Abstract :
Evaluation for urban sustainable development is very significant to improve the future development of urban. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is very suitable for evaluation of urban sustainable development. In the study, AHP is applied to evaluate urban sustainable development. On the basis of analyzing the evaluation indexes, evaluation model for urban sustainable development is constructed based on AHP. And we take Zhangye city as an example to study the evaluation performance of AHP. The result of the urban sustainable development is ¿middling¿ and the experimental results indicate the effectiveness and correctness of the proposed method.
