5. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSTIONS
The use of GIS technology in modelling for decision support
systems brings many new capabilities and commodities to the
planning process. The paper summarizes the various phases of
building the Education Decision Support System in MOE,
Jordan. It illustrates the success implementation of the planning
process taking many decision and projects based on such
technology. To merge geospatial database using all vector
layers is quite complex environment and is the scope of many
research projects. However, our experience and testing shows
that it can be done within our accuracy requirements of a map
