Spatial model of industrial area suitability using spatial multi criteria evaluation: A case study in Kendari City

Abstract

Designing an industrial location must be based on consideration of factors that will influence it such as natural, environmental and ecological conditions. One of the spatial-based location determination methods is Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation (SMCE). This study aims to determine suitable industrial areas and compare industrial locations that have been determined based on the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) for 2010-2030 in Kendari City. Industrial areas must be flood-free, located in a relatively flat area, far from settlements, have good access and must not interfere with the river’s natural function. Therefore, the aspects of access, hydrology, physiography and convenience were all taken into account in this study. The area in Scenario A was retested with Scenario B and Scenario C to get a variety of industrial areas with different perspectives. Kendari City’s appropriate industrial area is 2.462.36 ha and is located in Puuwatu Sub-District, which is directly connected to Mandonga Sub-District (scenario 2.C). The RTRW map with the industrial model of the area shows the mismatch of the proposed industrial area placement. The results of this industrial area can be used as an alternative for decision-makers.

Optimal industrial localization by using geographic information systems in the Nador province (northeast of Morocco)

“…[17,18], This study focuses on the use of GIS and MCDM technologies to determine the suitability of the site for MPE industries in Jaipur, in India, while emphasizing the importance of site planning for economic and environmental efficiency [19,20]. The Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to assess the suitability of land for different types of plant in terms of environmental factors, which has led to specific classifications of suitability [21,22].…”
