A GIS-Based Decision-Support Tool for Integrated Water Resources Management in the Middle Olifants River System. GI_Forum|GI_Forum 2015 – Geospatial Minds for Society|

Abstract

We describe qualitative planning and decision support for Integrated Water Resource Management. The underlying method assesses the contamination risk of water resources on a quaternary catchment level, in order to identify hot-spot areas with high problem intensity and with a priority call for action. The method has been fully automated with the help of the Disy Cadenza workbench. The results have been made available to decision makers through a WebGIS (Cadenza Web) and through a Tablet-GIS (Cadenza Mobile) for offline usage
