To build a National Communicable Disease Quarantine Centre, we need to identify a suitable plot of land that is of at least 10,000m3, the following decision factors are to be considered:
- Economic factor: The 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Natural conservation factor: The selected site should be away from forested land, park and water.
The following analysis will include discussions relating to:
- The respective target features (i.e. Roads, Buildings, Natural features, Elevation) present in the study area
- Proximity analysis of these target features
- An Analytical Hierarchical Process input Matrix and the relevant results
Combining all above discussions, a suitable land lot for the construction of the National Communicable Disease Quarantine Centre will then be suggested.
