Abstract
GIS-based data fusion is now considered as a common methodology for selecting appropriate sites to locate government or company sites. Due to the success of GIS-based approaches, its UI system becomes very important in service promotion aspects. In particular, UI system presented to general public has to be intuitive and effective to cope with multi-criteria decision making problems (MCDM) which become majority in GIS-based selection problems. In this paper, based on the fuzzy measure and fuzzy integral method for dealing with GIS–MCDM problems, an intuitive UI system for GIS–MCDM is proposed by modifying conventional UI using diamond pairwise comparison diagram focusing on using the easy-to-understand terms and coinciding appropriate meaningful directions with human`s intuitive understanding. In addition, strategy for applying the fuzzy measure and fuzzy integral method along with the proposed UI system upon the public service is also described considering the distributional aspects of computational burden to process data fusion calculation efficiently.
