description According to the characteristics of waterway navigation safe routes selection, and considering the individual feelings and group benefits of information, as well as no-compensation information between indexes, this paper describes the safe rating of waterway navigation routes, and then puts forward an evaluation model of and method for waterway navigation safe route selection based on variable weight VIKOR. First of all, from the concept and connotation of grade assessment, this paper describes the safe rating of waterway navigation routes, so as to avoid confusing the two essential different problems of safe rating and ranking. Then, the evaluation indexes and membership function of the appropriate grade of the safe rating of waterway navigation route are constructed, and the weights of an evaluation index based on entropy are proposed. Secondly, a variable weight VIKOR evaluation model and a binary semantic evaluation method for the safe grading of waterway navigation safe routes are proposed. Finally, through case study and comparative analysis, the rationality and feasibility of the model and method proposed in this paper are illustrated. This model can better reflect the connotation and characteristics of the appropriate grade assessment of waterway navigation safe routes, and provides new approaches and methods to support the development and management of waterway navigation safe route selection.
