Land Suitability Classification for Persian Walnut Cultivation in Iran Using Geographic Information System (GIS)
The efficient use of water resources, soil, and climate parameters as the main pillars of plant sustainable production requires land suitability evaluation for each crop and area. This research was conducted to evaluate land suitability for walnut cultivation in Iran using geographic information system (GIS). For this purpose, the climate data obtained from 375 synoptic stations of Iran, the ge...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Bt Cotton Cultivation in Punjab , Pakistan Using the Agriculture Decision Support System ( ADSS )
Introduction Pakistan is the 4th top producer of cotton in the world (Table 1), yet in terms of yield it is at the distant 10th position. There are many possible reasons for low cotton yields in Pakistan—high prices of agricultural inputs (pesticides, fertilizers, etc.), higher intensity of insect and pest attacks, deficiency of water for irrigation, lack of advanced technologies and awareness,...
متن کاملIntegrated Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and GIS for Land Use Suitability Analysis
Analysis of land-use suitability requires consideration of variety of criteria. Application of GIS alone could not overcome the issue of inconsistency in expert opinion when trying to judge and assign relative importance to each of many criteria considered in a suitability analysis. To address this issue, the Analytical Hierarchy Process method is used in combination with the GIS tool. The pape...
متن کاملLand suitability assessment for urban green space using AHP and GIS: A case study of Ahvaz parks, Iran
Soil is a vital parameter for planting design in urban green spaces especially in adverse climate conditions. In this study, the utilization of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) in surveying land suitability for urban green space from measured criteria like suitability indices, including physical (i.e. clay, silt, sand, bulk density, penetration resistance), chemical (i.e. electrical conductivit...
متن کاملLand-Use Suitability in Northeast Iran: Application of AHP-GIS Hybrid Model
Land-use suitability is the ability of a given type of land to support a defined use. Analysis of land-use suitability requires the consideration of a variety of criteria, not only the natural/physical capacity of a land unit, but also its socioeconomic and environmental impact implications. As land suitability is assessed within a Geographic Information System (GIS) environment, it is formulat...
