OVERVIEW	PROXIMITY	CRITERION SCORES	AHP	SUITABILITY

With the AHP scores for each of the factors for the construction of the CDQC buildings in Gombak, we can now combine the normalized proximity criterion score layers of the Roads, Buildings, Natural Features and Slope layer to determine the areas within the Gombak boundary that could be suitable for the CDQC. For the combination of the Suitability Raster Map, the following formula was used in the Raster Calculator: ("Buildings_Proximity_Normalised_Inverted@1"*47.9%) + ("NaturalFeatures_Proximity_Normalised_Inverted@1"*10.9%) + ("Roads_Proximity_Normalised@1"*36.6%) + ("Slope_Normalised@1"*4.7%) The result would be the combination of all four of these normalized layer into a single criterion score Suitability Raster Map after the criteria weights were incorporated into their respective factors. The map below shows the output after symbolization.

Recalling from the Criterion Score Map Layout of the Four Factors, in which all their scales followed 0 to be FAVOURABLE and 1 to be UNFAVOURABLE, this map's scale would be interpreted in a similar fashion, in which the lower the values, the greater the favourability of that area being suitable for the construction of the CDQC.
