Support refers to anything which is said or done to help the offender solve or mitigate their personal or social problems: surveillance to anything which is said or done to induce the offender to conform to socially acceptable standards of behaviour.

These aims are implemented through the practice of four distinguishable but related methods.

Allocation determines which arcs in the network will be allocated to a particular node or centre; districting makes it possible to outline rapidly sets of polygons in order to define specific areas of interest (districts) and to summarize their characteristics; routeing provides a minimum path algorithm through the network, the arcs of which can be assigned weights according to road conditions, road capacity and so on.
He describes how a road network is digitized and subsequently analysed using allocation, districting and routeing algorithms.

Thus far, for instance, accuracies of land cover (let alone what is often needed, i.e. land use) determined from Landsat and SPOT imagery for the UK have rarely been higher than 70 per cent unless trivial classifications (e.g. built/unbuilt land) have been used.
The value of this information is inherently dependent upon the quality of the inference process and that in turn depends upon the complexity of the scene, the spatial, temporal and spectral resolution of the sensors and the particular algorithms used.
One solution to this is to β€˜ densify ’ the ground control and another is to use contextually based classifiers rather than the traditional, spectrally based ones.

The β€˜ cities of inner despair ’ were conceived as the breeding ground for disorderly protest, and however hard the Government tried to break the causal link between the two, it was forced to take on board the need to restore order not only through the police but through promises of help for the inner cities.
Much as in 1980–1, the β€˜ social causes ’ argument cannot be seen separately from the broader debate about the future of the British economy and society.

If the animal lived on the sea bottom, it seems unlikely that it would have eye lenses specialized for looking downwards, and we begin to suspect that the animal habitually dwelt above the sea floor.

The diversity of monitoring organizations seems just as great in other countries; numerous multinational organizations, both quasi-governmental (e.g. the UN Environment Programme (UNEP)) and non-governmental (e.g. the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED)) are also active in the field.
If we consider the environment in the broadest sense, much monitoring of it has been in progress for many years and by an enormous diversity of organizations in the UK; these include the DoE, the Forestry Commission, the Nature Conservancy, the Health and Safety Executive, local authorities, the component members of the Natural Environment Research Council (such as the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology and the British Antarctic Survey), individuals or research groups in academia, the CEGB, the Friends of the Earth, and UK Centre for Economic and Environmental Development (CEED) (1989).
Moreover, commercial monitoring of the environment is now also routine, notably to predict crop yields in the main grain-growing areas and hence facilitate the buying of futures.

If it now seems self-evident that monitoring of the global environment is necessary, indeed is even vital, the prediction of what is likely to happen is almost as important: the 170 000 people in the Maldives are understandably worried about the prospect of global sea-level change since no part of the islands is more than 2 m above present sea-level!
Yet, as we shall see below, the prediction of the activities of natural and man-influenced environmental systems requires an understanding of the interaction of processes that, in many cases, we simply do not yet have.

Figure 9.2 is taken from ESSC (1988) and is an attempt to show the interactions between environmental processes, as well as the indicators and implications of change in the state of the environment.
Given this, determining the nature of the interactions between the variables becomes a matter of major difficulty.
In essence, the figure can be summarized as showing processes within the physical climate system and within the biogeochemical one, these systems being interwoven by the global role of water and increasingly affected by human activities.
