Abstract: Modeling ecological systems requires tools from different field of mathematics and computer science including multivariate interpolation, classification, regression, statistical analysis, multiagent systems. A problem that has gained increasing interest in the last years is the objective selection of areas of conservative interest and the optimization of management measures for biodiversity conservation. Our aim is to present the design elements for a multi agent system which interprets the data from an ecological system and optimizes the management decisions. The areas and the species are automatic and dynamic classified, taking into account different biodiversity indices. We use Support Vector Machine for classification tasks and Support Vector Regression for predictions. For testing our model and system we use data from the Romanian Viseu catchment.
