Part 1: Base Map Views

In order to identify a location suitable for building a National Communicable Disease Quarantine Centre given in the task question, we have to first look at the important aspects for consideration in targeted Gombak planning subzone by building the base map views 1) Gombak Road 2) Gombak Building 3) Gombak Natural Features 4) Digital Elevation together with targeted study area - Bukit Gombak:

2.Aggregated View Description Digital Elevation Layer

Write-up 1.Roads(only service & tracks) In view of the Accessibility Factor that we need to consider that requires the selected site to be close to local roads to ensure easy transportation of building materials during the construction stage, we are using roads layer as one of the base map. The data has been cleaned up as required to show only categorized service roads using thicker strokes and tracks using thinner strokes. There are 199 service roads and only 2 tracks. From observation,the service roads spread across of the target area and are more concentrated in the north east didtrict. 2. Building In view of the Health Risk factor that we need to consider that requires the selected site to be away from population to prevent the diseases from spreading to the public. By using categorize visualization of the building types, we can see there are 7 types including clinic, construction site, garage, place of worship, public space, residential area, and train station. However, 95%(505) of the building data are not known of its type which make it hard to present a clear understanding of the building type by categorizing it. 3.Natural Features In view of the Natural Conservation factor that we need to consider that requires the selected site should be also be away from natural features, such as forests, parks and water bodies. From the OSM data, we can see there are 1 forest, 4 parks and 3 water bodies in the target area. Since these features are special regions and are reserved - we will use special color scheme to identify them 1)forest is in grey green, 2)parks is in light green 3)water bodies is in light blue. 4. Digital Elevation In view of the Economic factor that we need to consider that requires the selected site should avoid steep slopes to reduce the development costs for cut-and-fill construction techniques. The lowest elevation is 8 meters above sea level, depicted in grey/white.The highest elevation with 145 meters above sea level, depicted in dark black.

Part 2: Factor Layers:Proximity and Slope Map Views

Next, we did a proximity analysis to show the closeness of all features in target area to the identified features of interest. As shown in the screenshot below, the darker parts the maps below depict higher closeness to the features of interest.

Four views showing the proximity map to 1)target roads layer, 2) buildings layer,3) target natural features layer and 4) slope layer that are created in Part 1.

4.Slope Layer	Description Slope

Part 3: Factor Layers with Criterion Scores

A map layout with four views showing the criterion scores of each factor layers including 1)Economic factor 2) Accessibility Factor 3) Health Risk Factor 4) Natural Conservation Factor

Factor Layer	Criterion Scores
1. Economic Factor	he selected site should avoid steep slope. This is because construction at steep slope tends to involve a lot of cut-and-fill and will lend to relatively higher development cost. 250px School types Description
2. Accessibility Factor	The selected site should be close to existing local roads, namely: service roads and tracks. This is to ensure easy transportation of building materials during the construction stage [[File:|600px|center]] Road Network
3. Health Risk Factor	The selected site should be away from population i.e. housing areas and offices in order to avoid disease spreading to the nearby population 700px Land Use
4.Natural Conservation Factor	The selected site should be away from forested land, park and water [[File:|600px|center]] Road Network

Part 4: Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) input matrix
