in cities, nowadays, the volume of urban waste has increased considerably, and the management of this waste contributes to climate change, and air pollution, it directly affects many ecosystems and many species. Waste management faces serious problems such as irregular collection, informal sweeping activities, uncontrolled dumping and proliferation of illegal dumping. The latter constitute a real and permanent threat to the quality of life, this exponential increase in the urban population and the resulting accelerated phenomenon of urbanization have highlighted the need to develop sustainable and efficient waste management systems. Stakeholders are therefore required to consider alternative and available means of disposal, in particular by minimizing the damage caused to the ecosystem and to the human population, among these means of disposal, controlled landfills, considered as the last option in the waste hierarchy. In this study, attempts were made to locate a new landfill in Oum Azza using the AHP multi-criteria decision-making method to assess the different criteria considered during the prospecting and combining them with the geographic information system to acquire the results in the form of maps displayed on the optimal sites to house a new controlled landfill and minimize its terrible impact on the environment.
