Identification of Painted RockShelter Sites Using GIS Integrated with a Decision Support System and Fuzzy Logic
@inproceedings{Banerjee2018IdentificationOP, title={Identification of Painted RockShelter Sites Using GIS Integrated with a Decision Support System and Fuzzy Logic}, author={Ruman Banerjee and Prashant Kumar Srivastava and A. W. G. Pike and George P. Petropoulos}, year={2018} }
The conservation and protection of painted rock shelters is an important issue. Throughout the world, if unprotected, they are vulnerable to vandalism or to industrial activities such as quarrying. This research explores the integrated use of a Geographic Information System (GIS) with a multi-criteria decision support system and fuzzy logic to identify possible rock art sites over the Vindhyan Plateau in the district of Mirzapur, Central India. The methodology proposed compares results obtained…
