THE EARTHQUAKE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF GALLIPOLI PENINSULA USING GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS (GIS) AND ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS (AHP)

Earthquake is one of the forces of nature which leads to loss of life and property and cannot be predicted beforehand. Half of the Turkish territory is in the first-degree zone and 44% of the population lives in this zone. Inappropriate area selection for settlement may turn earthquake, an ordinary...
