JUSTIFIED BY: LOW ATTENTION TO THE STUDY OF SDI USERS SDIS ARE LARGE AND COMPLEX WEB-BASED SYSTEMS SOCIAL AND TECHNICAL COMPONENTS

RESEARCH QUESTIONS:

WHO ARE THE USERS?

WHAT KIND OF SDIS DO THEY USE?

HOW DO THEY USE SDIS?

WHAT ARE THE CHANGES OVER TIME?

FOCUS ON SDIS USE

DATA COLLECTION: ONLINE SURVEYS IN 2012 AND 2017 BASED ON SIMILAR QUESTIONS

DATA ANALYSIS: SOCIAL NETWORK ANALYSIS

USERS CONSIDERED: PUBLIC BODIES WORKING FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT (GOVERNMENT SERVICE, LOCAL AUTHORITY, PUBLIC INSTITUTION...)
