Abstract
One of the effective items to reduce time for arriving fire fighters to place of event is determining the optimal location of fire stations. Ranking can define the best location of a fire station through the available options. The case of this study is the district ten of Tehran municipality. That is the smallest district of Tehran municipality in terms of size and is highest in terms of density, and population is quadruple the standard and twice the average density in Tehran. This research introduces a new ranking technique called the “Fibonacci Sequence Technique”, then the results of this new technique are compared to the TOPSIS method. In addition to the standard criteria of 6430, new criteria have been introduced for the location of fire stations. The results show that the ranking with the Fibonacci sequence technique is consistent with the TOPSIS method. It validates the Fibonacci sequence technique. Also, the new criteria get a high score in the evaluation by experts, which validates the new criteria.
