Web GIS has put GIS on Web, that made it available to common public which was earlier used by few elite users. In the present paper, development of Web GIS frameworks has been explained that provide the requisite knowledge for creating Web based GIS applications. Open Source Software (OSS) have been used to develop two Web GIS frameworks. In first Web GIS framework, WAMP server, ALOV, Quantum GIS and MySQL have been used while in second Web GIS framework, Apache Tomcat server, GeoServer, Quantum GIS, PostgreSQL and PostGIS have been used. These two Web GIS frameworks have been critically compared to bring out the suitability of each for a particular application as well as their performance. This will assist users in selecting the most suitable one for a particular Web GIS application. 1.

  • The Decision Table Template for Geospatial Business Rules
    The Decision Table Template For Geospatial Business Rules Alex Karman CTO and Co-Founder Revolutionary Machines, Inc. www.rev-mac.com San Jose, Oct 13-15, 2014 1 OpenRules Now Supports Spatial Rules • Leverages the popular JTS Topology Suite (“JTS”) • Supports the Egenhofer Relationships (“DE9-IM”) for 2D points, polygons and line strings – Contains, touches, crosses, overlaps, disjoint, etc. • Supports distance and area calculations; and ranking by distance or area • Supports aggregates (max/min) of spatial rules • Supports non-spatial mereological rules – Part of/comprises • Loads Geographic Markup Language (GML) from text files with a GeometryDatabaseBuilder utility Motivation • Last year, we used OpenRules to handle business rules related to security constraints and service level agreements in a data center management project. • This year, the customer asked us if OpenRules could manage fraud detection and privacy rules in a healthcare project in the same data center. • We looked at the problem domain and saw a large number of spatial rules. Spatial Business Rules Are Everywhere • Healthcare – Hospital Referral Region, Hospital Service Area, Hospital, Patient, Emergency Routes • Sales – Supplier and buyer territories, census block demographics • Utilities – Markets are usually defined geographically • Local government – Cadasters, zones, counties, municipalities Most Spatial Business Rules Only Require a Simple Vocabulary • Describe how simple points, polygons and lines interact • Describe distances between them • Describe “at least” or “no more than” rules (aggregate spatial rules) Most Spatial Business Rules Never Use Most GIS Features • Continuous field data – Weather, climate, netCDF, raster • Slope and aspect – Digital elevation model, bathymetry, viewshed • Topology – The shoreline borders the shore • Spatial statistics – Autocorrelation, Moran’s I, Geary’s C, etc.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Although open source softwares (OSS) for GIS and Remote Sensing are rapidly expanding and im- proving in the global context, there has been uncertainty at higher education institutions in de- veloping countries, such as the department of forestry (Dfo) at Unitech, Papua New Guinea (PNG), regarding appropriate GIS softwares and hardware to acquire and use for teaching and research purposes. The paper briefly describes the characteristics of some mature OSS and discusses their main capabilities, advantages and disadvantages. Their adoption in the Dfo curricula may be ad- vantageous in the long term, considering issues of learning curve steepness, versatibility, afforda- bility, effectiveness, and documentation available on them. Keywords Open Source Software; GIS Software; Forestry Education 1. Introduction GIS is a key technology for developing countries in domains such as environmental protection, urban manage- ment, agricultural production, deforestation mapping, public health assessment, and socioeconomic measure- ments. It is defined as a system of software components that maintain a spatially aware database, provides ana- lytical tools that enable spatial queries of the database, allows the association of locations with imported graphi- cal data, and provides graphical and tabular output.

  • PROFESSIONAL Development DEVELOPMENT 1 New AP® Course Proposal GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY
    New AP® Course Proposal Geographic Information Science and Technology AP GIS&T | ProfessionalPROFESSIONAL Development DEVELOPMENT 1 New AP® Course Proposal GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CONTEXT OF GIS&T IN K-12 EDUCATION Ever since the publication of the National Science Education Standards (National Academy of Sciences 1995), a concerted and evolving movement has gathered momentum to make STEM-based learning more inquiry-oriented. The proliferation of models of teaching and learning where questions and investigations drive learning, while not new, still present challenges in their planning, implementation, and evaluation. In order to make the vision of inquiry-driven STEM education come to fruition, educators are calling for resources, materials, and tools to support STEM teacher preparation and foster the shift toward inquiry- based learning in classrooms (Wilder, Brinkerhoff, & Higgins, 2003; McClurg & Buss, 2007; Trautmann & MaKinster, 2012). The importance of geospatial concepts, data, and technology in scientific inquiry and practices is cited throughout STEM education standards and frameworks, including Geography for Life: National Geography Standards (Heffron & Downs, 2012), the Next Generation Science Standards (Achieve, 2013), the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (National Governors Association Center for Best Practices & Council of Chief State School Officers, 2010), and The College, Career, and Civic Life (C3) Framework for Inquiry in Social Studies State Standards (National Council for the Social Studies, 2013). An AP GIS&T course would therefore have broad appeal and apply to high school subjects across the curriculum. High school courses in GIS&T have begun to appear in recent years, most commonly under the curriculum for Careers and Technical Education (CTE).

  • Open Source GIS Software Applications Include GRASS, a Project Started in 1982 by the US Army but Is Now Open Source, and QGIS (Otherwise Known As Quantum GIS)
    Open Source GIS and Freeware GIS Applications An open source application by definition is software that you can freely access and modify the source code for. Open source projects typically are worked on by a community of volunteer programmers. Open source GIS programs are based on different base programming languages. Three main groups of open source GIS (outside of web GIS) in terms of programming languages are: “C” languages, Java, and .NET. The first group would be the group that uses “C” language for its implementation. This is the more mature of the groups of open source GIS, probably for the simple reason that is the group that has been working on GIS software applications the longest and has a long history of reuse of code. The libraries in the “C” group, from the base infrastructure, and include some capabilities like coordinate projection that make them very useful and popular. Popular “C” based open source GIS software applications include GRASS, a project started in 1982 by the US Army but is now open source, and QGIS (otherwise known as Quantum GIS). The second group of Open Source GIS would be the ones that use JAVA as the implementation language. JTS, central library for the Java GIS development, offers some geospatial functions that allow to compare objects and return a boolean true/false result indicating the existence (or absence) of any questioned spatial relationship. Other operators, like Union or Buffer, which are very hard to code, are offered in this group making it very appreciated by GIS developers. GeoTools, Geoserve, and OpenMap, are among the most popular open source GIS in this group of JAVA tools.
