Abstract

The manager needs tools for assistance in planning and interpreting monitoring systems. We are building a system that designs sampling programs by interpreting data about Gypsy Moth, stand condition and management objectives. The system prioritizes areas within the management unit within budgetary constraints and defines the areas to be monitored. The system proposes monitoring procedures to guarantee an effective monitoring program. These tasks are accomplished by the following modules in the GypsES system: The Egg Mass Sampling Designer (EMSD), the Pheromone Trapping System Designer (PTSD), and the Defoliation Projector (DP).
