GIS AND FUZZY AHP BASED AREA SELECTION FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS

Significant work is being done to protect the world and ecosystem. Innovative approaches are being explored to reduce the harm of the methods used to sustain life. Mobility is an essential issue that affects people and society in today's life. Automobiles are the most commonly used vehicle for mobility in private life and public service activities such as transportation. One of the important subjects that should be applied to environmentally sensitive methods is transportation. One of the major problems encountered today is the harmful effects of internal combustion motor vehicles. Electric vehicles are preferred because they work efficiently and with the least damaging effect on the environment. The location of electric vehicles is a complicated problem because it depends on many different factors. In this study, fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (Fuzzy AHP) as multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods and geographic information systems (GIS) to manage data which can be used for the location selection of electric vehicles charging stations are researched. The study area was determined by three neighboring districts boundaries city of Istanbul in Turkey

Spatial data-based e-municipality applications

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are playing an increasingly vital role in the daily lives of people, revolutionising work and leisure and changing the rules of doing business. In the realm of government, ICT applications or e-government are promising to enhance the delivery of public goods and services to citizens not only by improving the process and management of government, but also by redefining the traditional concepts of citizenship. e-government is the use of information and communication technology, combined with organisational change and new skills to improve public services. There are two main types of web-based applications for spatial data-based e-government applications over the internet: (a) interactive web-based maps that can be queried on the internet and (b) spatial databased e-government information that can be accessed by the clients or public on the internet. In Turkey, although there is a remarkable improvement in the non-spatial data-based e-government applications, there has been little progress in spatial data-based e-government applications. This paper discusses spatial data-based e-government applications developed so far to allow the user to access e-government spatial information through the internet. The paper presents results of a pilot application of the system design developed to carry out emunicipality applications

UNDERSTANDING URBAN REGENERATION IN TURKEY

In Turkey, rapid population growth, informal settlements, and buildings and infrastructures vulnerable to natural hazards are seen as the most important problems of cities. Particularly disaster risk cannot be disregarded, as large parts of various cities are facing risks from earthquakes, floods and landslides and have experienced loss of lives in the recent past. Urban regeneration is an important planning tool implemented by local and central governments in order to reduce to disaster risk and to design livable environments for the citizens. The Law on the Regeneration of Areas under Disaster Risk, commonly known as the Urban Regeneration Law, was enacted in 2012 (Law No.6306, May 2012). The regulation on Implementation of Law No. 6306 explains the fundamental steps of the urban regeneration process. The relevant institutions furnished with various authorities such as expropriation, confiscation and changing the type and place of your property which makes urban regeneration projects very important in terms of property rights. Therefore, urban regeneration projects have to be transparent, comprehensible and acceptable for all actors in the projects. In order to understand the urban regeneration process, the legislation and projects of different municipalities in Istanbul have been analyzed. While some steps of it are spatial data demanding, others relate to land values. In this paper an overview of the urban regeneration history and activities in Turkey is given. Fundamental steps of the urban regeneration process are defined, and particularly spatial-data demanding steps are identified
