Rank Alternatives

Alternative ranking is a process during which a set of design alternatives (for the solution of a GeoDesign problem) is ranked based on a set of evaluation criteria, with the alternative that best meets the criteria ranked on top. When alternative ranking is done with a multicriteria decision analysis approach, the ranking is achieved by selecting and applying an appropriate multiattribute or multiobjective decision rule.
