This study defines the optimum route planning for Electric Transmission Lines by Multicriteria Decision Analysis which is based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Determination of the optimum route is performed by using both the spatial and Euclidean distances between two points located on the Earth’s surface. The criteria needed to be taken into account to define the route of the Electrical Transmission Lines were evaluated with help of the experts who are doing this business in the available system and for this study the decision about the usage of needed data such as landuse map, landuse capability map, geology map, road map, zone plan and digital elevation models is also made with their knowledge. A Matlab code, which computes the optimum distance between two transformers by using real distance (spatial distance) method and by considering materials mentioned above is written. The results are compared with the ones found from the Euclidian distance, which is the common distance finding method in the available commercial GIS softwares. The spatial resolution effect in finding the spatial distance is also analyzed. The routes obtained by two different distance computation methods are compared with the existing route. The economical expectations in finding the optimum route are also discussed.

Preparation of a geotechnical microzonation model using Geographical Information Systems based on Multicriteria Decision Analysis
Kolat, Çağıl; AYDAY, Can; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi (2006-11-03)
The purpose of this study is to develop a geotechnical microzonation model using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) based on Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA). As study area, the Eskisehir downtown area has been chosen. Eskisehir is one of the most rapidly growing cities in central Turkey. The model inputs include slope, flood susceptibility, soil, depth to groundwater table, swelling potential, and liquefaction potential. The weight and rank values are assigned to the layers and to the classes of ...
Priority based multi-constrained quality of service routing in military applications
Araz, Bora; Koçyiğit, Altan; Department of Information Systems (2005)
This thesis proposes a new algorithm for multi-constrained Quality of Service Optimal Path Routing in the context of military applications. The objective of our routing algorithm is to manage network traffic according to quality of service requirements of connection requests using military metrics. The algorithm is mainly based on communication priority. The QoS metrics such as bandwidth, delay and packet loss ratio are considered as basic metrics on path finding. If there is no suitable path for the reques...
Developing a spatial decision support system for telecom wireline infrastructure of Ankara city
Dabanlı, Ahmet; Akyürek, Sevda Zuhal; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2010)
This thesis covers database creation, system design and application development for wire line telecom infrastructure within Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and concentrates on spatial decision support applications and serving wire line subscriber coordinates for emergency calls in Ankara. The main mission of the Telecommunication in the past was to serve for voice communication activities. Currently voice, internet, data and video communications are available. These new services need better bandwidth...
Development of GIS-based national hydrography dataset, sub-basin boundaries, and water quality/quantity data analysis system for Turkey
Girgin, Serkan; Usul, Nurünnisa; Akyürek, Zuhal; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2003)
Computerized data visualization and analysis tools, especially Geographic Information Systems (GIS), constitute an important part of today̕s water resources development and management studies. In order to obtain satisfactory results from such tools, accurate and comprehensive hydrography datasets are needed that include both spatial and hydrologic information on surface water resources and watersheds. If present, such datasets may support many applications, such as hydrologic and environmental modeling, imp...
A Qualitative model of the critical success factors for the effectiveness of information systems outsourcing
Uçar, Erkan; Bilgen, Semih; Yöndem, Meltem Turhan; Department of Information Systems (2012)
The objective of this research is to construct a model of the critical success factors for the effectiveness of Information Systems (IS) outsourcing. “Lack of in-house expertise” and “cost effectiveness” are the widely accepted major factors of motivation for IS outsourcing. Although various decision models and analytical frameworks have been proposed before, the literature is not abundant on a complete qualitative model. In contrast with the decision models which are executed before an outsourcing engageme...
