MCAS-S version 3.2
The Multi-Criteria Analysis Shell for Spatial Decision Support (MCAS-S) is a tool to view and combine mapped information. MCAS-S can inform spatial decision making and help with stakeholder engagement and communication. MCAS-S is powerful and easy to use. GIS (geographic information system) programming is not required, removing the usual technical obstacles to non-GIS users.

MCAS-S projects are: • transparent - you can see all the inputs used to meet an objective and how these are combined • flexible - you can use MCAS-S to compare options and explore trade-offs. You can use your own input data • fast - you can immediately see changes to your objective when any input or combination method changes. The new version 3.2 has: • improved performance • a user guide incorporated into the software • live links to metadata • more options for processing and analysing time series data • simpler options for labelling and classifying data inputs.

MCAS-S 3.2 is made freely available with the support of the MCAS-S development partners: ABARES, the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage, Barry Consulting, the Australian Collaborative Land Use and Management Program, the National Environmental Research Program Landscapes and Policy Hub at University of Tasmania and the Terrestrial Ecosystems Research Network.
