The tasks involved in this phase are
1. Identification of stakeholders
- It means finding out who are affected by the decisions, and who should therefore be involved.
2. Knowledge gathering and sharing
- It means e.g. that some participative GIS/KM tools are used for gathering local or expert knowledge and sharing it with other stakeholders.
- Participatory GIS could be used for locating certain (socially, culturally or ecologically) valuable places (e.g. Tyrväinen et al. 2007).
- MCA tools could be used for evaluating the effect of a given option of forestry on the criteria and indicators.
3. Formulating criteria
- It means e.g. cognitive mapping tools that can be used to clarify the goals the stakeholders have (E.g. Tikkanen et al. 2007)
4. Definition of criteria
- It means, for instance, that measurable indicators for the criteria are defined (e.g. Mendoza & Prabhu)
5. Eliciting preferences
- It can mean using MCA tools for evaluating the criteria and indicators (Kangas et al. 2008).
