Construction of a knowledge based portal for agribusiness

J. Havlíček, L. Dömeová, I. Tichá
Czech University of Agriculture, Prague, Czech Republic

Virtual portal (VIPO) is designed to provide users with a single-point access to information, and tools to support their decision-making. VIPO illustrates the best practice presented in terms of case studies coded along three dimensions: field, domain and objectives. The second major source of knowledge is based on software packages made available to users including tutor support. The third part of the portal provides useful links to the existing databases which have the potential to facilitate decision making in agribusiness. All three pillars of the VIPO are complemented by on-line consultancy services.

Keywords: virtual portal, benchmarking, best practice, knowledge base, knowledge unit, case study, decision making support
