description The green stormwater infrastructure for urban area is an important, complicate and time-consuming task that relates to huge amount of information, data, domain law, expert knowledge and experience in terms of environmental protection. An expert system has been successfully applied in environmental studies. This paper presents an expert system "ES-GSI" developed by using Microsoft Visual Basic that is used to manage urban area stormwater. To acquire expert experience and knowledge, decision trees and tables are used. For measuring the expert opinion about system rules, certainty factor is used. By using Expert Choice software, multiple experts' opinion is integrated where various alternatives are available. Forward chaining inference mechanism is utilized for results assessment. The proposed ES-GSI are tested and evaluated during all stages of system development for its performance accuracy. System recommendation is displayed in report form. By ES-GSI application, having more accurate decisions will be its benefit.
