In Module 6, we learned about Suitability and Least Cost Path Analysis. We were introduced to performing suitability analysis using both vector and raster analysis tools. We prepared our data for suitability analysis using different approaches, such as Boolean and scoring, and adjusted specific parameters using scoring and weighting. Additionally, we performed least-cost path and corridor analysis using cost surfaces as well.
In Scenario 2, our task was to perform a suitability analysis for a land developer. We analyzed several variables including proximity to roads, elevation slope, proximity to rivers, and land cover type. These variables were reclassified and ranked based on the value of each cell in the raster. The raster layers were then combined using the overlay tool. Finally, we were required to create a map layout comparing the results from the two alternatives. Below is my final product.
