1. 1. An Analysis of Spatially-enabled Mobile Decision Support Systems in a Collaborative Decision-Making Environment

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Mark Overton; [2022]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; multi criteria decision analysis; mobile decision support system; route optimization; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : The effectiveness of decision-making processes has been enhanced by integrating multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) and geographic information system (GIS) methods to solve more complex spatial problems that were not possible to solve using conventional GIS methods. A spatial decision support system (SDSS) supports various stakeholders in the decision-making process, by processing data using GIS-MCDA methods. READ MORE
