Spatial decision tree model for garlic land suitability evaluation

Land Suitability Analysis for Orange & Pineapple: A Multi Criteria Decision Making Approach Using Geo Spatial Technology

Land evaluation procedure given by FAO for soil site suitability for various land utilization types for rainfed agriculture has been used to assess the land suitability for khasi mandarin orange and pineapple in East Khasi Hills District of Meghalaya. The database on soil and land use/land cover was generated from IRS-P6 remote sensing satellite data, soil survey and laboratory analysis of soil...

Modeling land suitability/capability using fuzzy evaluation

Modeling the suitability of land to support specific land uses is an important and common GIS application. Three classic models, specifically pass/ fail screening, graduated screening and weighted linear combination, are examined within a more general framework defined by fuzzy logic theory. The rationale underlying each model is explained using the concepts of fuzzy intersections, fuzzy unions...

Spatial Uncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis for Multiple Criteria Land Suitability Evaluation

Classification Model for Hotspot Occurrences Using Spatial Decision Tree Algorithm

Developing a predictive model for forest fires occurrence is an important activity in a fire prevention program. The model describes characteristics of areas where fires occur based on past fires data. It is essential as an early warning system for preventing forest fires, thus major damages because of fires can be avoided. This study describes the application of data mining technique namely de...

Decision Making in Agriculture Based on Land Suitability – Spatial Data Analysis Approach

India, being an agricultural country analysis of soil texture and water resource plays a vital role in increasing the productivity of crops. The area of study is Vellore district in Tamil Nadu where agriculture is the main occupation. Though it is a fact, most of the land remains uncultivated due to the lack of knowledge of soil and water wealth. This paper proposes a method to analyze the suit...
