Spatial Planning Using GIS Technology for Optimal Multi-Criteria Location of Belt Conveyor Route

Article Preview

Abstract:

A procedure for determining the optimal location of the conveyor route in a mining company is described in the paper. The decision making process takes into account factors related to legislation as well as technical and environmental constraints. It results in multi-criteria optimization procedure that evaluates the availability of land for the location of the route of belt conveyors transporting the product from the mine to the railway depot. The aim of the analysis is to identify the best location for the belt conveyor that minimize the impact of the route on the environment and local society and use existing technical infrastructure. The approach is implemented in GIS platform, to provide decision support system.
