A Decision Support System has been developed for the waterways between the Port of New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico. The system is implemented for the IBM Personal Computer using the Lotus 1-2-3 applications software. Information about the port can be retrieved using a sequence of menu selections or by going directly to the appropriate worksheet. Each worksheet is programmed to provide ready answers to anticipated questions. The output from the system can be in a variety of visual, printed or file formats. The methodology for providing ready access to information relevant to port planning and management developed for the Port of New Orleans can readily be adapted for other ports.
