Sažetak
This paper systematically and clearly presents the research problem, that is, the selection of an optimum location for a nautical-tourism port in the Northern Adriatic. The paper also focuses on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as a method of multiple criteria analysis. Using the analysis method, the aim of this paper – the selection of an optimum location – has been defined. Pursuant to the established aim, criteria have been identified and assessed with the aid of expert opinions and the concrete situation at the location selected. AHP was the multiple criteria analysis method used in ranking alternative solutions.
Planning and selecting an optimum location for a port of nautical tourism are vital in improving the way nautical tourism is managed. To do this, the appropriate decision-solving procedures need to be applied. In problem solving, it is considered that the best progress can be achieved by improving the process by which solutions are selected. The procedure involves setting out basic goals, criteria and measures, and assessing the solutions identified
This article underlines the importance of applying multiple criteria analysis and using a multi-criteria model that contains the criteria and sub criteria for selecting an optimum location for a nautical-tourism port. The result of the study “Criteria for Selecting the Location for a Port of Nautical Tourism” conducted throughout 2006 and 2007, this model can be used to determine the most acceptable location in accordance with sustainable development principles.
