We discuss a qualitative analysis of the efficiency of the Brazilian Network for Continuous Global Navigation Satellite System Monitoring (RBMC) using the Complex Holographic Assessment of Paradoxical Problems method (CHAP²), whose premise is the organization of intersubjectivity facilitated by the use of visual representation of structured knowledge (conceptual mapping) to increase the degree of consciousness to manage the paradoxes resulting from the complexity of living systems. We also describe a quantitative evaluation using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) allowing a ranking in terms of efficiency for further assessment by a professional of the area. The outcome of this study would be useful for IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) managers to be aware, for instance, of the suppliers and manufacturers of equipment available (receiver and geodetic antenna, Internet connection and constant supply of electricity) in efficient and ineffective stations, to guide new acquisitions, among other applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
