Data stored inside Personal Geodatabase use Dynamic Formulas
Multiple maps (scenarios) managed within a single document.
Desktop GIS, spreadsheet and presentation tool in one
Set of Decision Tools ready to model base (eg. MCE, Build-out)
Operates as two extensions to
SiteBuilder 3D

5. Community Viz
participatory decision support tool for planners
supports all decision phases
can support both individual or group decision process
manipulates both spatial and non-spatial data
can be rapdily adopted (just-in-time) to different situations
allows for learning and teaching
can operate on different levels of abstraction
supports defining, evaluating, and tracking the performance
of many alternatives
evaluates impacts of alternattives with user-defined
assumptions, indicators and bar charts in real-time
user can readily define or modify assumptions, indicators and
customizable bar charts white runing analysys in real-time
6. Decision components of Scenario 360
Data are inputs that consist of map layers
and tables.
Assumptions are user-defined variable
inputs
An analysis can contain one or more
alternative Scenarios, alternative viewpoints
of an analysis. Each scenario hass distinct
input settings and outputs, but identical
calculation rules.
Dynamic Attributes are based on formula,
automatically updated as any changes are
made in the analysis.
7. Decision components of Scenario 360
Indicators the objectives or desired outcomes
(impacts) that prompt the need for a decision.
They are calculated referening data sets
anywhere in the scenario. Used to provide an
overall measurement for a scenario (as
opposed to an attribute, which is an individual
characteristic of a map feature).
Alerts Constraints: requirements which all
viable alternatives must satisfy without fail
Charts a graphical way of looking at
indicators or assumptions.
Reports HTML summary the inputs,
calculations, and outputs of scenarios.
8. Community Viz
Interactive Spatial Spreadsheet
Scenario 360 handles spatial data the same way a spreadsheet Microsoft
Excel® handles numerical data, so it can be called a “spatial
spreadsheet”
Object attributes can be specified by formulas
Attributes can therefore be recalculated (react) in response to changes in the
map or manipulation of external assumptions
PRZYKŁAD:
WATER USE = SPACE * CAPITA PER SQ METER * LITERS PER CAPITA
X= X
9. Community Viz
Interactive Spatial Spreadsheet
Writing formulas requires no programming. Simply
answer the step-by-step questions in the Formula
Wizard, or, for more advanced users, customize your
models with the powerful Formula Editor and any of
more than 60 functions.
10. Community Viz
Interactive Spatial Spreadsheet
Formulas can be based on complex logical expresions (if then else), trygonometric
functions, spatial operators, etc.

21. Case of Landuse Planning
Plannners are planing very little, they rather prepare
administrative documents for local communities, cities
The life-cycle of plans is shorter than it's preparation timeThe life-cycle of plans is shorter than it's preparation time
Plans are trials and errors or records of taken activityPlans are trials and errors or records of taken activity
They become problems very soon after it's acceptance,They become problems very soon after it's acceptance,

…… space is full of actors, discontinous, complex or chaoticspace is full of actors, discontinous, complex or chaotic
Due to uncertainity, plans are little formalized, flexible,Due to uncertainity, plans are little formalized, flexible,
internally incoherent (are also a part ofinternally incoherent (are also a part of GI InfrastructureGI Infrastructure))

22. So How to Plan?
with GIS and PGIS
Plannners can inform citiziens, decision-makers about
various impact of plans – make good (usefull) analysys,
impact of plans can be hidden, serious, invisible and
distant in space and time
Plannners can engage citizens and help them to
understand (simplicity) how they can bring benefit to
community
Planners should preserve continuity of planning, when
forecasting is very difficult, plans become self-updating,
self monitoring dynamic what if scenarios
Planners should care about a big picture, coordination
and integration of different levels, taking into account
local context and values

30. Community Viz
participatory decision support tool for planners
is adding value on existing spatial data infrastructure
represents or activates planning knowlegde that transforms data
into information needed in decision process
helps to optimize and supports multicriteria choice, but can help
convince, motivate and inspire participants of decision process
“sharpens ones mind” - not only software but a culture of work
