Master Thesis Gis-Based Multi-Criteria Approach for Land-Use Suitability Analysis of Wind Farms: the Case Study of Karaburun Peninsula, Izmir,-Turkey(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2015) Sediqi, Khwaja Jawid; Özdemir, Semahat; Saygın, Mustafa Ömür; Saygın, Mustafa Ömür; Özdemir, SemahatThis study presents a GIS-based multi-criteria approach to identify the most preferred or suitable site for wind farms development in Karaburun Peninsula, İzmir. Criteria for analysis have been identified based on literature review and experts’ opinions. The selected criteria include environmental, technical, and economic as well as social factors. In order to estimate the weights or relative importance of the criteria, the pairwise comparison method in the context of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is implemented. The overall suitability of the study area is determined through the Weighted Overlay method, which is a sufficient weighted approach in geographical information system (GIS) environment. The outcome or suitability map is classified into five scored classes from the most suitable to less suitable and restricted area. On the whole, as the selection of optimal site for the wind farm development is a multi-dimensional process, this thesis intends to consider the following three significant subjects; (a) evaluating and identifying the most influential criteria for land suitability analysis of wind farms, (b) applying AHP as a multi criteria decision-making method to determine the criteria weights, (c) utilizing GIS as a tool to overlay the overall criteria and consequently to identify the potentially suitable location for the wind farms development. Regarding to the above mentioned, eight the most influential available criteria, which are consisted of wind potential, distance from preservation area, distance from settlements, forest, slope, elevation, distance from roads, and agriculture area are identified. Base on pairwise comparison different weights for each criterion is determined. Finally, by using GIS the suitability map for the study area is provided and the result compared with the existing wind farm locations.Master Thesis Interaction of Urban Fringe and Transportation System: Istanbul Case(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2007) Günay, Emel; Saygın, Mustafa Ömür; Saygın, Mustafa ÖmürNowadays, urban sprawl is common problem of all cities. Decentralization of housing with low density and jobs into urban fringe areas is considerable development Sprawl is blamed a wide range of problems likewise wasteful use of land, air pollution, dependence on car, increased traffic congestion, lengthened travel distance and time, but it is not clear explaining how urban sprawl affects travel behavior in Turkey?The aim of the thesis is to identify the influence and importance of urban sprawl on travel behavior in Turkey. Firstly literature survey on urban sprawl and urban fringe was examined. Geographic Information System was used to define and map urban sprawl. Daily trip production in sprawl and urban core was analyzed. In addition daily travel behavior was inquired. For this study, 2007 İstanbul Master Plan Household and O-D survey was also used. It allows comparisons travel behavior between sprawl and urban core area.The results confirmed that there is no much difference on socio economic situation between people living in urban sprawl area and people living in urban core area. However using of private car is higher rate in sprawl area than urban core. In addition sprawl population drive more time and distance than urban population. The results provide important insights into the importance of sprawl on transportation and suggest that transportation system can be adversely affected to the extent that cities continue to expand to urban sprawl areas as wanton.As a consequence, sprawl effects İstanbul transportation as negative because sprawl affects travel behavior. This situation creates increased private car ownerships and traffic congestion. To solve this problem and many other problems in transportation related sprawl, studies on transportation and master planning should be considered sprawl fact.Book Part Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Spatial Transformations in Istanbul Cbd: the Role of Ict?(Information Science Reference, 2008) Geçer Sargın, Feral; Avar, Adile; Velibeyoğlu, Koray; Saygın, Mustafa ÖmürNow with the intensive use of information and communication technologies, many cities around the world are competing to become a global city. Istanbul is enumerated within the first 50 cities in the globalization process, other than the triad of New York, London, and Tokyo. This chapter explores urban space transformation of Maslak, the contemporary central business district of Istanbul, with respect to information and communication technologies, by using deconcentration and economic restructuring approaches of urban theory. Compared to other global cities, Istanbul has distinctive characteristics, since it has been passing through a unique transformation process. More specifically, its economic, political, and social characteristics distinguish Istanbul from other cities within the same category (Gamma) of world cities. This study has revealed that transformations in Istanbul were not primarily driven by information and communication technologies. In contrast information and communication technology's role in the transformation of the Istanbul central business district is only a contributing factor.Conference Object A Decision Support System for Assessment of Land-Use Changes, the Case of Izmir(LookUs Scientific, 2013) Yazdani, Hamidreza; Saygın, ÖmürLand-Use changes and their possible impacts over time as consequences of proposed urban developments are one of main concerns of planners in planning process. Understanding the impact of these changes on environment is a crucial issue in the planning approach aims to achieve the sustainable urban development. A Planning support system (PSS) is mainly based on collecting, monitoring, analysing data and evaluating the impacts of alternative planning scenarios using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) This paper offers an approach to evaluate the interoperability of a model based on the data sets to be explored. Considering the integration of satellite imagery, field survey and plans where adequate local data set is missing and modifying the model to evaluate best represented data increase reliability of a model. For this propose this study modifies "ESRI Smart Land-Use model (LUCIS)" for the data represented region meanwhile integrates the data sets for the most accurate representation This model based on best presented data provides crucial decision guidelines for decision makers in testing development scenarios. Different PSS's have different algorithms and underlying assumptions. Consequently Comparing results of several PSS (ie. CommunityViz, What-If) for the same purpose could be more reliable than testing a single model in a project Further research should be conducted via web-based monitoring system that would improve collaboration of different interest groups.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Spatial Point Pattern Analysis of Lung Cancer in an Urban Area: Izmir Case(Taylor & Francis, 2013) Özkan, Sevim Pelin; Tarhan, Çiğdem; Eser, Sultan; Yakut, C.; Saygın, ÖmürIn health area, in order to conduct a reliable analysis of the diseases that threat public health and develop control strategies. This is required to investigate firstly how the disease are geographically distributed, secondly regions where disease is observed more dense, and thirdly their geo-statistical aspects. The aim of the study is to prepare spatially distribution map of the lung cancer cases in Izmir, Turkey, and are distributed on Izmir map via GIS. Spatial statistics are performed and the relations of geographical factors and the cancer data are discussed. Smart maps with tabular data and displaying cancer cases on a spatially distribution maps have been produced as end products. ArcGIS and Spatial Analyst module are used for the study.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 1Online Urban Information Systems(IGI Global, 2008) Yigitcanlar, Tan; Saygin, ÖmürCountless factors affect the inner workings of a city, so in an attempt to gain an understanding of place and making sound decisions, planners need to utilize decision support systems (DSS) or planning support systems (PSS). PSS were originally developed as DSS in academia for experimental purposes, but like many other technologies, they became one of the most innovative technologies in parallel to rapid developments in software engineering as well as developments and advances in networks and hardware. Particularly, in the last decade, the awareness of PSS have been dramatically heightened with the increasing demand for a better, more reliable and furthermore a transparent decision-making process (Klosterman, Siebert, Hoque, Kim, & Parveen, 2003). Urban planning as an act has quite different perspective from the PSS point of view. The unique nature of planning requires that spatial dimension must be considered within the context of PSS. Additionally, the rapid changes in socio-economic structure cannot be easily monitored or controlled without an effective PSS. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Master Thesis An Assessment of Spatial Relationship Between Lung Cancer Incidence Rate and Quality of Urban Life: Izmir Case(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2013) Özkan, Sevim Pelin; Saygın, Mustafa ÖmürThe study assesses spatial clusters of lung cancer incidences within Izmir province on the basis of districts and also neighborhood using an objective sets of quality of life indicators. Lung cancer data, approximately 18.000 cases, were acquired from the Izmir Cancer Registry Center (ICRC) between the years of 1992-2007. Cases have been confirmed in terms of accuracy by World Health Organization (WHO). As objective indicator data, point source air pollution data acquired from the Izmir Metropolitan Municipality database between the years of 1993-2007. Besides, socio-economic statistics data were obtained from Turkish Statistical Institute (TSI) regional indicators (2000,2007) and Izmir Metropolitan Municipality city health profile (2007). The datasets were used to determine whether there is a significant spatial relationship between cancer case density and environmental contamination. This thesis uses spatial statistical models and Geographical Information System (GIS) techniques to analyze population-based cancer incidence rate. Additionally, Age Standardized Incidence (ASR) of the lung cancer was calculated. Spatial autocorrelation technique was performed to investigate local distribution of lung cancer. Results of the study suggest that spatial clusters of lung cancer were detected in geographic locations with low level environmental quality and high level socio-economic profile. Then, the results are discussed in terms of life quality and environmental quality of Izmir. The results of this study are useful for interdisciplinary researchers, epidemiological studies, policymakers and governmental agencies in terms of health and environmental assessment, regulation and control of spatial strategies.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 5Online Participatory Decision Support Tools for Knowledge-Based Urban Development(Information Science Reference, 2008) Yiğitcanlar, Tan; Saygın, Mustafa Ömür; Han, Jung HoonParticularly in the last decade, there have been a number of efforts to develop and then integrate planning support systems into existing geographic information systems. This integration brought a new technology called WebGIS, which enables geographic information systems functionalities through the Internet for decision support. No doubt there is a growing demand as more and more individuals want to use online government services to express their views and most importantly to take part in decisionmaking processes interactively. At this point, WebGIS offers a challenging opportunity for online participatory planning since the public could easily access alternative plans and the existing information in geographic information systems databases. This technology enables individuals to be able to take part in plan-making processes and contribute. This chapter explores how these new technological advances could achieve truly transparent plan-making process based on online participatory planning support tools that knowledge-based urban development could benefit from.
