An alternative approach supported by decision support systems and geographical information system for producing internet based map: competition method

Establishing relation between new systems, which are created with developing internet and artificial intelligence technologies, has become an important requirement. In today with the use of these systems, the actual and accurate information are provided to be accessible by internet users. In this step, while Geographical Information System (GIS), which uses database relation, supports to the users with analysis and assessment; Decision Support Systems (DSS) give the most ideal results for decision makers in the correct decision making process. Although these two systems are similar when they are examined, there is no available unique system, which assesses them together. This situation has been a problem to get accurate information and analysis results for users. In this study, integration of GIS and DSS has been provided by developing a new algorithm called competition method as an alternative to the other algorithms, which are commonly in use. Therefore, it is aimed with this proposed method to obtain updated and more accurate results by means of attribute data, which are obtained without requiring making surveys and getting target groups for criteria used in the decision process. In this study, the competition method has been developed by using information such as population information, district area, educational institutions, transportation network etc. for 39 districts of Istanbul. In addition, pairwise comparisons were made based on 28 criteria, then advantage and disadvantage status were analyzed and colored score map was produced. As a result; the investigation results have been served to the users quickly with an internet-based map
