Disclosed is a method and Geographic Information System (GIS) for creating a user's proximity model in accordance with a user's feedback. The GIS creates the user's proximity model using a Dempster-Shafer technique. The GIS initializes the user's proximity model upon initializing a fuzzy set with a fuzzy membership function. The fuzzy set includes a plurality of points scattered around a reference point. The GIS creates an intermediate model using the user's proximity model by selecting a group of points from the plurality of points. The GIS receives a user feedback on the intermediate model. The GIS adapts the fuzzy membership function based on the user feedback. The GIS then updates the user's proximity model based on the fuzzy membership function which is adapted on basis of the user feedback.
