land suitability analysis jc 03-30-2004

i've an Arcview 3 application (with Spatial Analyst) to do land
suitability analysis.

Major functions includes :-
- link to DBMS (to retrieve attributes for vector data)
- convert vector layers to grid (based on user-defined
classifications)
- perform grid analysis to get potential developable areas
- convert output grid to vector

Since i've to rewrite it with VBA if i were to upgrade to ArcGIS,
i am considering other cheaper options eg. Idrisi, Manifold...

Any suggest ?

Hi jc,

Check out ILWIS, which is a general-purpose GIS with remote sensing
capabilities, but it has a special module for land suitability analysis. To
a lesser degree this is also the case with IDRISI.

Cheers,
Patrick
