- Adapting the software to make it possible to easily include also the output of other mechanistic
- Afforestion and deforestation options should be included in the management options
- An iterative process of presenting results to subject matter experts enabled them to better
- An optimisation module comparing alternative scenarios based on multi-criteria analysis should be
- Analysis at the landscape level allowed the integration of concerns about multiple resources as well
- As the core of forest DSS are models describing the development of trees and stands (growth and
B
D
- DSS allowed to explain better some technical concepts to non-professional stakeholders
- DSS can help in varying the treatment according to more than one forest function
- DSS helped document and apply decision criteria consistently, and therefore produced a more
- Decision criteria beyond the state of the ecosystem (for example, social values fire risk, economic
- Despite the widely use and acceptance of the DSS there was still a lack of expertise to
E
- Embedding a DSS in a GIS software allows obtaining information at different spatial scales using the
- Enabling the analyses of several ecosystem services
- Enabling the analyses of several ecosystem services (timber and non-timber resources) in one and the
- End user engagement throughout the development and deployment cycle is very important
- Enlarge the decision space by generating a large set of potential management alternatives
- Enlarged decision space
F
- Forest managers have to analyze how their forest management interventions effect the landscape
- From a management perspective, to avoid the complication of testing something new, the models used
G
- Getting joint funding from both the forest and environmental sectors can be a successfull for
- Group participation with knowledgeable people is a good way to ensure that the decision hierarchy is
- Growth and Yield models are a key component of forest DSS
I
- Interpretative case studies can help reduce the gap between research and practice
- It is necessary to know which data will be use as variables in the models before designing the DSS
- It should be possible to specify the rotation time of a species not only by age but also by target
- It would have been better to involve some end users at earlier stages of the system development
L
M
- Metodology and results are transparent and easy-to-share to non-expert stakeholders
- Model building was rapid, it was assembling the data that took by far the most time
- Modular approach helpful in assisting industry uptake
- Multiple DSS are often needed to meet complex needs
N
- Need for new models for the later use of a tool
- Need of a moderator function
- Need of flexibilization of analytical tools - no overdesigned tool that provides too much features for the use
- Neighbourhood interrelations should be included in the generator
O
P
- Pareto Frontier Techniques are useful for multi-criteria forest management planning
- Plan the system architecture based on a broad view of future possibilities
- Projection of stand development increases knowledge base
- Provide a simple version of the DSS, which new users can try out and learn quickly
- Provide missing help-documentation service
- Provide procedures and structure for complete data flow
- Providing procedures and structure for data flow from selection of field sample, performing field
R
- Regular ongoing engagement helped maintain interest of users
- Requirement of specialized skills can discourage some potential users
- Results are always strongly dependent on the quality of the underlying data
- Running the DSS required special skills, therefore the local planning team required considerable
S
- SIPAFIT can act sometimes as a referee to settle arguments among experts, users and stakeholders
- SIPAFIT sub-systems have been useful in training activities, and can be very useful to explain and
- Spatial variation between regions led to the development of different regional models, which led to
- Stakeholder involvement
- Stakeholder involvement in DSS design
- Stakeholders contribution in ranking forest functions
- Students studying forest management planning procedures and processes were very useful product testers
T
T cont.
- The DSS usage enabled the planning team to measure the achievement of the restoration goals
- The ProgettoBosco working methodology, based on cooperation, successive approximations and
- The activation of an iterative process through periodical meetings permitted to all the stakeholders
- The adoption of the collaborative learning method made possible to gradually select the conceptual
- The analysis of the actor network interactions allowed to identify the criticalities to be solved in order to develop the collaborative process
- The analysis team used internal prototyping, which helped train the staff and identify possible
- The choice to develop the system in an Excel environment was based on the status of computer
- The definition of standardized and specific criteria for selecting and zoning forest compartment
- The development of large and enduring systems requires a long term approach
- The fact that ProgettoBosco is conceived according to the criteria and indicators of sustainable
- The kinds of DSS traditionally used to calculate timber harvest levels are now being used to model
- The scope of the modeling project can change significantly during the project
- The software did not provide much support for formatting of the outputs in a format that could be
- The tracing of the actor network supported the identification of the key actors influencing the collaborative DSS implementation and institutionalization
- The tracing of the current actor network interactions made the group realize that they need a different kind of stakeholders from what they previously thought
- The use of EMDS allowed the planning team to identify priority area for restoration treatments that
- The use of structured output (maps, tables and charts) makes the methodology and the results more
- The use of the DSS improved communication among the planning team by providing a framework of the
- The user has to be aware of the possibly large impact that the chosen land indicators and threshold
- The very easy user-friendly interface of the software and the clearness of method can be exploited
- Threshold values and weights used in a decision process have strong effect on the results
- To compare the current and the past quantitative-qualitative parameters of the forest, great effort
- To meet the needs of customer - the Forest Service - and to obtain satisfying results the
U
- Use of adequate DSS development methodology
- Use of the DSS has been considered successful by the participating organizations, even though it has
- Users preferred enhanced functionality rather than useability
- Using Actor Network Theory in the design stage can help in understanding the dynamism of the network
