“…For the health domain, we have already proposed a planning tool providing such analysis based on the two-step floating catchment area method (2SFCA) [40]. We expect new, interesting use cases for the spectrum of public services planning by joining web-DSSS and 2SFCA with more location-allocation-based components, as has been performed in [41].…”

Dynamic processes in society and demographics require a rapid response and adaptation of the existing public service infrastructure. Responsible planners must be able to analyse the situation, identify gaps in provision and derive decisions. The paper presents a web application that supports finding answers to various questions and planning decisions in the context of public service infrastructures (e.g., schools, pharmacies, supermarkets). Due to the high complexity, the combination of multi-criteria decision analysis and geographical information systems, especially in the web context, is still rarely implemented. With this spatial decision support system, we are pursuing an approach that makes multi-criteria analyses with spatially explicit methods available to the planning domain. By using this application, the user can select and adjust input parameters independently and thus strongly influence the analysis process and results—without a deep knowledge of decision-making methods or software skills. With such a centrally provided online multi-criteria spatial decision support system, the transparency and the quality of the analysis increase, while the workload for the planners is reduced, since they no longer have to spend time on preliminary data search and integration or on building complex methods and models themselves.

“…Community health service facilities are essential for all communities, and their location has long been an important issue in urban planning (Song et al, 2021). Nowadays, Geographic Information System (GIS) technology has been widely applied in various fields of earth studies to optimize the analysis and presentation of spatial data (Sigit, 2011).…”

Health is one of the basic needs needed by everyone. Therefore, the government and community development should prioritize improving public health services. Hospitals in an area have an important role in community social services, especially health services. This research was conducted to assess hospitals' distribution and availability and analyze the quality and health services in Metro City. The 2SFCA method was used to determine the level of accessibility in Metro City. The accessibility value could assess the distribution and fulfillment of existing hospitals in Metro City and analyze the quality and health services there. The distribution of hospitals in Metro City showed that, on average, the hospitals are spread over areas with a high population density. The level of need and fulfillment of hospital facilities in Metro City is appropriate because hospitals are directly proportional to the number of residents. The 2SFCA results also showed a tendency for accessibility between hospitals and cities where accessibility is high in areas around hospitals, such as the Central Metro Area. However, in some cases, an area that has a good level of accessibility does not necessarily get good health services. Inadequate accessibility indicated that the fulfillment of hospitals in Metro City has not been fulfilled and is spread evenly in each region. With high accessibility and fulfillment, people can access health services better.
