13.5 Conclusions
The Geodise PSE represents the product of a number of architectural decisions motivated by the design principles outlined in this document, and by the problem domain of EDSO. To develop a PSE that the engineer is able and willing to use, we believe that it is important to meet both the requirements and expectations of the engineer.
