Take-home Exercise Report

Gombak and Target Roads

The selected site should be close to existing local roads, namely: service roads and tracks. Out of the 451 roads, there are 199 service roads and 2 tracks. In general, the roads are mainly located and clustered at the North and West of Gombak.

Gombak and Buildings

The selected site should be away from population i.e. housing areas and offices in order to avoid disease spreading to the nearby population. There are 13 buildings which have "residential" as type and they are located at the South-West of Gombak. In general, the buildings are also mainly located and clustered at the North and West of Gombak, similar to the target roads.

Gombak and Target Natural Features

The selected site should be away from forested land, park and water to reduce the risk of getting further infected by any insects or unknown species in environments as such. The natural features are mainly located at the South-West, North-West and East of Gombak. Natural features in Gombak include 3 water bodies, 4 parks and one forested area.

Gombak and Digital Elevation

The selected site should avoid steep slope. The elevation ranges from 8 to 143, with the lower elevation nearer the perimeter of Gombak (except the South of Gombak), mid elevation surrounding the Central of Gombak highest elevation between the Central and South of Gombak.

Gombak and Proximity to Target Roads Layer

The proximity from roads to a piece of 5m^2 land varies from 0 to 708.68m. As the selected sites should be closer to existing local roads, the areas in the red shaded region should be taken into consideration.

Gombak and Proximity to Buildings Layer

The proximity from buildings to a piece of 5m^2 land varies from 0 to 743.96m. As the selected site should be away from population, the green and yellow shaded regions should be taken into consideration although the blue shaded regions indicate the furthest distance from the buildings as the blue shaded regions are outside of the Gombak boundary.

Gombak and Proximity to Target Natural Features Layer

The proximity from natural features to a piece of 5m^2 land varies from 0 to 172.73m. As the selected site should be away from natural features, the green and yellow shaded regions should be taken into consideration although the blue shaded regions indicate the furthest distance from natural features as the blue shaded regions are outside of the Gombak boundary.

Gombak and Slope Layer

The slope steepness varies from 0 to 36.4 degrees. The selected site should avoid steep slope and hence the red and orange shaded regions should be taken into consideration.

Map Layout With Criterion Scores

A map layout with four views showing the criterion scores of each factor layers and a short description of not more than 150 words for each view.

AHP Matrix And Result Report

An Analytical Hierarchical Process input matrix and result report and a short description of not more than 150 words discussing the analysis results.

Map Layout With The Suitability Land Lot(s)

A map layout with the suitability land lot(s) and a short description of not more than 200 words commenting on each of the suitable land lot identified.
