GIS-basedland suitability analysis of sustainable hillside development

Hillsides have encroached for development because of increasing scarcity of flat land. This would potentially create serious environmental issues such as unstable slope collapse. A GIS-based Multi-criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) was used for land suitability analysis of hillside development. Howev...
