Abstract

Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) Methods provide an instrumental tool for the investigation of current decision-making procedures. Such a decision-making problem is the process of determining the most suitable position for rainwater harvesting systems. In this short communication, TOPSIS method is suggested as a sample Multi-Criteria Decision-Making method and the main campus of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University is used as an application of the method for this problem. TOPSIS method results show that the Student Life Center Roof is found as the most suitable location with a similarity coefficient of S_1^*=0.6789 also results show that Multi-Criteria Decision-Making methods can provide a fast and practical technique for determining the position for rainwater harvesting systems in university campuses.
