Sürdürülebilir Planlama Kapsamında Hastaneler İçin AHP VE CBS Tabanlı Çok Kriterli Yer Seçimi Yaklaşımı– Aliağa, İzmir

Abstract

Hospitals are one of the most important public amenities in cities. The location of hospitals is critical for residents' accessibility, as is the case with all other public amenities. However; most of the public amenities such as parks, and schools provide services at neighborhood scale, hospitals serve the entire city. Therefore, deciding where to locate a hospital is a complex issue that requires consideration of various criteria. The purpose of this study is to create a multicriteria-spatial decision support model for selecting the optimal hospital sites, taking into account accesibility, environmental, and topographic aspects. Consequently, a fuzzy multi-criteria-spatial decision support model was created for the Aliağa district of İzmir province, by combining analytic hierarchy process and geographic information system.
