摘要：

The warehouse site selection decision is not merely the question of choosing sites. It involves the comparison of the spatial characteristics of a market with the overall corporate and marketing goals of the firm. A geographic information system-aided process to the warehouse site selection decision is presented and the use of the presented process is demonstrated with a practical example. Various factors likely to affect customer service and costs are defined and subsequently integrated into an overall evaluation. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
