Internet Applications
EVS uses the Internet extensively to communicate and manage environmental information
Environmental projects often involve multiple stakeholders and substantial information management and communication needs. EVS makes extensive use of Internet technologies because the Internet provides cost-effective remote access to data and services.
EVS web sites and e-mail applications provide a variety of services and information to support technical program needs including:
- Database query, reporting and updating
- Geospatial information display and management
- Document repositories
- Project management services
- E-mail based notification systems
Application Areas
Since 1995, EVS has developed more than 70 web sites and e-mail applications in every major technical area in which it is active. Benefits to sponsors have included greater stakeholder involvement, simplified management processes, cost savings, and improved technical products.
