Opis

This book presented a suitability model produced to solve what is referred to as the " High Frequency Location Problem" and them tested the results using location allocation concept. A suitability model was built using GIS that took land features along with other data inputs to help narrow down potential building sites for new radio communication tower by considering various variables. After the model identified appropriate sites for building a tower, additional location allocation methods were employed which further reduced the potential tower construction sites to the most optimal location.
