Information is the most important base for
environment protection, environment planning and environment policies.

Data Sources
- from highly frequent data series of one parameter (quantity) up to singular environment reports of some
hundred parameters (quality)
 
- online measurement, data collectors, digitised data values, files in different formats
 
- e.g. water stage and flow, chemical, biological values, meteorology, profiles (geodesy), etc.
 
Measurement Station Information
- stored in the database with timing information
 
- e.g. station name, coordinates, contact person, as well as public orders, maps, plans
 
User Access Rights
- in several privilege steps
 
- saves data before unwanted access
 
- protects from unintentional data changes
 
Data Access
- using the group system SPT: station, parameter, time
 
- cycle time: presentation and evaluation
 
- are independent from the data sampling interval
 
- easy access to data values
 
- presentation in dialogue boxes
 
- exportable to formatted lists
 - 
 
Editing
- numerical and graphical
 
- data series: move, turning around a point, copying, adding of values by interpolation and regression
with stations in the neighbourhood
 
- protocol of changes (who/when/why)
 
Import/Export Of Data Values
- freely formatable; manual and automatic import
 
- is fault tolerant and learnable against wrong spelled words
 
- MS-Excel and ASCII tables with data values are simply dragged into the application
 
- automatic testing during import (e.g. plausibility) and export (e.g. cell formatting at values with
boundary value violations, drinking water codex)
 
- XML for logically formatted exports
 
Graphics
- widely formatable, storable layout
 
- 2D-pictures (curve), 3D-surface
 
- colour intensity plots, isolines
 
Analysing Methods
   - independent from samping interval (e.g. only 700 values)
 
   - all results are output to a file, a graphic, or the database
 
   - Script language (C) for criteria and analysis
 
   
      - statistics (mean, sliding mean, minimum/maximum, variance, median)
 
      - regression (over time and data series), trend, histogram
 
      - arbitrary algebraic combining of data series (movable over time)
 
      - double sum, flow-duration curve
 
      - polygonalisation (data reduction)
 
      - method and plausibility check
 
   
The System Environement
   - User Desktop
 
   
     - The client is available for different operating systems, like MS-Windows (drag-and-drop, clipboard, DDE, OLE, context help).
 
     - adaptable to the user's needs
 
   
   - Database
 
   
     - runs on a server or on the same single workstation
 
     - e.g. OracleTM or MS-AccessTM
 
   
HIS'3D®  is an open system
   - expandable by new methods
 
   - extendable by new data sources and parameters
 
   - open to other packages, e.g.: MS-ExcelTM, MS-WordTM, ArcInfoTM, ArcViewTM
 
   - operating system (MS-WindowsTM NT/2000, Linux, Unix) and database independent
