Availability of an ArcGIS Wetland Restoration Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS) Tool

Abstract

This technical note announces the availability of a tool developed by the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC). The tool and accompanying user's guide can be used to create an ArcGIS-based wetland restoration spatial decision support system (SDSS) tool. An SDSS is useful for evaluating and comparing multiple areas across a large study area, and works by scaling and combining multiple, spatially explicit data layers within a geographic information system (GIS). The purpose of this tool and user's guide is to help those involved in wetland restoration planning create their own area-specific, GIS-based wetland restoration SDSS, which can be used to identify and evaluate potential wetland restoration sites at a landscape or watershed scale.
