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.

6
Data Warehouse

• Use ArcCatalog to Create Metadata in XML for ADAR
  and IKONOS images.

7
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.

8
Interative Internet Mapping

• Apply ESRIs ArcIMS software package to create a
  Internet Map Server on Microsoft Window 2000
  Server with IIS 5.0.

9
Interative Internet Mapping

• Use JavaScript to create dynamic display of
  remote sensing images with different map layers.

10
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 (ESRIs ArcIMS, AutoDesks
  MapGuide, INTEGRAPHs GeoMedia Web Map,
  SmallWorlds Internet Application Servers, etc.)
