Then, the novel spherical fuzzy AHP-integrated spherical WASPAS methodology is structured in a fuzzy environment, and the petrol station location selection problem is evaluated with this methodology. In this study, a real application is presented for Istanbul to show the applicability of the proposed methodology. Subsequently, a sensitivity analysis is performed to explain and analyze the proposed methodology results. Finally, the results are presented and discussed with future directions.
