Environmental Early Warning Systems (EEWS) data input manual

A concept description of data input methodologies is provided in support of the Environmental Early Warning Systems (EEWS) as developed by the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (USA-CERL). EEWS is an interactive computer system designed to give planners and decision-makers a way to quickly find potential environment-related problems associated with proposed changes in troop strength, mission, facilities, natural resource management, and land use. The system is intended to help managers during the earliest stages of Army planning and is not a substitute for current planning methods and formal environmental assessments. To support EEWS' capabilities, large amounts of data must be loaded into the computer. This report describes the methods for inputting information to the EEWS data base, gives examples of manual input by a data-loading specialist, and describes automated loading procedures by a systems maintainer. This information is intended to facilitate an understanding of input methodology by data loaders. (Author).
