  • Abstract
    Combining a geographic information system´s spatial analysis functions and comprehensive fuzzy sets lets researchers evaluate and analyze the ecological suitability of olive tree cultivation in Sichuan, China. Past years´ experience in olive planting and amelioration data that considers climate, soil, and topography aided this analysis, which produced results that will guide future olive cultivation in the region.
