Urban park area feasibility analysis using fuzzy aggregation of multi-spatial criteria and multi-expert weights

Abstract

This article delivers result of urban park feasible areas and locations in Bogor Municipality. Six criteria raster maps namely, urban park policy demand, accessibility, population density, distance to school, distance to water body, and distance to electric power line altogether were aggregated using integrated spatial fuzzy DEMATEL (Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory) and different experts' importance weights. Urban park suitable locations were then superimposed on non-urban area of existing land use map to provide feasible locations. By selecting two classes of urban park suitability, high and very high, the feasible urban park areas and locations were compared. The combined group of experts provide the highest suitable area (19.26 sq km) while government experts and combined all weights provide the most similar areas and locations.
