title = "Argument visualization and narrative approaches for collaborative spatial decision making and knowledge construction: A case study for an offshore wind farm project",
abstract = "A Geographic Information Systems (GIS) play a vital role in various applications associated with sustainable development and clean energy. In these applications, the GIS provides a capability to upload onsite geographical information collected by public into online maps. One of the major problems is how to make a decision for those reports. In this paper, we study two types of cognitive modes for decision making: argument and narrative reasoning.We investigate how various discussion representations, argumentation theoretical model, and reasoning modes of geo-graphics problems affect knowledge accumulation and argument quality. We conduct empirical tests on different groups of participants regarding their discussions on a particular offshore wind farm project as a case study. We have demonstrated that graph representation provides better results than threaded representation for collaborative work. We also illustrate that the argument theoretical model leads to reduce participants{\textquoteright} performance. Moreover, we conclude that there is no significant difference between narrative representation and graph representation in the participants{\textquoteright} performance to construct knowledge.",
