Paper Abstract:
|
Due to variety and large amount of information required for urban management, sensor networks have been identified as proper instruments for data collection. For many urban management applications such as utility management in emergency situations, real-time access to up-to-date spatial information, describing a current situation, is essential. Mobile GIS is a well-known technology for such an aim. Using Mobile GIS provides decision-makers and field workers with information exchange, processing, analysis and visualization. Integration of Mobile GIS with sensor networks provides users (anywhere and anytime) with the capability of real-time access to update spatial information required for analysis and decision-making. The heterogeneities between different sensors and Mobile GIS environment is one of the main issues for developing such an integrated system. This paper intends to address utilization of sensor web environment (SWE) standards, proposed by open geospatial consortium (OGC), for development of Mobile GIS applications. Integration of these standards with Mobile GIS system creates an interoperable environment for utility management. |
