Geodiversity Assessment with Crowdsourced Data and Spatial Multicriteria Analysis [PDF]
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020 This paper presents an approach to geodiversity assessment based on spatial multicriteria analysis. Instead of relying solely on weighted linear combination (WLC) for aggregating factor ratings and weights to compute a synthetic measure of geodiversity ...
