Status Report on the Project Web GIS System for College Campus to be submitted in e-governance
Abstract A project describing the spatial characteristics of the institute, G. L. Bajaj Group of Institutions, Mathura, has been planned to implement which further can be taken as an inspiration source for many of the government projects to be developed in spatial domain. A basic thought is the implementation of cadastral data management avoiding all the frauds related to the land sale and purchase such that the proper transparency should be provided to the user. This project is a web based GIS system for the spatial data management of any organisation. Key terms: Web GIS, Geoserver, Java, API, three tier architecture Introduction A web GIS is a system publishing the spatial data on the web using certain technologies either using ASP.Net or JSP connected with the spatial database. This system will provide the users with a virtual tour of any organisation or institute on the website of that institute. Approach The approach for this project comprises of the web technology of Java, Apache tomcat server and a GIS server named Geoserver. This system will be based upon a three tier architecture such that Client will query web server and the web server will query the GIS server to obtain the data related to the spatial features marked on the system. Methodology The steps of the methodology adopted are given under:
Development of GIS database using GIS technology in the form of shape files
Importing the shape files created in GIS to the Geoserver
Developing a web interface by using Java Server Pages technology
Integrating the Geoserver with the web server implemented in Java
