Land quality index assessment for agricultural purpose using multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA)
Geocarto International, 2015 In this study, an attempt has been made to apply Remote Sensing (RS) and geographic information system (GIS) to determine land quality for agriculture purpose using analytic hierarchy process technique. In this study, various thematic layers were used like organic matter content, soil texture, soil depth, soil pH, soil P, soil K, geomorphology, run-off

Multi-Criteria Decision Model based on AHP and Linguistic Information
Journal of Computer Science and Technology, 2014 Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) is a usual activity among organisations and decisions related to people’s activities. Due to the complexity of considering multiple criteria, to select an alternative is a non-trivial task. From operative levels to
