Abstract

In this paper we first compare planning support system (PSS) with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS), then summarize the typical achievements about PSS in recent 20 years. We also make a critical judgment about the three main PSS software in Western Countries, namely: What if？, CommuntyViz and INDEX. The comprehensive reviews about PSS will contribute the deeper understanding on PSS and promote its wider applications in China.
