AEZWIN
An interactive multiple-criteria analysis tool for land resources apraisal (CD-ROM)
FAO Land and Water Digital Media Series, Vol. 15

AEZWIN stands for AEZ for Windows. This report, previously issued as World Soil Resources Report No. 87, presents the recently developed Windows-based software package for agro-ecological zoning analysis at the national and subnational levels, including models for land suitability and land productivity assessment and a user interface to multi-objective land use optimization. The software package allows models to be generated interactively corresponding to various scenarios of land use and then to be analysed using modular multiple-criteria model analysis tools. The package is illustrated by the example of a detailed Kenya AEZ study.
