Abstract

"What if" is an interactive system based on maps. The system uses GIS information that has been previously prepared, or is being prepared, to provide the ground for ease and acceleration of the most important, time-consuming and difficult aspects of land-use planning.
This system is a complete program package that reduces planning tasks that would require weeks or even months to complete in the past, but can now be carried out by this system quickly and easily. This system is easy to use for political applications and GIS information, and provides outputs in the form of reports and maps easily understood by the user.
