| Özet |
| The number of disasters and their adverse effects has been increasing recently. A well-prepared disaster management plan is required for successful disaster response. In this regard, post-disaster temporary shelter areas planned to improve the conditions and normalization of the lives of disaster victims and make the disaster management process more feasible have great importance. It is fundamental for the temporary shelter areas to be planned before the disaster to be in suitable locations for the success of disaster management. In this context, the process of determining the locations of temporary shelters is revealed in this study with the case study of Tokat Province. The total study area covering the city, located on active faults and in the first-degree earthquake zone, is 58.11 km2. Seven different criteria were used within the scope of the study (lithology, elevation, slope, faults, streams, buildings, roads) and were evaluated in detail. The best-worst method, a multi-criteria decision-making method that makes it possible to evaluate alternatives by comparing them, was used together with geographical information systems. A map of areas suitable for use as temporary shelters after a disaster in Tokat Province has been produced. The areal ratio of suitable, conditionally suitable, and unsuitable terrains to be used as PDTS areas in the study area was found to be 33%, 46%, and 21%, respectively. The study also shows that the methods used are successful for spatial suitability assessments. |
