Realization of Sustainable Urban Environment through Spatial Data Infrastructures

چکیده
Our living environment is under real threat of various global issues like global warming, rising sea-level, changing weather patterns, floods and hurricanes etc as well as local issues likes housing affordability, traffic congestion, pollution, health and environmental degradation etc. All these issues are inter-related and cities are the major contributor. These issues can’t be addressed in isolation and require an integrated approach for problem solution. Spatial Information is critical for better response to these problems. But absence of required information is affecting such efforts. Recent advancement in Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) has enabled development of spatial data platforms like Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) for affective and efficient data integration, information sharing and its application for informed decision making. Better urban planning and management at local level can overcame many of the problems faced and this paper explores how SDI based on Service Oriented Approach can facilitate this process using Unified Modeling Language (UML) technique.
