Abstract

The study aimed to identify factors influencing the selection of a new airport location. A systematic review of 16 relevant articles were identified using the PRISMA Flow diagram. The selection criteria were extracted and analyzed to determine their frequency of occurrence. The results revealed that the most frequent factor influencing airport location selection was distance to main transportation networks, appearing 10 times in the selected articles. On the other hand, distance to other airports was the least frequently mentioned factor, occurring only once. Environmental considerations, such as air and noise pollution, were the most prominent criteria, each occurring 11 times. In terms of topography, the slope of land emerged as the most frequently cited criterion, with 6 occurrences. Social criteria, particularly access to airport facilities, were mentioned 5 times. Regarding safety and risk, conflict with air corridors, distance from faults, and distance from water streams were the most considered factors, each appearing 4 times.
