Abstract

Around 7.6 billion people and millions of lives share
the same environment around the world. In order to ensure the prosperity of all
living beings on the earth, we need to manage effectively the whole area of the
environment we are in. The Brundtland Report on Environment and Development in
1987, the Rio Summit which took place in 1992, are the main activities that
have gained momentum for sustainable environmental management movements. Within
the context of sustainable development approach to managing human activities in
harmony with nature, natural, economic and social elements for sustainable
environmental management can be defined together as closely as possible in
order to minimize the pressure of human activities on the environment and to
prevent or mitigate potential future harmful effects should be addressed. Geographical
information sciences (GIS) are effective means of collecting, storing,
analyzing and interpreting data of various kinds. In this study, we will focus
on what GIS applications are used in the problem solving process of the
airports and what are the contributions of these applications to the airports
in the context of sustainable aviation management.
