Social Values for Ecosystem Services, Version 2.0 (SolVES 2.0) is a geographic information system (GIS) application for incorporating quantified and spatially explicit social values information into ecosystem services assessments. The initial version of SolVES (Sherrouse and others, 2010) was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) Rocky Mountain Geographic Science Center (RMGSC), in collaboration with Dr. Jessica Clement at Colorado State University (CSU), to address the need to account for differing values, attitudes, and preferences among diverse stakeholders in the analysis of tradeoffs among ecosystem services (Sherrouse and others, 2011). With SolVES 2.0, RMGSC has improved and expanded the functionality of SolVES.
