Overview
The program of work between USC’s Earth Sciences and Resources Institute (ESRI-USC) and the NRCS of South Carolina began in 1998. The intention was that ESRI-USC would assist the NRCS in the development and implementation of a GIS-based Decision Support System (DSS) to promote the sound planning of conservation systems, especially those concerning the utilization of animal manure. The use of spatial analysis components within the GIS model would be to develop a map showing the suitability of lands for the siting of buildings, lagoons and land application of manure. The data to be used in the spatial analysis component would include underlying environmental data (including surface water quality, leachability and soil erosion indices), regulatory requirements and economic constraints associated with hauling costs of the manure.
