Site Selection Process ƒ Regional Analysis Using GIS – Focus on attraction and aversion factors • Attraction – – – –

Desirable labor force figures Educational attainment targets Proximity to interstates, airports, universities Etc.

• Aversion – P Presence off union i activity ti it – Federal class one areas (national parks, national wilderness areas, national monuments) – Non-attainment areas for criteria pollutants p – Environmental (hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes) – Etc.

GIS Screening

Why GIS ƒ GIS is a quantitative tool that is useful in producing objective and defendable results ƒ Companies p are very y deadline driven – Time allotted for siting decisions has been compressed resulting in more use of GIS • Has influenced the p process of site selection – Communities are being evaluated without anyone knowing • Assists with determining areas of interest – Prior P i tto any consideration id ti off site it or building b ildi
