Why bother
with tools?
• Tools don’t eliminate complexity but they can help deal with it
• Tools can: ▫ Help incorporate science into
decision making
▫ Help explore range of management scenarios and social and ecological outcomes
▫ Help you do things faster

An Example of a Google
“My Maps” Application...
Starting Simple: Online Mapping and “Mashups”
Disclaimer: No real data was used in the creation of this
map. It is NOT for planning purposes, or really any purpose
whatsoever…

For the Serious DIY: Toolkits
• Planning projects have diverse needs
and issues
• Generally not a single, one-size-fits-all
tool available
• Still, there are many tools that can
address parts of your needs, SO….
I built my toolkit in just
one weekend!
Linking groups of tools through an interactive process
gives the flexibility to address an almost unlimited
number of issues, with existing tools.

Things to consider...
• Know what kind of analyses you need to guide
you in the planning process.
• Make sure the tool is integrated into your
planning process.
• Know the tools limitations.
• Understand data and technical needs of the
tools.
• Assess staff capacity to run and maintain.
• Do you need an external service provider?
• Ask lots of questions first. Seek out advice from
those with experience using tool.
• Maintain a healthy skepticism.
