Geoprocessing Services for Spatial Decision Support in the Domain of Housing Market Analyses
نویسندگان
چکیده
Housing market analysts typically rely on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The new Web Processing Service (WPS) standard proposed by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) offers an alternative that supports desktop GIS analysis functionalities over the Internet via a standardised interface. This article presents how the WPS specification was applied for housing market analyses and demonstrates the flexibility of the GIS functionalities that can be used in specific scenarios while at the same time providing them as WPS processes. Furthermore, the specification was also used for chaining Web Services and demonstrates that it is a viable alternative to the usage of established standards for Web Service Orchestration (WSO) such as the Business Process Execution Language (BPEL). The advantages and disadvantages of such approaches are discussed.
