Combining spatial analysis with MCDA for the siting of healthcare facilities

TL;DR: The research proposes an evaluation system divided into four criteria, each in turn composed by sub-criteria supported by the methodology of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, with the aim of assessing the land suitability for new healthcare structures, in order to improve the transparency and robustness of the decision-making process.
