Abstract: Decision support systems (DSS) are highly used in industries like management and administration. However, recently they are also being used in engineering for solving problems up to certain extent. Suitability analysis is a technique used in civil and environmental engineering which is majorly GIS based. A DSS was developed for suitability analysis of various natural aspects of a region with its implementation in civil and environmental. The system is a graphical user interface developed programmatically with the help of MATLAB. It is based on direct interaction and processing with images. It was implemented on LULC, Drain ability, and slope to study the simultaneous effect of these features and observe their combined contribution to the analysis. It was observed that the system can produce the combined effect and also produce the simultaneous effect of variation of weights of features and elements of input images in real time. The number of features being studied simultaneously can be varied according to the requirement of the study.
