Evaluating Land Suitability using Fuzzy Logic Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
A system for evaluating land suitability using fuzzy logic method has been developed. The system determining a degree of delimitation, land ratings, suitability classes, and their actual land suitability subclasses of given land characteristics. The main parts of the evaluation process, which included in the fuzzy inference engine of the knowledge based system, are fuzzification and defuzzification. They are discussed partly in this paper to show how the system works. The results of shows that the system can evaluate the land suitability for different types of crops of given land characteristics or vise versa. The evaluated rating indicates the degree of suitability for crops to be cultivated on a given land area with the existing conditions.

Feature Selection as a Time and Cost-Saving Approach for Land Suitability Classification (Case Study of Shavur Plain, Iran)
Land suitability classification is important in planning and managing sustainable land use. Most approaches to land suitability analysis combine a large number of land and soil parameters, and are time-consuming and costly. In this study, a potentially useful technique (combined feature selection and fuzzy-AHP method) to increase the efficiency of land suitability analysis was presented. To thi...

Use of new techniques to evaluate irrigation areas can enhance water use efficiency in agriculture. In this study, the fuzzy analytic hierarchy Process (FAHP) was used to qualitative land suitability for sprinkler irrigation and was compared with the parametric method. Evaluation based on parametric method showed that an area of about 1597.83 hectares (31%) of the lands was highly suitable (S1)...
