    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.

Location intelligence is: • An awareness of relationships between location information and business analysis and operations • The ability to use the understanding of geographic relationships to predict how it impacts a business or organization • The capability to react to how location influences an organization by changing business processes in order to minimize risk and maximize opportunities Location Intelligence enables a business to measure, compare and analyze its data from business operations, in conjunction with external data such as transportation networks, regulatory jurisdictions, market characteristics or its own customers. In this section 2 - What is Spectrum Spatial? Spectrum Spatial is an enterprise location intelligence platform designed to provide organizations with a suite of broadly applicable location capabilities, including spatial analysis, mapping, routing, geocoding, and geoprocessing.

  • Web Map Tile Services Tiny Tile Server Bachelor Thesis
    Web Map Tile Services Tiny Tile Server Bachelor Thesis Department of Computer Science University of Applied Science Rapperswil Spring Term 2013 Author: Carmen Campos Bordons Advisor: Prof. Stefan Keller, HSR Project Partner: Klokan Technologies, Baar External Co-Examiner: Claude Eisenhut, Burgdorf Internal Co-Examiner: Prof. Dr. Andreas Rinkel, HSR Abstract Tiny Tile Server is a Python server that permits the user to display local MBTiles maps on the internet. It extracts the data from the SQLite database where the map information is stored in tables containing all the tiles, UTFGrid and metadata. The tiles are the map images, smaller than the screen for better performance. The UTFGrid is some extra information related with points in the map that appears in an infobox when the user interact with these points. The metadata is the information about the map: name, description, bounds, legend, center, minzoom, maxzoom. Tiny Tile Server shows the tiles composing the map on a website and the UTFGrid data on top of the tiles. It can also be used to show the getCapabilities information from Web Map Tile Service in XML format extracted by the metadata table. Tiny Tile Server supports two protocols to access the tiles: direct access with XYZ tile request to tiles in a directory or to MBTiles database; or Web Map Tile Service from a MBTiles database. The server is a part in a website whose purpose is to show how it works and provide templates for the user who wants to employ it, so he will not need to have programming knowledge in order to use Tiny Tile Server, just to follow a simple installation tutorial.

  • Geosparql Query Tool a Geospatial Semantic Web Visual Query Tool
    GeoSPARQL Query Tool A Geospatial Semantic Web Visual Query Tool Ralph Grove1, James Wilson2, Dave Kolas3 and Nancy Wiegand4 1Department of Computer Science, James Madison University, Harrisonburg, Virginia, U.S.A. 2Department of Integrated Science and Technology, James Madison University, Harrisonburg, Virginia, U.S.A. 3Raytheon BBN Technologies, Columbia, Maryland, U.S.A. 4Space Science and Engineering Center, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, U.S.A. Keywords: Semantic Web, Geographic Information Systems, GeoSPARQL, SPARQL, RDF. Abstract: As geospatial data are becoming more widely used through mobile devices and location sensitive applications, the potential value of linked open geospatial data in particular has grown, and a foundation is being developed for the Semantic Geospatial Web. Protocols such as GeoSPARQL and stSPARQL extend SPARQL in order to take advantage of spatial relationships inherent in geospatial data. This paper presents GeoQuery, a graphical geospatial query tool that is based on Semantic Web technologies. GeoQuery presents a map-based user interface to geospatial search functions and geospatial operators. Rather than using a proprietary geospatial database, GeoQuery enables queries against any GeoSPARQL endpoint by translating queries expressed via its graphical user interface into GeoSPARQL queries, allowing geographic information scientists and other Web users to query linked data without knowing GeoSPARQL syntax. 1 INTRODUCTION Tool (GeoQuery)1, a graphical geospatial query tool that is based on Semantic Web technologies. The Semantic Web has the potential to greatly GeoQuery translates queries expressed through its increase the usability of publicly available data by graphical user interface into GeoSPARQL queries, allowing access to open data sets in linked format which can then be executed against any over the Web.
