Abstract:

EMDS (Ecosystem Management Decision Support) version 1.0 is an application framework for knowledge based decision support of environmental assessments.

          The system integrates state-of-the-art geographic information system (GIS) and knowledge based reasoning technologies in the Microsoft Windows environment to provide a novel analytical tool that is powerful but easy to use.

          Version 1.0 of EMDS is far from a complete decision support system for the full adaptive management process of ecosystem management. However, it does provides a solid foundation upon which we are continuing to build a more comprehensive system.

          Version 1.0 currently provides support for:

          1. Constructing knowledge bases that describe logical relations among ecosystem states and processes of interest in an assessment
          2. Processing the resulting knowledge base to get a geographic assessment of ecosystem states and processes at the level of landscape features
          3. Evaluating the influence of missing data
          4. Prioritizing new data acquisition in light of data influence
          5. Basic project management.
