Abstract

The disasters that occur are mostly unpredictable, but it is necessary to take precautions, assuming that they may occur at any time. When the disaster occurs, interventions and supply of necessary materials are very important applications which directly affect the survival of the victims. Accurate, dynamic and fast delivery of the necessary material depends on careful examination and analysis of the criteria for optimum disaster warehouse site selection. Incorrect determination of the storage locations means that the aid cannot be sent to the disaster area or the aid sent to the incorrect location. This situation may result in wasted efforts and disaster victims not getting any help. In this study, sustainable disaster logistics criteria were evaluated in the selection of disaster warehouse locations in Giresun and optimum disaster warehouse locations were selected. For this purpose, weighting of the criteria which are the determinants of alternative disaster warehouse site alternatives has been determined by AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method. Then, AHP based MAUT (Multi Attribute Utility Theory) and SAW (Simple Additive Weighting) methods were used to select the optimum disaster warehouse location. As a result of the evaluation, “infrastructure” was the most important criteria for the selection of the optimum disaster warehouse location. The most important sub-criterion was “Disaster Structure”. On the other hand, it was determined that the sustainable optimum disaster warehouse location selection was “A2”, which was obtained by both MAUT and SAW methods.

Sürdürülebilir Afet Lojistiğine Yönelik İdeal Afet Depo Yeri Seçimi: Giresun İli Örneği

Abstract

Meydana gelen felaketler çoğunlukla öngörülemez ama her an oluşabileceği varsayılarak önlem almak gerekmektedir. Afet durumunda ihtiyaç duyulan malzemelerin temin edilmesi ve gerekli müdahalelerin yapılması, afete maruz kalan kimselerin hayatta kalmasına doğrudan etki eden çok önemli uygulamalardır. Özellikle gerekli olan malzemenin doğru ve süratli bir biçimde yerine ulaştırılması, ideal afet depo yeri seçimi bileşenlerinin dikkatli bir biçimde incelenmesi ve analiz edilmesine bağlıdır. Depo yerlerinin yanlış belirlenmesi demek, afet bölgesine yardım gönderilememesi veya gönderilen yardımların doğru yere ulaş-maması anlamına gelmektedir. Bu durum yapılan bütün uğraşların boşa gitmesi ve afetzedelerin gerekli yardımları alamamalarıyla sonuçlanabilir. Bu çalışmada, sürdürülebilir afet lojistiğine yönelik Giresun’da ideal afet depo yeri seçimi ölçütleri değerlendirilmiş ve ideal afet depo yeri seçimi yapılmıştır. Bu amaçla sürdürülebilir ideal afet depo yeri seçimi alternatiflerinin belirleyicisi olan ölçütlerin ağırlıklandırılması, AHS (Analitik Hiyerarşi Süreci) yöntemi ile yapılmıştır. Daha sonra, AHS temelli MAUT (Multi Attribute Utility Theory-Çok Nitelikli Karar Verme) ve SAW (Simple Additive Weighting-Basit Toplamlı Ağırlıklan-dırma) yöntemleriyle ideal afet depo yeri seçimi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapılan değerlendirme sonucunda ideal afet depo yeri seçimi ölçütlerinin en önemlisi “Altyapı” olmuştur. En önemli alt ölçütün ise “Afetsel-lik Yapısı” olduğu görülmüştür. Öte yandan hem MAUT hem de SAW yöntemleri ile elde edilen sonuçlara göre sürdürülebilir ideal afet depo yerinin “A2” olduğu saptanmıştır.
