Dataset for Analysis of Bioregional Development Scenarios in Latvia

The AHP method was applied to identify and evaluate the criteria influencing the suitability of different bioregional development scenarios across Latvia’s regions, determining the relative importance of social, economic, ecological, and cultural dimensions through expert assessments and multi-criteria analysis.

The dataset reflects the pairwise comparison judgments provided by six experts. The data were collected to assess the importance of criteria and sub-criteria when evaluating three bioregion development scenarios in Latvia: the Broad Integration Scenario, the Conservative Scenario, and the Culture and Tourism Scenario. The dataset includes individual expert files containing each expert’s complete pairwise comparison matrices based on Saaty’s 1–9 scale, as well as the corresponding normalized values for all comparisons.
