  • The National Atlas and Google Earth in a Geodata Infrastructure
    12th AGILE International Conference on Geographic Information Science 2009 page 1 of 11 Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany Maps and Mash-ups: The National Atlas and Google Earth in a Geodata Infrastructure Barend Köbben and Marc Graham International Institute for Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (ITC), Enschede, The Netherlands INTRODUCTION This paper is about different worlds, and how we try to unite them. The worlds we talk about are different occurrences or expressions of spatial data in different technological environments: One of them is the world of National Atlases, collections of complex, high quality maps presenting a nation to the geographically interested. The second is the world of Geodata Infrastructures (GDIs), highly organised, standardised and institutionalised large collections of spatial data and services. The third world is that of Virtual Globes, computer applications that bring the Earth as a highly interactive 3D representation to the desktops of the masses. These worlds represent also different areas of expertise. The atlas is where cartographers, with their focus on semiology, usability, graphic communication and aesthetic design, are most at home. Their digital tools are graphic design software and multimedia and visualisation toolkits. The GDIs are typically the domain of the (geo-)information scientists and GIS technicians. Their 'native' technological environment has an IT focus on multi-user databases, distributed services and high-end client software. Virtual globes are produced by hard-core informatics specialists: programmers that specialise in real-time 3D rendering of large data volumes, fast image tiling and texturing, similar to computer gaming technology. Their users however are mostly not aware of, nor interested in the technology behind the products.

  • An Open Source Spatial Data Infrastructure for the Cryosphere Community
    OpenPolarServer (OPS) - An Open Source Spatial Data Infrastructure for the Cryosphere Community By Kyle W. Purdon Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geography and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Chairperson Dr. Xingong Li Dr. Terry Slocum Dr. David Braaten Date Defended: April 17, 2014 ii The Thesis Committee for Kyle W. Purdon – certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: OpenPolarServer (OPS) - An Open Source Spatial Data Infrastructure for the Cryosphere Community Chairperson Dr. Xingong Li Date approved: April 17, 2014 iii Abstract The Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) at The University of Kansas has collected approximately 700 TB of radar depth sounding data over the Arctic and Antarctic ice sheets since 1993 in an effort to map the thickness of the ice sheets and ultimately understand the impacts of climate change and sea level rise. In addition to data collection, the storage, management, and public distribution of the dataset are also one of the primary roles of CReSIS. The OpenPolarServer (OPS) project developed a free and open source spatial data infrastructure (SDI) to store, manage, analyze, and distribute the data collected by CReSIS in an effort to replace its current data storage and distribution approach. The OPS SDI includes a spatial database management system (DBMS), map and web server, JavaScript geoportal, and application programming interface (API) for the inclusion of data created by the cryosphere community. Open source software including GeoServer, PostgreSQL, PostGIS, OpenLayers, ExtJS, GeoEXT and others are used to build a system that modernizes the CReSIS SDI for the entire cryosphere community and creates a flexible platform for future development.

I have performed this research part-time at the section GIS Technology of TU Delft in cooperation with the Kadaster (the Dutch Cadastre), in order to get the Master of Science degree in Geodetic Engineering. Typing the last words for this thesis, I have been realizing more than ever that this thesis marks the end of my time as a student at the TU Delft. However, I also realize that I have been working to this point with joy. Many people are “responsible” for this, but I’d like to mention the people who have contributed most. First of all, there are of course people who were directly involved in the research project. Peter van Oosterom had many critical notes and - maybe even more important - the ideas born out of his enthusiasm improved the entire research.

We exploited the GeoNetwork open-source software to simultaneously organize in-situ measurements and radar sensor observations, collected in the framework of the HAMMER project study areas, all located in high mountain regions distributed in the Alpines, Apennines, Pyrenees and Andes mountain chains, mainly focusing on active landslides. Taking advantage of this free and internationally recognized platform based on standard protocols, we present a valuable instrument to manage data and metadata, both in-situ surface measurements, typically acquired at local scale for short periods (e.g., during emergency), and satellite observations, usually exploited for regional scale analysis of surface displacement.

  • The Development of Algorithms for On-Demand Map Editing for Internet and Mobile Users with Gml and Svg
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALGORITHMS FOR ON-DEMAND MAP EDITING FOR INTERNET AND MOBILE USERS WITH GML AND SVG Miss. Ida K.L CHEUNG a, , Mr. Geoffrey Y.K. SHEA b a Department of Land Surveying & Geo-Informatics, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong, email: [email protected] b Department of Land Surveying & Geo-Informatics, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong, email: [email protected] Commission VI, PS WG IV/2 KEY WORDS: Spatial Information Sciences, GIS, Research, Internet, Interoperability ABSTRACT: The widespread availability of the World Wide Web has led to a rapid increase in the amount of data accessing, sharing and disseminating that gives the opportunities for delivering maps over the Internet as well as small mobile devices. In GIS industry, many vendors or companies have produced their own web map products which have their own version, data model and proprietary data formats without standardization. Such problem has long been an issue. Therefore, Geographic Markup Language (GML) was designed to provide solutions. GML is an XML grammar written in XML Schema for the modelling, transport, and storage of geographic information including both spatial and non-spatial properties of geographic features. GML is developed by Open GIS Consortium in order to promote spatial data interoperability and open standard. Since GML is still a newly developed standard, this promising research field provides a standardized method to integrate web-based mapping information in terms of data modelling, spatial data representation mechanism and graphic presentation. As GML is not for data display, SVG is an ideal vector graphic for displaying geographic data.

  • Evaluation Form for Open Source GIS Course
    Evaluation form for Open Source GIS Course Answer Count: 38 What did you like most in the course? Why? What did you like most in the course? Why? All of it. Since it was very useful The broad structure teaching the most important techniques and softwares. I have to be perfectly honest - I completed this course (absent this evaluation) in 2011. That said, this was one of the more interesting and challenging courses. I enjoyed the exposure to all of the non-ESRI GIS platforms. Perhaps my favorite part was learning about open copyright law, Linux, and Richard Stallman. I liked that I was introduced to a lot of different technologies which I had only heard of. The introduction was broad and provided a good base for further work I liked the focus on practical exercises in this course. There was only one theoretical exercise, which I think is adequate for a course like this one. I also liked that students are challenged to try new things, even if they may look bit intimidating. In this course I liked more the section on GRASS. I found very interesting that using this software you can perform complicated tasks in vector and especially raster data. The new UI was also very nice. What I liked most in the course is that it gave me the possibility to experiment different open source softwares and that it explains well how the open source world works. I liked the presentation of different Open source software (i.e. Grass, gvSIG etc.), especially the focus on not only desktop applications but also cliet-server and libraries.
