Forest DSS
Existing case studies
- Gordon-2006-Decision support systems for forest biodiversity management_A review of tools and an analytical-deliberative framework for understanding their successful application
- Sean Gordon's dissertation. Chapters 7-10 contain 4 indepth case studies of DSS use for forest biodiversity issues in the USA. Tests cases against specific theories of social and technical success factors.
- Gordon-2007-A guide to decision making and decision models for forest biodiversity
- Appendix A contains 15 brief case studies of DSS use for forest biodiversity issues in the USA. Selected to describe use by different ownership classes.
- Pretzsch-2002-The single tree based stand simulator SILVA
- Mainly a description of the system itself. Although it doesn't discuss actual use, it does devote sections to factors that should affect its usability (potential applications, suitability for forest planners).

- in chapter 60 - Reynolds et al. provide a comprehensive overview of existing Decision-Support Systems in Forest Management
Potential case studies
EMDS
- The use of EMDS in the assessment of spotted owl disperal habitat for the state of Washington, USA (personal experience and contacts of Sean Gordon)

- Various other EMDS possibilities on Wikipedia

- Comparing DSS for utilization of forest resources for energy use
- Comparing DSS for Sustainable Forest Management
update in Leuven 09.11.2011:
- To identify computer based KM tools which support the processes of knowledge identification and generation, knowledge storage and transfer in the context of the topic identifying adaption strategies for Climate change.
- To consider common issues of participation processes and Knowledge Management processes in DSS approaches for the formulation of the FORSYS guidelines
- Gap analysis for identifying the KM techniques applied in developing DSS and proposing those which could be used
- Gap analysis for identifying KM techniques currently implemented in DSS based on the documentation in the CR
Non-forestry DSS case studies
- Univ. Redlands Spatial Decision Support Portal
- Short case descriptions (Gordon-2007 cases plus a few others) tagged with ontological concepts (tools used, application domain, decision problem types).
