Integrated spatial information system has been developed to support agricultural planning and natural resource management on the highland with an emphasis on the areas covered by the Royal Project Foundation's development centers in the upper north of Thailand. The system integrates spatial biophysical and socioeconomic information and allows a user to access them through an interface which employ the capability of a customized Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software, ArcView 3.1 together with Avenue language and Dialog designer module. The system is operated under Windows environment with Thai graphic user interface. The users can display and compare important characteristics of all development projects area or selected development centers according to the following groups 1) general administrative information, 2) socio-economic data, 3) agricultural activities promoted by Royal Project Foundation, their products and values, and 4) key indices representing sustainability and environmental risk as the results of present land use systems. Detailed spatial information such as large scale satellite images, aerial photographs, land use changes, soil erosion important social characteristics are also available for Nong Hoi and Mae Hae. All information can be queried and shown as maps and tables. This paper aims to illustrate the use of the system to analyze and reveal key emergent properties from the interactions among different components of the highland agricultural systems in the target areas.
