Tomáš Řezník, Ph.D. Brno 2011 Author's first and last name: Zdeněk Hynek Diploma thesis name: Application of Web technologies for data maintenance while using Web interface Field of study: Geographical Cartography and Geoinformatics Thesis Advisor: RNDr. Tomáš Řezník, Ph.D. Graduation year : 2011 Anotace Diplomová práce představuje webovou aplikaci pro on-line editaci prostorových dat. 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. Based on the experiment results, the brief evaluation of application's functionality and usability is made, together with prospects for further development.

To enable this, we need homogenous data as well as proper integration methods. Geospatial data integration has been a long- standing research topic for decades, and this paper discusses the utilisation of Linked Data technology stack to alleviate the geospatial data integration, particularly in the multi-scale context. Furthermore, this paper also discusses the possibilities of incorporating symbolisation information in Linked Data along with the integrated linked geospatial data for visualisation.

However, the scales of the with the incentives from legislation, commence, thematic data and the base map are generally not and the open data trend, has led to the improvement synchronised because unlike the thematic layer, the of the availability of geospatial data, including both base map is usually a multi-scale map from an the authoritative geospatial data accessible from authoritative mapping agency and has multiple governmental Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) representations (for details, see Huang et al., 2016).

  • Wms) with Styled Layer Descriptor (Sld) for Creating Dynamic and User-Oriented Maps
    CO-434 USING WEB MAP SERVICE (WMS) WITH STYLED LAYER DESCRIPTOR (SLD) FOR CREATING DYNAMIC AND USER-ORIENTED MAPS BURDZIEJ J. Nicolaus Copernicus University, TORUN, POLAND BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Recent years has shown the increased use of Web Map Services (WMS) for publishing maps in the web environment. The basic idea behind WMS standard is to provide a simple web interface for requesting georeferenced map images (OGC, 2010). Each WMS request defines map layers to be processed and geographic boundaries for which the map will be rendered. Web Map Service, as opposed to the Web Feature Service (WFS), serves raster map images instead of raw vector data in order to enhance web map performance. Maps exposed as WMS services can be symbolized using the Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD), an XML- based markup language, which enables to create advanced rules for cartographic visualization of geospatial data. SLD schema can be used for symbolizing point, line, polygon as well as raster layers, for labeling features and creating scale dependent styles. It can also be used with filters in order to define custom classes and categories for creating thematic maps. These two open standards, officially released by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), are nowadays defining the foundations for modern web mapping. Many different kinds of Internet maps act as WMS clients, displaying thematic WMS layers. Also a growing number of desktop applications, both open source and proprietary, can now connect to WMS servers and display WMS layers along with other geospatial data, such as vector objects or raster images stored locally on desktop computers.
