Building a decision support system: important recommendations to consider | CONSTRUIRE UN OUTIL D'AIDE À LA DÉCISION : comment mettre toutes les chances de son côté ?

International audience

Inglés. Technical, economic and environmental management tools have been developed to support the pig sector. Currently, automats, sensors and biomarkers make it possible to monitor the activity and performance of animals at individual and group levels. The huge amount of information gathered allows decision support tools (DST) to be developed to help understand production systems and how to optimise their functioning. DST can be designed for specific use in research or for wider dissemination to operators in the sector. INRAE and IFIP have been developing sensors, models and DST for many years and many objectives, with various levels of success. In the Digiporc think tank, a study was conducted to create guidelines for developing DST based on the experience gained from these previous projects. Seven examples were selected, and interviews were conducted with the DST project leader, and when possible, with a partner involved at several stages of the development and an end-user. Analysis of the interviews made it possible to identify several necessary steps. Projects must bring together a multidisciplinary consortium and involve UX (User Experience) professions to co-build DST with end-users. In addition to defining the objectives and content, it is essential to consider in advance the user interface of the DST to develop and its long-term future, which are often underestimated. For future DST, other issues will concern the quality of the data and the methods used to transfer them from sensors.

Francés. L'UMT Digiporc associe INRAE, l'Institut Agro Rennes-Angers et l'IFIP pour mutualiser leurs compétences et développer une culture commune autour de la data : acquisition et qualité des données, méthodes de traitement et d'analyse, outils d'aide à la décision (OADs). Un travail a été mené pour profiter de l'expérience acquise lors de la création des OADs par les partenaires de l'UMT. L'objectif est de proposer un guide au développement des futurs OADs pour améliorer leur efficacité et leur impact.
