A Software Architecture for Distributed Geospatial Decision Support Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The National Agricultural Decision Support System (NADSS) is a joint project with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The initial focus of the NADSS project is to improve the quality and accessibility of drought related knowledge, information, and data for drought risk management. At the core of the NADSS project is a software architecture for distributed geospatial decision support systems that consists of four distributed layers: the data layer, the information layer, the knowledge layer, and the presentation layer. This work presents that architecture as well as the benefits and impact of the architecture and the NADSS project.

متن کاملDevelop a Spatial Decision Support System based on Service-Oriented Architecture
A Spatial Decision Support System refers to a computer system that assists decision-makers to generate and evaluate alternative solutions to semi-structured spatial problems through integrating analytical models, spatial data and traditional geoprocessing software so that individuals or groups can make feasible decisions (Armstrong 1993; Densham 1991; Malczewski 1996). It can allow easier decis...
متن کاملA software architecture and framework for Web-based distributed Decision Support Systems
This paper presents an integrated method to help design and implement a Web-based Decision Support Systems (DSS) in a distributed environment. First, a layered software architecture is presented to assist in the design of a Web-based DSS. The layered software architecture can provide a formal and hierarchical view of the Web-based DSS at the design stage. Next, a component-based framework is pr...
متن کاملA Distributed Software Architecture for a Rapid Geospatial Dataset Generation System
A wide variety of systems from many different fields use geospatial data to represent physical environments. These systems, and the data on which they operate, are not only becoming more complex, but they are increasingly being connected together. Although each system may be interested in very different aspects of the environment, the geospatial data they use must be consistent and correlated w...
