    (2019) Ertunç, Ela; Bozdağ, Aslı; Gökçek, Öznur Begüm
    Nowadays, increasing population and consumption rate have led to the need for the removalof solid wastes from urban areas in a more economical, environmentally friendly, and controlled manner.The increasing growth of urban area along with the increasing population and the need to protect thenatural structure of the rural area for the continuity of life have made the selection of suitable sites for thestorage of solid wastes a quite important process. In urban areas, increasing population density and solidwaste production rate, the diversity of land use, environmental and climatic changes, and the expectationsof urban stakeholders (implementers, managers, and living stakeholders) regarding solid waste storageareas have turned the site selection of solid waste storage areas into a complex process.The successful management of this complex and multi-actor process for solid wastes along with itseconomic, environmental and social aspects and the protection and development of urban and rural livesrequire a system. The Geographic Information System (GIS) and its applications are important tools in themanagement and monitoring of this complex process with its abilities to store graphical and non-graphicaldata, to analyze them by using together, to model and visualize them.In this study, the solid waste landfill site located in the city center of Niğde province in Turkey wasevaluated by the analyses performed using the GIS (land use, slope, visibility, spatial distances). Thesuitability of the solid waste landfill site for the changing land use in the strategic planning process of thecity center of Niğde was discussed with the analyses.
