Designing multimedia GIS for territorial planning: the ParcBIT case
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper examines the design and implementation of ParcBIT, a multimedia GIS CD-ROM presenting the information required for the development of a Master Plan for a Technological Park in the island of Majorca (Spain). The CD-ROM is the information resource of an international competition for Master Plan proposals in which world leading architects took part. Environmentally conscious planning is one of the possible fields of application of multimedia GIS and in this paper the methodological approach for the generation of the content and structure of such a multimedia georeferenced database is described and discussed. The interface and navigation issues are approached from the point of view of making accessible multimedia GIS for non-expert users. Finally, the current situation of the development tools, which makes difficult the integration of GIS and multimedia, and feed-back from the users of the application are evaluated.
