Gis-based groundwater potential mapping in state of Melaka using analytical hierarchy process (AHP) technique / Irfan Aris

The aim of this research is to use geographical information system (GIS) application with the aid of analytical hierarchy process (AHP) multi criteria decision analysis technique for groundwater potential mapping in the state of Melaka, Malaysia. As stated in this study, eight groundwater control pa...
