Abstract
This paper highlights a number of issues currently facing the access, delivery and use of geospatial information (GI) via the World Wide Web (WWW, Web). Taking a practical, rather than conceptual approach, particular focus has been placed on the need for the identification and application of existing geospatial interoperable standards in addressing some of these issues. Therefore a range of solutions have been developed around the provision of land information and administration within Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. As widely as possible existing geospatial interoperable standards, protocols and technologies have been used to develop solutions to the problems discussed in this paper. The research also highlights some of the problems encountered in implementing current geospatial standards. |
