Decision Support Tools for Water Quality Management

Decision Support System for the Elbe River Water Quality Management

A decision support system (DSS) for integrated river basin management of the German part of the Elbe river basin is currently under development, which involves taking account water quantity, chemical quality and ecological state of surface waters. The Elbe is one of the largest river basins in middle Europe having multiple land and water use demands. A hierarchical approach was developed to mee...

Trajectory Modeling Accuracy for Air Traffic Management Decision Support Tools

Future air traffic management (ATM) decision support systems (DSS) rely upon trajectory forecasting to adequately deliver benefits. These forecasts are subject to errors from a variety of sources. As the number and sophistication of ATM DSS capabilities grow, the interoperability between DSS will become more sensitive to the magnitude and variation in trajectory forecasting errors across DSS. T...

Educational and decision-support tools for asthma-management guideline implementation

Many international and national asthma guidelines are now available in large parts of the world, but they are not yet implemented appropriately. There is a gap between scientific evidence-based medicine and real clinical practice. Implementation of guidelines is highly complex. Special strategies are needed to encourage guideline-based, high-quality care. It is important to understand the conte...

Prediction Accuracy for Air Traffic Management Decision Support Tools

Air traffic automation depends on accurate trajectory predictions. Flight tests show that wind errors are a large source of error. Wind-field accuracy is sufficient on average, but large errors occasionally exist that cause significant errors in trajectory-prediction. A year long study was conducted to better understand the wind-prediction errors, to establish metrics for quantifying large erro...
