Abstract :
Applied Science Associates and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have developed customized interfaces for a suite of U.S Army Corps of Engineers models used to manage dredging and disposal operations and long-term dredged mound evolution. Each of four models, STFATE, MDFATE, LTFATE and SSFATE have been incorporated into custom ArcView(R) GIS extensions or stand-alone MapObjects(R) applications. The model systems are summarized
