abstract = "One of the most crucial parts of solid waste management is
determining landfill site location, since multiple factors must be
considered and there is no universal formula. The main purpose of
this study is to make a worldwide systematic review of restriction
criteria used for landfill siting using geographic information
systems (GIS). Literature from the last years was thoroughly
assessed, and 45 restrictions found were classified as
environmental, economic, or social criteria. Our findings show
that although the number of articles published has increased
recently, they use on average seven restrictions, focusing mainly
on environmental over economic and social criteria. In our boxplot
statistical analysis, the most frequently used environmental
restrictions are the distance from surface water resources (used
in 77% of articles), slope (52%), and distance from groundwater
founts (40%), with a median of 300\ m, 20%, and
250\ m, respectively. The most frequently used economic
restrictions are distances from roads (60%), airports (40%), and
power lines (18%), with medians of 275\ m, 3000\ m,
and 75\ m, respectively. The most frequently used social
restrictions are distances from urban areas (45%), settlements and
residential areas (40%), and cultural heritage or archaeological
areas (23%), with medians of 1000\ m. This information
might help, on the one hand, governments to develop new
legislation about landfill siting and on the other hand,
decision-makers and scientists to produce new studies with
different restrictive scenarios.",
