Geographic Information System (GIS) modeling approach to determine the fastest delivery routes

Abstract: This study involves the adoption of the Geographic Information System (GIS) modeling approach to determine the quickest routes for fresh vegetable delivery. During transport, fresh vegetables mainly deteriorate on account of temperature and delivery time. Nonetheless, little attention has been directed to transportation issues in most areas within Kuala Lumpur. In addition, perishable food normally has a short shelf life, thus timely delivery significantly affects delivery costs. Therefore, selecting efficient… Show more

“…Kallel et al used the ArcGIS tool for the optimization of solid waste collection and transport in Sfax City, Tunisia [26]. Abousaeidi et al adopted ArcGIS to determine the quickest routes for fresh vegetable delivery [27]. Alazab et al modified the Dijkstra's algorithm, using the ArcGIS tool to acquire real-time traffic information, and developed an optimal transportation routing approach [28].…”

“…In terms of distance to market and distance to the road, a high score was given to land close to the road or close to the market. Vegetables are perishable and lose quality and appearance shortly after harvest (Sharma et al, 2014), so the aspects of ease of transportation become very important (Abousaeidi et al, 2015). The range of distance to the road and distance to the market used in this study are judged based on observations of field conditions.…”
