Land suitability for waste disposal in metropolitan areas
Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2014Site selection for waste disposal is a complex task that should meet the requirements of communities and stakeholders. In this article, three decision support methods (Boolean logic, index overlay and fuzzy gamma) are used to perform land suitability analysis for landfill siting.

Land Form Suitability for Control Survey Monumentation
The Canadian Surveyor, 1970Ideally, a control survey monument should be established so as to remain in its original location. Experience has shown, however, that, if improperly placed, it will move with respect to the underlying ground mass and that the number of types of movement are primarily dependent on the land form.

Fuzzy Screening for Land Suitability Analysis
Geographical and Environmental Modelling, 2002Screening procedures are typically operationalized in GIS by means of Boolean operations using conjunctive or disjunctive decision rules. There are several conceptual and technical problems with the conventional screening methods. The methods require fairly detailed a priori information about the cut-off values, aspiration (target) levels, or ...

Shifting from land-use capability to land-use suitability
The LUS classification system will be based on concatenation of three categories: land-use potential, contribution to catchment contaminant delivery, and pressure in receiving environments (Fig. 1). The rationale for this approach is that every unique pair of a land parcel and a receiving environment can be represented by a categorical description of ...Larned, Scott +10 more
