Spatial decision support system for home-delivered services

  • Carnegie Mellon University

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We present a spatial decision support system for the non-profit sector, designed to assist planning in the area of home-delivered services such as meals on wheels. Using data collected from existing programs, current and forecasted demographic data, and a set of algorithmic tools, we provide a system for evaluating current meals on wheels facilities, and for making incremental facility location decisions that satisfy coverage and equity requirements.
