An Environmental Decision Support System for Water Issues in the Oil Industry
Abstract
Many decision makers are hindered in their daily work by
“un-integrated” systems which can force them to move
data around between tools which are only more or less compatible.
Because environmental models play an important role in environmental
decision support systems, the integration of models into
user-friendly integrated decision support systems is essential to
the support of such users. This paper presents a decision support
system supporting users involved in the protection of the
Coatzacoalcos River in Mexico near the largest agglomeration of
petrochemical installations in Mexico, which are operated by the
Mexican oil company Petroleos Mexicanos. At the same time, the area
is densely populated and important for agriculture.The system was built in a collaboration of the Mexican Petroleum
Institute, the Environmental Informatics Group, and cismet GmbH and
is based on cismet’s geospatial application suite called
cids. It integrates several
tools and models into a holistic, user-centered application.
