Conclusion |
Our siting research focused on
determining possible locations for a new recreation facility in the
City of
Guelph. A number of objectives were outlined that helped execute our
purpose.
We first determined the social, accessibility and environmental factors
that
played a role in siting. A GIS model was created using MCE analysis
that
assigned weights to each criteria. By using GIS, we were able to store
and
manipulate the data we retrieved and create an output that determined
two
suitable sites. The last objective was to re-evaluate our model and
compare the
two sites. The factors originally considered were taken into
consideration for
both sites and it was found that the locations satisfied our factors.
The model
created was successful for our purpose and could be further improved by
taking
into consideration the limitations described. This model can be applied
to
future siting studies.
