Anonymized survey data from the manuscript: The role of Decision Support Tools in drought management: Insights from the Netherlands

This dataset contains anonymized survey data from a questionnaire distributed between April and June 2024. The survey aimed to uncover the range of Decision Support Tools (DSTs) utilized by water managers in drought management across various drought phases. Developed based on exploratory interviews with representatives from the national and regional water authorities in the Netherlands, the questionnaire was administered via Qualtrics, an online survey platform. It included both open-ended and closed questions, organized into three primary areas: (1) drought measures, (2) Decision Support Tools (DSTs), and (3) perspectives on model use and related uncertainties. Some questions used a Likert scale, allowing respondents to express their level of agreement from "fully disagree" (1) to "fully agree" (7). This dataset includes only the responses to questions relevant to the associated manuscript.

本数据集包含2024年4月至6月期间发放的匿名问卷调研数据。本次调研旨在揭示不同干旱阶段下，水务管理者在干旱管理中所使用的各类决策支持工具（Decision Support Tools, DSTs）的覆盖范围。本问卷基于对荷兰国家及地方水务主管部门代表的探索性访谈开发，并通过在线调研平台Qualtrics进行发放。问卷涵盖开放式与封闭式问题，分为三大核心板块：（1）干旱应对措施；（2）决策支持工具（DSTs）；（3）模型应用认知及相关不确定性。部分问题采用李克特量表（Likert scale），受访者可通过1分（完全不同意）至7分（完全同意）的分值表达自身的认同程度。本数据集仅收录与关联学术论文相关的问卷应答数据。
