Examination of compensatory model application in site selection.

Abstract:

:Nowadays, usage of compensatory models in land evaluation process and site selection is broadly observed. Meanwhile, methods such as analytical hierarchy process are used more than the others. Whether the usage of compensatory model methods in site selection studies is essentially correct or not is an issue that should be hesitated. In this model, inefficiency of a factor, to be offset by strength of others, means that in urban development site selection, if somewhere has unsuitable aspect but suitable slope, the aspect deficiency will be compensated by the slope. But quodlibet reflection is that in this model, sometimes, deficiency of proximity to fault can be compensated by other parameters strength. And finally, a place is diagnosed as a suitable area for urban development that is close to the fault. This research aims at examination of compensatory models application in urban development site selection of Taleghan Basin using analytical hierarchy process as one of the compensatory model methods. Among this the weaknesses and strengths of compensatory model were analyzed carefully. Results indicate that despite usefulness of this model in being fast, easy, and low expense, it has some weaknesses like very high sensitivity to decision maker's idea.
