Review and Analysis of Optimum Pattern for Distribution of Educational Centers by Using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MADM) in GIS Environment Case Study: Education and Training Center of District No. 1 of Kermanshah
Abstract
Imbalance in the distribution system and failure of services including educational spaces is a key issue that is observed in the larger cities. Uneven and unplanned development and rapid population growth can be considered as the main reasons for the occurrence of this problem. In order to increase the efficiency of these spaces, attention to the appropriate organization and distribution is necessary. The method of this research is of descriptive-analytical one and its nature is fundemental-applied one. Its purpose is to examine the distribution of educational spaces by using the existing analyses in Geographical Information System (GIS) and using AHP technic and Delphi method thorough considering the parameters influencing on the spatial distribution of educational centers and provide an appropriate model and the optimal distribution of educational centers In the study area for the purpose of sustaibability and meeting the social and economical objectives of urban land use. The results indicated that the schools of the district is not enough to cover the entire districts of the area and some western parts of the area are deprived from justic and favorable access And are excluded from the coverage of the existing schools. Therfore, for determining the areazoning, no special regulation has been observed in the urban planning and it is recommended that in the future researches, an appropriate response is given to this important requirement and a regular zoning to be determined for the schools. Most of the urban areaswhich has a great population of the secondary and high school students particularly the high school, has no the requied educational place and this has increased the dencity of students in the schools of the other areas of the city. Also, locating for educational places regardless of how to access, not only is vulnerable from safety aspects and threatens the health of the students who traffic in this ares, but also will not be successful from the view point of reducing the urban problems including the traffic.
