WGI

Purposes:

  • Lessons learned !
  • Concrete impacts of DSS in SFM
  • Role of architecture and development process
  • Why DSS are not used ... ?

The set of case studies should cover ...

  • most important planning problem types (based on the number of countries mentioning them ?)
  • most (all) regions covered by COST FORSYS (group of countries)
  • different types of architectures and development methodologies
  • issues like interoperability, GUI (user friendliness)
  • successful and unsuccessful DSSs (what is successful ?)
  • most of the temporal and spatial scales

Single case study selection criteria:

  • Described in the WIKI (gold flag), presented in the country report
  • Possibility to come in contact with developers, researchers and users?

Selection of the case studies – what kinds of case studies ? how many ?

  • Main problem types > assessment > 3 case studies
  • Context, tradition, institutional setup (why DSS used, why not) > 2

WGIII

Criteria

  • Problem types should cover different countries in a wider geographical context (Non Cost countries, Cost Countries,…)
  • Screening of DSS is not enough – analyze certain hypothesis
  • What are the similarities/differences in the context of the applicationss (Who? How?)

Topics

  • Comparing DSS for Fire management
  • Comparing DSS for adapting forest management under CC
  • Comparing DSS for utilization of forest resources for energy use
  • Comparing DSS for Sustainable Forest Management

Other issues

  • Comparing DSS in most often described problem types (reduce dimensions)
  • Comparing the development processes for DSS (regional, forest, stand – strategic, tactical, operational)
  • Comparing the process of the DSS application from KM perspective (how the tools Expert Systems, Knowledge Mapping, Web Portal are used and benchmark with others)
