Discrepancy of assessments in group decision making as important information in solving spatial conflicts

Journal Title: Acta Scientarum Polonorum Administratio Locorum - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 3

Abstract

Making spatial decisions related to the allocation of management functions is associated with the issue of solving spatial conflicts. The determination of usefulness of land for a land use function applies geo-graphic information systems and methods of multi-criteria analysis. The analysis process increasingly frequently involves groups of participants playing different roles in the decision making process and having different goals. The discrepancy of assessments of particular members of the group can be analyzed, and measures of discrepancy can be determined. The maps of usefulness of land determi-ned by multi-criteria analysis constitute input data for the analysis of multi-goal allocation of land function. In geographic information systems, solving the issue of land allocation frequently applies heuristic methods using various approaches to the occurring spatial conflict. This article describes the developed analysis procedure, in which it was assumed that the spatial measure of discrepancy of assessments of decision-makers is an important factor which should be considered in solving spa-tial conflicts.
