Abstract

Urban green infrastructure plays a significant role in sustainable development and requires proper land management during planning. This study develops a valuation model for urban green infrastructure in land management, focusing on Zagreb’s 17 city districts. The fuzzy AHP method was used to calculate the weighting coefficients for a suitable set of criteria, and the TOPSIS method was used to select the priority city districts for implementing green infrastructure. The research results are relevant to decision makers, who can utilize them to prioritize areas for the development and implementation of green infrastructure. The green infrastructure index calculated in this study can be compared with other spatial and land data for effective spatial planning.
