PPGIS Flashcards
What is the essence from the paper?
The rapid and large-scale development of renewable energy worldwide places
simultaneously more pressure on society and the natural environment. This also accounts for normal land use planning. Spatial multicriteria decision analysis (SMCDA) tools can help to locate suitable areas. The Consite tool is an example of this.
What does the Consite tool account to? what is it what does it aim for?
The ConSite tool suite was developed to support integrated and participatory assessment of renewable energy siting within a spatial context. It builds up[on active stakeholder dialogue and sllows for weighted trade-off analysis. It visualizes the consequences of various trade-off / risk decision strategies or weight scenarios.
In this way GIS and MCDA uses participation in decision-making processes.
What is distance decay?
All things are related but near things are more related than distant things.
What is PP-GIS all about?
It’s about public participatory GIS. It involves data collection/validation, communication and design: people can help with the designed solution. asking them spatial questions.
Connecting their answers to spatial data
What is spatial data?
