This Study describes a methodological approach based on the use of
GIS and multi criteria analysis to identify Tree planting sites in
Manchester. A set of criteria were defined to evaluate tree
planting sites. After defining the criteria, next step was to
selecting suitable indicators and variables to measure the selected
criteria for analysis. Later on these criteria were ranked using
the pair wise comparison method of multi criteria analysis and
results was integrated into GIS. Multi criteria analysis and GIS is
an effective approach for GIS decision makers as it allows one to
gradually narrow down a problem. Integration of multi criteria
analysis and GIS will give decision makers to explore the options
of providing effectiveness to the factors.This study also shows
that how GIS and MCE are a powerful tool for decision makers and
how it helps people in identifying problem areas that need
immediate attention or for further planning purpose.
