Project Overview

Create a Prototype Framework for Web-based
GIServices in Environmental Monitoring.

Explore different Internet technologies.

Integrate/Customize different software and
programs together.

Case Study Areas: Mission Trail Regional Park
(MTRP) with ADAR and IKONOS images.
Data Warehouse

Use ArcCatalog to Create Metadata in
XML for ADAR and IKONOS images.
Data Warehouse

Create two version of metadata: FDGC Standard and Simple
version (with the most essential elements).

Use HTTP to allow users to download images.
Interative Internet Mapping

Apply ESRI’s ArcIMS software package to create a Internet
Map Server on Microsoft Window 2000 Server with IIS 5.0.
Interative Internet Mapping

Use JavaScript to create dynamic display of
remote sensing images with different map layers.
On-line Analytical Tools

Java Applets (Java Advanced Imaging API and
Java 2D API)

JavaScript (dynamic Web display,
communicating with Internet Map Servers)

Existing Software (Panoramic Viewer).
Key Technologies

Java Programming.

XML (Extensible Markup Language) for
metadata and communication with Internet Map
Servers (ArcIMS – ArcXML).

Internet Map Server (ESRI’s ArcIMS,
AutoDesk’s MapGuide, INTEGRAPH’s GeoMedia
Web Map, SmallWorld’s Internet Application
Servers, etc.)
Future Development:
