Considerations for converting a MapServer based OneGeology-Europe service Section last modified: 23 March 2016 1 Registering your WMS service with the OneGeology Portal registry Before you can submit your service to OneGeology, you must first register your organization as a OneGeology data provider by filling out the registration form available from the OneGeology web site. If you are willing and able to host your own data you will then need to fill in the Data Coordination form on the OneGeology website: http://www.onegeology.org/technical_progress/data_coordination.cfm If you are unable to host your own data for any reason, then you will ALSO need to fill in the buddy form on the OneGeology website: http://www.onegeology.org/technical_progress/buddy_coordination.cfm Next, send an email to [email protected] with the URL of the proposed WMS service. Include in this email: The name of the geographical area the name of the data provider organization (usually this is the owner of the data) the name of the service provider organization The OneGeology secretariat will check that they have written confirmation that the service provider owns the right to serve the proposed data and/or has permission from the data provider to serve that data. You will be contacted by the OneGeology helpdesk with confirmation of receipt, plus any other feedback. The service will then be reviewed for conformance with OneGeology requirements and, upon verification, the service URL will be forwarded to BRGM the ( OneGeology Portal hosts) by the helpdesk team with a request to register the service in the OneGeology Portal and catalog ( http://onegeology-catalog.brgm.fr/geonetwork/srv/en/main.home). If BRGM have any technical issues with the proposed service they will raise these issues with the helpdesk, and the helpdesk will in turn discuss theses issues with the service provider, if required.

    Implementing OGC Web Map Service Client Applications Using JSP, JSTL and XMLC Hao Ding , Richard Pascoe & Neville Churcher Department of Computer Science University of Canterbury. Christchurch, New Zealand Phone: +64 3 364-2362 Fax: +64 3 364-2569 Email: [email protected] , {richard, neville}@cosc.canterbury.ac.nz Presented at SIRC 2002 – The 14th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand th December 3-5 2002 ABSTRACT Java technologies are widely used in web application development. In this paper are described three approaches to developing Java-based web applications and our experiences with applying each to the development of client that interact with servers implementing the OGC (Open GIS Consortium) Web Map Service (WMS) specification. Also described is the installation and configuration of open source software that implements the WMS specification. The paper is concluded with some preliminary insights into when one of the three approaches to WMS client implementation is more suited to another. Keywords and phrases: WMS, JSP, JSTL, XMLC, map layer, web map server 1.0 INTRODUCTION Of the many technologies, such as Common Gateway Interface (CGI), Active Server Pages (ASP), JavaServer Pages (JSP), that are used to develop web applications, three are of particular interest to the research presented here. These three technologies or approaches to developing clients that utilise web services are JavaServer Pages (JSP), JSP with the use of tags from the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL), and the eXtensible Markup Language Compiler (XMLC). JSP is a more convenient way to write Java servlets, and allows the insertion of Java code directly into static HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) pages.

  • A CRITICAL EVALUATION of the LOWER-MIDDLE PALAEOLITHIC ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD of the CHALK UPLANDS of NORTHWEST EUROPE Lesley
    A CRITICAL EVALUATION OF THE LOWER-MIDDLE PALAEOLITHIC ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD OF THE CHALK UPLANDS OF NORTHWEST EUROPE The Chilterns, Pegsdon, Bedfordshire (photograph L. Blundell) Lesley Blundell UCL Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD September 2019 2 I, Lesley Blundell, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: 3 4 Abstract Our understanding of early human behaviour has always been and continues to be predicated on an archaeological record unevenly distributed in space and time. More than 80% of British Lower-Middle Palaeolithic findspots were discovered during the late 19th/early 20th centuries, the majority from lowland fluvial contexts. Within the British planning process and some academic research, the resultant findspot distributions are taken at face value, with insufficient consideration of possible bias resulting from variables operating on their creation. This leads to areas of landscape outside the river valleys being considered to have only limited archaeological potential. This thesis was conceived as an attempt to analyse the findspot data of the Lower-Middle Palaeolithic record of the Chalk uplands of southeast Britain and northern France within a framework complex enough to allow bias in the formation of findspot distribution patterns and artefact preservation/discovery opportunities to be identified and scrutinised more closely. Taking a dynamic, landscape = record approach, this research explores the potential influence of geomorphology, 19th/early 20th century industrialisation and antiquarian collecting on the creation of the Lower- Middle Palaeolithic record through the opportunities created for artefact preservation and release.

  • Chapter 2 Physical Characteristics of the Study Area
    CHAPTER 2 PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE STUDY AREA 2.1. Location of study area The study area incorporates part of north Hertfordshire, south and mid- Bedfordshire as well as the southwest corner of Cambridgeshire and lies approximately 40 km north of London (Figure 1.1). Coverage of the area by British Geological Survey (BGS) 1:50,000 map sheets is shown in Figure 2.1. 2.2. Bedrock geology The strikes of the solid geological formations are approximately northeast- southwest across the study area (Figure 2.2). The solid geological succession is shown in Table 2.1. To the northwest of the Chiltern Hills the Gault Clay forms a rich agricultural landscape, representing a continuation of the Vale of Aylesbury. Beyond this, running approximately from Bow Brickhill (SP915343) to Gamlingay (TL234525) is a discontinuous ridge formed by the Woburn Sands Formation, part of the Lower Greensand. This prominent ‘Greensand Ridge’, rising to 170 m O.D. at Bow Brickhill, separates the Cretaceous clays from the Jurassic Oxford and Ampthill Clays to the northwest. The oldest formation is recorded in a borehole (TL23NE1) at Ashwell (TL286390), where Devonian strata were reached at a depth of 186.54 m, i.e. 93 m below O.D. (Smith, 1992). Lying just beyond the northern boundary of the present study area, north of the River Ouse, a borehole (TL15NE2) at Wyboston (TL175572) penetrated Ordovician rocks of Tremadoc age at a depth of approximately 230 m (Moorlock et al ., 2003). The Oxford Clay of the Upper Jurassic represents the oldest formation outcropping within the study area.

V teoretické části podává práce základní přehled použitých technologií, relevantních mezinárodních standardů a teoretických konceptů na jejichž základě byla aplikace vyvinuta. Aplikace byla testována v rámci terénního experimentu v listopadu 2008 v rámci výzkumného záměru Dynamická vizualizace v krizovém managementu řešeného v rámci Laboratoře geoinformatiky a kartografie. Na základě výsledku experimentu je aplikace stručně zhodnocena a jsou načrtnuty možnosti dalšího vývoje. Annotation The thesis deals with development of an exemplary web application for on-line editing of geo-spatial data. The written part presents overview of technologies used, international standards involved and theoretical concepts which laid foundation for the development of application. The application has been tested during the field experiment testing in November 2008 as part of the Dynamic Geovisualization in the Crisis management research project at Laboratory on Geoinformatics and Cartography.
