The initial system of GIRAS I, now operating in a production mode, was based upon a batch sequential in¬put processing subsystem leading to the storage of data in simple digital archives. Further, the manipulation of those archival files is accomplished by a grid composit¬ing system to permit the production of rudimentary, standardized statistical and graphic outputs for the early users of the program. Thus far, that system has been successfully utilized to input a large amount of land use data and associated environmental data. In ad¬dition, the system has been supporting an accelerating production of tabular and graphic data sets in response to requirements of State cooperative users.
