Web Spatial Decision Support System

Main Goals

• It is intended to develop a Web Spatial Decision Support System (WebSDSS) based on

spatial data produced by Best Research Line;

• The WebSDSS will be available for researchers through an authentication service for

providing a secure access to the data;

• The WebSDSS will be divided in two main components:

1. Show and present the spatial data;

2. Analysis of spatial data;

Fig. 1 – WebSDSS Characteristics (Sugumaran, R., Degroote, J., 2010).

• Geographic information is crucial to decision making by all manner of

organizations. It is estimated that 80% of data used by managers and decision

makers is geographically related (Worrall, 1991).

Future Works

• Improve the open source platform with new tools.

• Use the ArcGis platform to develop the Geoprocessing & analytical processing.

• Develop a system that provides support to spacial decisions.
