چکیده

The National Agricultural Decision Support System (NADSS) is a web based geospatial decision support system used to aid producers and decision makers in analyzing and effectively mitigating the effects of drought. The NADSS application is unique in its implementation, containing web-based implementations of commonly utilized drought indices including the Newhall Simulation Model (NSM), Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), and the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI). By combining information (generated by the indices) and climate and agricultural data, NADSS is able to define parameters to analyze risks associated with drought. This report outlines a demonstration of the web implementation of these tools and the value they provide.
