“…1). In many municipalities in Kosovo including city of Prishtina in the last 15 years, during the planning process and especially when the need of the urban growth boundary and designation of areas for future development are made under the influence of subjective factors, urban boundaries expanded in inappropriate, unsuitable locations often with a high degree of risk [7]. Results in Table I show that 85% of the land is designated for residential buildings.…”

This paper has the main focus in energy consumption by the residential sector in city of Prishtina. Considering the fact that the energy production in Kosovo is not sufficient in relation with the everyday demand and at the same time the growth of the energy demand based on different resources is evident, a detailed analysis and identification of the energy performance of this sector is inevitable. One of the main components that cause the energy demand in residential sector is the heating energy demand. The energy resource and heating systems used by the residential sector in city of Prishtina are diverse. This paper elaborates and identifies the number of residential buildings, number of dwellings, building typologies, heating energy resources, heating systems used by the dwellings and the energy demand for heating energy, by using quantitative methodology. Based on the results achieved by the research, future detailed analysis is possible to identify other components, which affect the heating energy demand by the residential sector. These first results can be used as a basis of the first district scaled energy modeling of the city of Pristhina. By applying the energy management method, developed by Prof. Gerhard Hausladen and his research group at the TU München, a first modeling step will be absolved. After analysis of the current state of the investigated districts, future concepts will be made increasing efficiency and sustainability.

“…Every sustainable community would provide social amenities, infrastructure, safety, and privacy to enhance the residents' quality of life that meet their needs and demands. The selection of location is vital to sustainable residential housing development because it affects human development and livability (Murseli & Isufi, 2014) since the location influences the sustainability of the residential and market price, social amenities, accessibility, and available services require more attention (Ahmad & Matori, 2016;Masri et al, 2016). The parameters of the built environment, specifically for the dwelling area, such as services offered, commercial areas, accessibility, and other amenities, have to be balanced in relation to the walking distance and travel durations from one location to another during the decision-making process (Chen, 2014;van Maarseveen et al, 2018).…”

The demand for sustainable housing is rising because of the rapid increase in Malaysia's population. Housing areas with sufficient amenities, services, and accessibility contribute to people's having a higher quality of life since those amenities might satisfy their desire for a particular location. This study intends to identify significant parameters, weightage, and sustainable residential areas based on selected parameters. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Geographical Information System (GIS) platform were used to assess the appropriate parameters and locations with adequate facility supply. To determine the suitability of residential areas in Ipoh, Perak, the weighted overlay approach was performed using the computed value and scale of the parameters. A site suitability map is created using three separate levels with low, medium, and high suitability areas. The most important parameters were found to be health and social care, while industrial areas, social amenities, and recreational places were found to be less important. With this outcome, purchasers could discover the most important regions that fulfil their demands by making the decision to invest in the right residential property.

“…Vulnerability mapping and geospatial analysis may be employed to discover vulnerable regions because most of these characteristics have spatial dimensions (Shen, 2000). For this type of study, a Geographic Information System (GIS) can be employed, which is defined as "a computer system for recording, storing, querying, analyzing, and presenting geographic data" (Murseli and Isufi, 2014). The data that is geo-referenced and processed in a way that allows a decision-maker to make decisions is the information employed in GIS.…”

Dried fish manufacturing is a famous cottage industry in Sri Lanka. Due to various natural and manmade reasons, their locations are not set up in sustainable ways. As a result, industry locations have become more vulnerable. Therefore, hurdles are there to sustainably expanding this cottage industry. So, the industry's novelty and the enormous number of issues experienced have yet to be discovered or solved via research study. Therefore, the current study intends to conduct GIS-based vulnerability analysis of the fish drying cottage industry by identifying the socioeconomic, environmental, and industry-related backgrounds of existing manufacturers and the industry, challenges faced by manufacturers, and vulnerable sites in the village using geo-spatial analysis. The case study focuses on Kudawella of Tangalle local authority, in the southern province of Sri Lanka. Qualitative analysis was used to identify the existing situation using a structured questionnaire survey and descriptive analysis was performed on the obtained information. The constraints were revealed by a content analysis of qualitative data acquired from a judgemental sample via semi-structured and unstructured interviews. Furthermore, the relative positions of the cottages were determined using OpenStreet Map and the absolute coordinates of a sample of 27 cottages gathered using GPS. A Weighted Overlay Analysis was performed using Arc Map 10.8 to create a Vulnerability Index Map to identify vulnerable locations for the industry while taking nine socioeconomic and environmental parameters. The outcome indicated four categories of vulnerability: severe, moderately severe, moderate, and low vulnerability, with 4.13% of the village falling into the severely susceptible category. The index map assists relevant authoritative organisations in making industrial decisions to attain sustainability based on the amount of risk and underlines the importance of institutional and individual decision-making systems
