Abstract:

The RIA Program is designed to perform selected geographic type environmental analysis by use of a BASE DATA FILE that is a grid cell data bank. The BASE DATA FILE that contains the grid cell representation of all resource, land use, and other grid data needed to perform the desired analysis must have been previously created and available for access by the RIA program. RIA can perform four major types of analyses and generate computer printer graphic displays or tabulations of the analysis results. The five major options referred to as packages of the RIA program are 1 Distance Determination Package 2 Impact Assessment Package 3 Locational Attractiveness Package 4 Coincident Tabulation Package and 5 Mapping Package.
