GIS‐assisted waste management in a protected area

GIS‐assisted waste management in a protected area The problem of environmental management in a protected area has been examined in the paper. A methodological approach based on geographical information system (GIS) technology has been proposed in order to aid in all planning phases. The software tool has been illustrated and a case study has been presented with reference to a national park. Results show capabilities of the developed decision-support system in identifying and comparing technical-economical solutions compatible with protected area constraints. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Environmental Management and Health Emerald Publishing
