GIS- Based MCDM for Central Business Suitability in a Small City


Extended urbanization phenomenon in smallersized cities in Java should be considered by the government.
However, the local governments can only use the plans from the
central government. The negative effects of this, among others,
are improper land use allocation, lack of facilities, and crimes
that are difficult to handle. This study proposes a geographic
information system (GIS)-based method to analyze the proper
central business district in Karawang, a small district in Java,
Indonesia. Multi-criteria analysis of factors affecting the
candidate locations was used through a weighted sum method in
a model. The spatial data were retrieved and analyzed using a
GIS tool to classify region into urban, peri-urban, and rural.
Some central business locations have been found after
reclassification which is located near the toll gates. Two
locations in the north of Karawang were classified have the
potential to become the new central business locations.
