An expert system/intelligent interface for acid rain analysis / by A.S. Fraser, D.A. Swayne, J. Storey and D.C.L. Lam.: En13-5/87-36E-PDF

"This paper describes the development (current and proposed) of a user workstation for the analysis of acid rain data. Data from several large governmental collections are uploaded to an IBM PC/AT. These data cover watershed aquatic chemistry, sensitivity to acidity, volume of water discharge from sub-regions, acid deposition, and various geographical parameters. The query language is map-based, and the analysis package uses a special-purpose spreadsheet. Several functions which are currently in use as discriminants in assessing the state of a particular watershed are built-in. Feedback from the analysis is via map coloring returned to the map subsystem through a built-in spreadsheet function. Various other graphical data exploration tools are provided"--Abstract.
