I know a faculty at University of Washington that helped on this.  One 
of the functions was to support revegetation.  Even after 10 questions 
the species lists don't reflect much subtlety, and no consideration of 
common community associations.  The only design criteria is likelihood 
of species adaptation to site conditions.  Worse than a designer, better 
than nothing.  It is evidence of how difficult it is to use plant 
preference data to model design.
