    A GIS-Aided frequency planning tool for terrestrial broadcasting and land mobile services

    Radio provides an important technology for emergency preparedness and emergency response. It not only offers rapid communication for emergency workers within the disaster area, but also affords the means of disseminating early warning of disasters and advice on how to respond to the public, and a means of monitoring of events and follow-up work in the wake of a disaster. Effective telecommunications are thus a vital part of emergency planning and response (Cate 1994, DHA 1995, Mulilis 1995, Zimmerman 1997). How well radio-based systems work, however, depends on a range of factors, including their geographic coverage, their population coverage, their field strength and their received power level. All these factors are highly dependent upon terrain. Moreover, due to the growing demands on the radio-frequency spectrum, there is a need to improve spectrum management techniques. The increase in the shared use of spectrum among administrations requires the use of more complex analysis methods. The efficient solution of spectrum managementproblems depends upon data storage and analysis capabilities, andconsequently requires the application of computer-aided techniques for data management and frequency assignment.

    The problem of efficient utilization of the radiofrequency spectrum is becoming more complex due to the increasing demands on the spectrum, which is a limited natural resource. If this natural resource is to be used efficiently, administrations need to use advanced Automated Spectrum Management Systems (ASMS) which would facilitate national spectrum management and monitoring, coordination among administrations and notification to International Telecommunication Union (ITU). This paper presents some of the spectrum engineering analysis and planning tools of the National Frequency Management System (NFMS) as part of the ASMS which has been developed for the administration of Turkey. This system includes a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) to support a database containing frequency assignment data, licence holder data and equipment characteristics data. The software is integratedwith a Geographic Information System (GIS) and it has the capability of using digital terrain data and geographic data
