Dissemination of heat wave alerts using spatial mashup technology and open source GIS
نویسنده
چکیده
Web GIS based applications and systems are becoming popular with the advancement of internet and related technologies and efforts of the open source community. Planners and decision makers are seeking web GIS based solutions as they are efficient at satisfying the needs of users in terms of availability of associated collateral information. The standards and specifications developed by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) for geospatial data and services is leading to positive developments in web GIS. GIS services defined by the OGC are part of a larger effort to build distributed systems around the principles of Service. Web 2.0 technologies, particularly Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) open APIs, XML, XHTML/CSS etc. leads towards realization of spatial mashups for GIS data and services. In this study, the spatial mashup technology has been used to disseminate near real-time heat wave alerts through a rich Graphical User Interface (GUI) based web GIS application. Further, GeoServer is used as a GIS server and Apache Tomcat version 8.0.12 is used for delivering the web services. Java and java script are used in web application development and database connectivity.
