A prototype of an on-line inventory of computer programs for environmental studies available at the Laboratorio di Informatica Territoriale ed Ambientale (LITA), Politecnico di Milano, is presented. The main purpose of this software base is to overcome some of the difficulties encountered is disseminating to a relatively wide range of potential users all the informations concerning programs already available. Each program description is stored in a structured, but easy to read format in order to allow a fast screening. The prototype software base has been implemented on a personal computer, using a commercial relational DMBS. Furthermore, a user-friendly interface, which has some intelligent features, has been designed in order to ease the use of the system.

A prototype of an on-line inventory of computer programs for environmental studies available at the Laboratorio di Informatica Territoriale ed Ambientale (LITA), Politecnico di Milano, is presented.

Each program description is stored in a structured, but easy to read format in order to allow a fast screening.
