Abstract

Three conditions render the use of standard methodologies inappropriate in solving location-allocation problems. This paper presents one alternative method for assigning an emergency aircraft to one of three hospitals in northern Chile when standard approaches are not suitable. Graph analyses and the demographic potential measures are used in the case presented. The main advantages of this alternative approach are its computational ease and the use of more than one method.
