The development of open-source GIS and DSS was best fit for modeling, monitoring, and estimating agriculture water demands, which is more than 80% of water demands in Egypt. The developed DSS can Compute the water consumption of different scenarios for cropping pattern, based on different objectives, and taking into account the fluctuation in the available water resources in Nasser Lake.
